Anyone have experiences learning a second language? What did you learn and how did you learn it? How long did it take you?

My mother tongue is Hindi but apart from that i am well-versed with English and I know little bit of french too. English was compulsory in my school and i learned french in college. now-a-days u can easily learn a second language thru internet.

My native language is English. I learned
Portuguese, which is my wife's native.
She moved her at 15 and had to learn English
as a teen. Imagine how hard that was.
I learned Portuguese from her over a period
of about two years but it wasn't like sitting
down to study it like in school.

I'm trying to learn Spanish. Just out of interest. I know the basics. It's not difficult but just time-consuming. I think it's harder cos' it's just something that I'm doing as a hobby as opposed to learning the language out of necessity. So, I just pick up a few new words here and there.
