I've got a job offer for Frankfurt and am thinking of relocating there with my family. Problem is that none of us speaks any German, and I heard it's really hard.
Any advice on how long it takes to get a basic grip of the language? And how can you get by in Germany in the meantime (with English)?
Learning German

The biggest challenge is German grammar, it is very confusing and complicated.
I am a German teacher and I never teach or explain any grammar rules in my class.
Sounds strange? But what if students advance faster because they don´t have to worry constantly about using the right tense.
Grammar banging slows down any learning process , remember when you were a kid and your mom taught you English? Did she mention any grammar rules?
BTW, the majority of Germans does n´t know much about grammar but somehow they manage to speak German.
Have you considered taking classes via skype?
It is actually better than regular one on one classes,
if you are interested add me on skype, my username is alamohostel.
Cheers and viel Spass in Germany!My suggestions

(I guess it's no longer needed), but I'm writing this for others who are maybe confronted with the same problem.
If you live there, then is relatively easy. Read magazines, watch movies with German subtitles (also German voiceover, it's almost always possible).
Don't hold back from speaking German, even when you suspect something is not right. Ask the others to correct you always.
Don't speak English unless absolutely necessary. You will learn German faster.
I also published a free Android application that helps with the gender of the nouns (one of the more complicated parts of the German language). It's called "Der-Die-Das":

German isn´t a hard language. Maybe the grammer is diffecult but when you speak a littel bit you can leran it in 1-6 months. You must learn for it and than you ´ll see thats not so hard. ;) Of cours for you it ´s listen hard but you need time. That´s the simple secret :)

German is difficult to learn, but if you really need it because you want to go to German, you have to study it. All in all immersion you will learn quickly. Speak it as much as possible, it helps!

my mother tongue is Spanish,then english,and i ve been learning german for less than a year and i dont find it that hard...the problem is people block themselves from learning because IT LOOKS HARD,which doesnt mean it is indeed.Same with Japanese,it looks terrible hard and almost impossible to learn at first,but pronunciation is way MUCH easier than symbols.
Plus i have attention deficit disorder at a high level,if its not so bad for me it means it can be less complicated for almost everyone willing to learn!
Really difficult

It really depends on you, most of all how much you practice. To get to a goood conversational level of German, you probably need at least 1-2 years of VERY intensive studies :)
