Any Learned Spanish Speakers Here?

[-deleted-]

Thinking of self-learning Spanish again. Had some resources from before. Is it worth it? How have you benefited off of it so far?

Spanish is like the second most widely spoken language....

I just like knowing wtf people are talking about so I learned....


You ain't gonna learn Spanish unless you surround yourself with Spanish speakers or move to a Spanish speaking country....

I'ma try to hit up Panama in the summer...so I can get better...

You can't learn Spanish by yourself. You have to practice speaking with other Spanish speakers. Listen to their conversations, too. If you learn a new phrase, use it as much as possible so it becomes part of your vocabulary.

When you make a mistake, don't get upset when they correct you. Just learn from it.

What's your motivation for learning Spanish, breh?

No shame in my game, I learned it for this bad Afro-Mexicana

Not a good idea because Spanish will ultimately brainwash you and make you forget that you're black.

yeah...it's honestly not that hard, but don't rush it and immerse yourself in it...go to sleep with Univision playin in the background...listen to the music...look up the lyrics and translate them...try to sing along to the songs...if you gonna do Pimsleur, do that, but don't dismiss other shyt either...grab a Spanish for Dummies book and go through that even if you done already learned the shyt on Pimsleur...d/l the Duolingo app on your phone and hit a lesson or few a day everyday (it only takes about 5 mins per lesson...do it on your lunch break)...download the Google translate app and translate random sentences...grab them free newspapers en spanish and read them...

i was honestly lucky cause i live in a latin area and had people to talk to...still ain't 100% but i'm impressed with my skill and spanish speaking people are even more impressed...

edit: actually, the best thing i've done to help me learn the language is text with people in spanish using the Translate app...it'll help you put words to real live conversations that you actually have, not the touristy shyt the language learning programs will teach you...you catch on from there...

Chequea el hilo mio "aprendizaje de lenguaje" en el foro "6 figures, 6 certs." Allí yo puse un montón de información sobre el español.

La mayoría de lo que he aprendido era de estudio independiente sin embargo lo estudié cuando estaba en escuela intermedia. Utilicé toda esa información como base de todo que aprendí del idioma.

Well he did say he's trying to learn Spanish "again" so maybe he did learn the basics already in high school. I took Spanish from 8th to 12th grade and I just expanded on what I already knew after I graduated.

In my city, everyone had to take a language or they couldn't graduate. Fukk I look like taking German?
