Hello.

I don't know how to say it correctly.

I want to link my life with English.
I want to connect my life with English.
I want to attribute my life with English.

I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. I don't know which verb fits there.

If it isn't natural at all, what would you say?
Thanks in advance.

I don't understand what you're trying to say so it is hard to say what the appropriate verb is.

Well, I want to say I will become a translator and languages are my passion. So, I can't imagine my life without them. I'm going to work with languages in the future. Therefore "I tied myself with languages" (not literally). Do you understand that? ;-)

You could say "I want to dedicate myself to (the study of) languages".

Or, "I want to dedicate my life to languages", since you want to use that term.
This version seems to be a stronger statement of commitment, to me.
