No - Smaller is Better!
Summary
Scientific research indicates that we learn most effectively by taking in small pieces of information, applying them practically, and then building on this foundation. As we accumulate more knowledge, our minds naturally organize and connect everything, using previous information to create a well-rounded understanding.

Studies reveal that assimilating small bits of information, practicing them, and then gradually expanding our knowledge is the most effective learning method. Our brains thrive on making connections, organizing information, and using past lessons to form a complete picture of understanding.
What Does This Mean for You?
Avoid starting with large and daunting projects, like massive foreign language books. Instead, focus on manageable tasks.
Take a novel, for instance. Start by memorizing vocabulary from just a few paragraphs before moving on.
Why not start with the most widely published book globally?
Even if you're not religious, the Bible can be an excellent resource for language learning. It's available in numerous languages, and there are many online resources offering free texts and audio clips.
Concerned about outdated language?
You’re right that the King James Version with its "thees" and "thous" isn't ideal. However, there are modern translations available in many languages.
Search online for terms like "modern Bible translation French" or "modern Bible translation Spanish" to find suitable resources.
Starting Small
Begin with shorter chapters and gradually tackle longer ones. Create vocabulary lists, learning a few words at a time. If you encounter difficult phrases, seek help in online language forums where native speakers often assist with nuances and meanings.
Download audio clips, listen frequently, and practice pronunciation. Start by whispering, then progress to speaking aloud with the narrator.
A recommended approach is to begin with Psalms and Proverbs. Each chapter is a standalone piece, making them easier to digest. Work from the shortest to the longer chapters.
At the end of this article, you'll find a link to a page listing the chapters in order of length, along with resources for online Bible texts and information about various translations.
Another link provides access to multiple search engines, assisting you in finding the tools you need.
Remember:
Take baby steps and embrace repetition. This method mirrors how infants learn, and it remains effective for adults as well.
Good luck with your language-learning journey. Make it as enjoyable as you want!
