Is the use of "osmotic"proper here? Languages are better to be learned osmotically instead of accademically. Does the sentence sound right? Thank you in advance.

You can use the adverb 'osmotically' here but it sounds a bit odd to the ear. It would be better to say 'Languages are better learned by osmosis than academically'.

I think 'osmotically' is probably technically correct here, however it sounds a little bit awkward to me. I think it would be more natural to use the phrase 'by osmosis' instead. So, 'Languages are better learned by osmosis, instead of learning them academically.'

Good idea but without academic approach it will be a poor learning.
