The FSI Guide to Learning Foreign Languages
The length of time it will take you to learn English is partly dependent on how similar your native language is to English. The US Foreign Service Institute Guide categorizes languages into various groups based on their similarity to English. These groups in the FSI are known as language families, and they range from category 1 to category 4. While these frameworks offer valuable insights, it's important to consider them as rough guidelines rather than strict rules.
