私は日本語で「nothing」の言い方を分かりません。今日、何も考えません。仕事で外言葉を使う人になりたかったら、毎日課題的な勉強のよていをしはじまらなくてはいけません。
I don't know how to say "nothing" in Japanese. Today I thought about nothing.

If I want to become someone who uses foreign languages in my job I have to start doing a challenging study regime everyday.

ありがとうございます。「かなり」の意味は何ですか？

quite a lot (of)って感じ。課題的な勉強だと不自然な感じがしたので。

"a challenging study" is a natural expression in English?
I changed it to quite a lot (of) because it would take a certain amount of time and effort to master foreign languages.

I was using 'challenging' to describe the 'study regime' and not intending 'study' as a noun. It works in english but I'm sure your phrase sounds much more natural in Japanese and it gets at the heart of what I was trying to express regardless of the changes you made so thank you very very much. I learned something new today :D

Yeah, I felt here "regime" sounds like a plan as you wrote よてい（予定） in Japanese. :D
The first thing that comes up in my mind with the word "regime" is "Ancien Regime" in France.
Can I think of regime as an equivalent of plan?

"get at the heart of" is a good expression! Thanks, I learned something new, too. :)

In this context they can definitely be thought of as equivalent, though regime usually implies a certain strictness where a plan might not.

Thank you for your correction!

  • 仕事で外言葉を使う人になりたかったら、毎日課題的な勉強のよていをしはじまらなくてはいけません。

  • 仕事で外国語を使いたかったら/使うつもりだったら、毎日しっかり勉強をしなければなりません。

 
On second thought, I thought this would be more natural and better.
しっかり means something like sufficiently, like do what needs to be done.
But しっかり has other several meanings, so please check it if you want.
