I understand the grammar and everything but my vocabulary is limited.

i have packets, and examples in the book, i tried doing some activities with the grammar in them, but nothing will stick in my head, any good ideas?

I've studied Spanish long time ago when I was in high school. I loved it so much. So I'm thinking may be I should start studying it again. I don't remember anything at all, no grammar, no vocabulary , nothing. So what can I possibly do to master it as quickly as possible. I really get bored if I kept studying and didn't get a noteworthy output.
I want to start writing and speaking like a native speaker but I don't know how?!!

Note: I have this audio book + pdf , I listen to the native speaker reading the article while reading from the pdf. But her accent seems very good. I can never be as good as her. Any idea how to improve my accent too (Please don't tell me to talk to native Spanish speakers because I'm not going to be able to do so, It's all self study)

I get annoyed when I hear people saying that Spanish is the easiest language to learn. Do people think that they can make a Spanish word simply by adding an O at the end of English words? Those who say Spanish is easy because of its simple grammar have obviously never tackled the Spanish preterit tense. It has irregularities that would blow your mind. Spanish might be easier, but it is by no means the easiest. It has 14 tenses, which is more than French and English, and sometimes there are no clear rules on which to use, you just have to go with your gut. Also, have you ever notice how fast Spanish speakers speak? It makes learning to listen very frustrating. I've been learning Spanish for five years, and I still haven't mastered it.

i suck at grammar ( for english and spanish) because i haven't put much effort in learning the classifications and didn't think it would matter because i already speak spanish.

With all this illegal amnesty crap it seems learning English might of been a bad move. What do you think? And yes I'm being ironic.
great its good to see everyone is a freakin grammar coach on this thing, and oh yeah english is a second language to me. and it was a royal pain to learn.
ok, to those that cant read, I LEARNED ENGLISH BEFORE I GOT TO AMERICA! ok =)

I was wondering what the easiest way to learn a language is? I have a hard time learning in a classroom. I can memorize words, it's the grammar and structure I have issues with. I also lose interest quickly. Are there certain programs that work better than others? I was thinking that the Rosetta Stone programs might work, but they're SO expensive. Does anyone know if they work as well as they're said to? Or if there's something out there just as good and not as epensive? I would prefer a program that can keep my interest, and also address my issues with grammar and structure.

Finally, should I learn Spanish or German? I want to learn German the most, but I know learning Spanish will be extremely useful soon if I stay in the USA.

I'm a non-native. I have a pretty advanced level and understanding of grammar, but I make lots of careless mistakes. I don't talk as fast as some people, but I can communicate well, really love the language and I would love to show others how to speak it. I have this fear about a student speaking better than I can. Would I make a good teacher?

Ok, no language is easy, admittedly, but I have to say out of all the languages one could learn, Spanish certainly is not the easiest. It's grammatical structure while resonably regular is significantly different to English - people say Spanish is a very regular language but it has enough irregular verbs, werid conjugations, general irregularities to drive someone round the bend.

The main positive things for an second language learner is that Spanish has a relatively easy pronouncation system (although not always), and is resonably phoenetic.

However, in my opinion, it is by no means the easiest language to learn for an English speaker. If you were looking for the easiest language to learn, then I feel that would be the main Germanic Scandinavian languages of Norwegian, Swedish and Danish. Those languages have a grammar strecture that is extremely close to English, the verbs don't generally conjugate and there are far less irregularities than Spanish.

I've never understood this myth about Spanish being easy, in my opinion, it's a complex language riddled with irregularities and annoyances for the second language speaker. It's a beautiful language once you learn it, but it's certainly a bumpy ride to get there, there are easier languages you could pick, in my opinion.

I'm Puerto Rican and i don't know all the spanish i should know. I want to learn but i don't want to take a course at school. I don't want to learn grammar, i want to learn words i should know. I can pronounce words perfectly as i read them, i just don't know what i would be saying.
I'm a 17 yr old Puerto Rican and i cant speak spanish. I need a way to learn it. Is there any place online that i can learn it for free?

Im 29 years old and want to go to a country in Mexico or Central America to learn Spanish. I can speak fairly well now, but would like to learn better grammar and how to read and write. Price doesnt matter as long as its a strong program.

I've never read a Spanish book/novel before, so do you have any short ones to recommend where the grammar/vocab isn't too difficult to understand? Thanks.

vocab? grammar? any help would be great thanks

I mean where they also explain the grammar and not just basic tourist sentences?

Languages that I'm currently fluent in are English or Dutch.

Since I have never learned another language, how am I suppose to begin and keep going..Do I start Grammar or Vocab? Or both at the same time.

I have took someones advice. Once I am finished with Spanish...I will learn other languages that are related.

My language tutor told me the other day that my grammar is Spanish is better than in French, my native language. Does that mean I write better in Spanish then in French? As well as speaking?

I have to write a few things for a spanish project. Please tell me if the grammar in this sentence is correct. I'm trying to write "She is looking for a funny man that likes animals." Here is what I have written: "Ella está buscando para un hombre chistoso que le gustan animales. " Do I have it right?

I've got a final for Spanish 3 coming up this week, and apparently its a final that rarely anyone passes. I'm already failing the class, so i NEED to do well on this final to be able to pass the class. I struggle with memorizing vocabulary, verbs, and grammar. basically everything about the class i struggle with. Does anyone have any study tips or pointers to make this easier on me and in result, i actually comprehend the information?

one that contains grammar, vocabulary, comprehension and pronunciation, and of course free.
I also want to ask how to get an online friend that might help me improve my spanish as I learn?

I learned Spanish from my Mexican mother and from my high school. Now that I'm in college, I'm kind of embarrassed that people who aren't Hispanic have a greater mastery of the grammar, vocabulary and the subtle nuances of the language, and although they might not be able to carry on a conversation in Spanish as easily as I can, I often find myself being corrected. I was hoping if anyone new of a free and easy way that I could brush up on my skills. Thanks.
