I have been in the US for about 5 years. I learned English in the first six months which I think is pretty good. I speak two languages, English and Albanian fluently. I even made my own language: X. With that in mind, how long would it take to learn Spanish? Also, can you give me some sources that would help? Possibly, video sources. Give me some benefits of learning Spanish. Thanx!
if you don´t go to a Spanish speaking country like you did with the USA, i think that to be fluent in a language you have to study it for at least a year but if you go at a slow pace it would take 2, of course its up to each language and each person
forever!! Im native spanish speakers and will never learn the whole thing!! but don’t be scare is very simple once you understand how it works!
If you enjoy learning languages, it is very easy.
I would recommend going to a bookstore or library and getting some good Spanish resources.
well…it can sometimes take a little while to learn a new language…especially spanish!Try speaking to other ppl who know Spanish.Like a friend or something.Or try using Rosetta Stone.its a cd that comes in all different languages.I saw it on t.v and it looked like it could work.i’ve never tried it but it seems ok to use and it might help a lot!I hope it works for you…!
ok look since those other idiots have no idea where to begin, i ll start you off. first of all some people pick it up easier than others, i suggest getting online tudors which can help you get the basics, such as alphabet, pronunciation, articles, masculine and feminine terms, ect. that should be the foundation. once you kind of know what your doing, see if theres maybe someone who knows the language so you can practice with them, if you dont use it you’ll forget how to speak it so dont waste your time unless your going to use it often. another factor is dialect different areas of spain for example speak different dialects, if your planning on going to mexico then it will be much different than traditional spanish. if you practice all the time, i bet you could be not speaking but fluent in about 4-5 years, meaning your speaking as well as your first language. if you want to be able to just be pretty good and able to communicate then about 2 years. the best language learner i could recommend you is Rosetta Stone I think you might do even better if you get that.
Spanish is probably the easiest language for a English speaker to learn. Michel Thomas does good hearing and repeating courses on CD as does Pimsleur.
