What is the best way to learn Spanish?

We Answered:

Go to a Spanish speaking country! or, go to anyplace that teaches English as a second language and talk to the students anout speaking Spanish with you. Watch Spanish television, like Sabago Gigante or any of them. Read Spanish newspapers that are always in Spanish markets or stores. Listen to the Spanish TV on programs such as I have named, because there is no plot to follow and you can get an idea of the meaning of words. It may be difficult , because in Spanish it is not spoken as English is spoken here, In Spanish, the words are supposed to flow into each other, whaer as here we enunciate each syllsbyle. In Spanish a consonant at the end of a word is not stressed as it is in English. That is why Spanish speakers have a problem with words like has,, had and have. They do not concentrate on the hesitant stop in English and prefer to have the words flow. Also, go to the library and it is free to check our Spanish courses. Just listen until it becomes familiar to you. You can learn vocabularly in many ways, books, CDs, etc. If you start to speak, the Spanish are very helpful and are complimented that you have made an effort. You don't need to know how to give the Gettysburg address. I speak Spanish and when I don't have the word, "Yo invento" or say several words and it works. My grammar is terrible, but I say " Yo no hablo Espanol, pero yo no tengo gramatica, pero yo mucho gusto hablar Espanol. Y yo no conoco bastante palabras!!! Just talk and listen you are younger than I am and have more time! Muy bueno

You will learn not only speaking but writing and grammar. It is a useful resource. Also you can always volunteer/work at places with a heavy spanish speaking population. This will give you a free but similar experience to being in a spanish speaking country

What's the best way to remember Spanish words and learn the language?

We Answered:

One time i played this memory game in school and after it told me that one of the best ways to help remember is to make a mini story using the words.

One of my teachers told me a different way to help remember my vocab words. They said to make a connection with yourself to help remember.
