53 years it is lot of time mister de Vries

It has taken me 53 years so far and I don't know all the words. The English language changes as new words become popular and old words lose their meaning. 8 hours a day seems extreme to me. More than likely it would be counter productive. I can only absorb so much and then the mind wanders. I believe is more effective to have shorter learning periods and some fun. It would make sense to me to structure the learning more precisely to the students need rather than a general all purpose approach. There are many words I do not use and forget because they are very rarely used. When I use a computer program I think about what my intention is and then focus on what is required to complete the goal.

Thank's JJ:-)

I believe that this type of learning would be effective, however for some people it may not be healthy. Immersion (using a language all the time) is surely the fastest way to learn. So long as you do not go mad (haha), I think it is a good idea to try to learn this way. I hope you have enough time! As for the amount of time, it takes to learn a language, there are many different ideas. However a guide for English speakers is the FSI guide. II have linked it below. Polish is in Category Four, so according to FSI it should take 1100 hours for an English speaker to learn Polish. So I suppose it should take the same length of time in reverse. I would expect learning English to take about 1100 hours of study. http://www.effectivelanguagelearning.com/language-guide/language-difficulty
