I think it is possible. I think using a good book for learning the language and some language partners is a great way to learn. You can learn the basics of the language from the book and put it into practice by talking with people.

I would recommend you try to use Skype or something similar for verbal communication, because it can be much more difficult than reading and writing. If you do chat with people, you should be specific and let them know if you want to be corrected when you make mistakes, because many people find it rude to constantly correct when they understood you.

That's how I began studying languages, and I liked it. I think, in some ways, it was better than a class and a teacher because I could learn at my own speed. I will say that I'm not fluent in either language I've studied, but I have a good start! Good luck with your studies!

L'aïd el-fitr Eid al-Fitr

Hello, today it's is aïd el-fitr Eid al-Fitr so I wanted to introduce non-muslims people to it for them to so they can understand why today is a celebration day (or "a day of celebration") for muslims arround them!
As you maybe might know, muslims has have to fast (not eating or drinking from the sunshine sunrise to the sunrise sunset) during a one month a per year, the Ramadan. During this mounth, we try through this fast to be better people through this fast in many differents ways. In deed, we learn to get closer to God by learning about religion, closer to people's needs and farther from the material and our pulsion desires. So Ramadan is not (isn't) just not eating or drinking, it's as well also a physical as and mental abstention. In this point of vue view, it's a hard test for us and we need to use the lessons learnt (American spelling is "learned") this mounth during the rest of the year, and we try... But it's not as easy as it seems and many difficulties prevent us from focalising focusing on the most important things, so I thinkg Ramadan mounth the month of Ramadan is a good reminder for us.
Thank you for reading, if you have any question about Ramadan mounth the month of Ramadan or Islam, I would be pleased to answer you in the best way I am abble to!
And for all the muslims here, aïdekoum moubarak (I've seen "Eid mubarak" in English) عید مبارک

Great post! The blue marks are corrections and the green are suggestions to sound more native.

A couple things to remember:

1. We always capitalize I in English, unless you're being very informal (like a text message to a friend).

2. A space between the final word and the punctuation (like !) isn't necessary in English.

3. Cognates from French aren't always spelled the same (I have the same problem in French!)

Keep up the good work!
