Canadian here, I am fluent in English, French and Russian. Currently learning Spanish as well. ~~If I can do it at 15y, you can too~~. Edit: Uyuu pointed out that its actually easier when you are young and I agree.
Yeah its easier when you are young
I had no patients or focus to do it when I was younger. I actually learned more Japanese and Chinese in the past 3 years, than I had ever done in childhood or university.
Good luck with that!
Thx!
~~Pretty sure I can't since I'm no longer younger than 15~~
In all seriousness though I'm curious how you've been finding Spanish, just if it kinda fits with my experience where, coming from French, it seemed overall quite easy to learn and improve (especially on the comprehension side of things.
Its not that bad. I joined a school with spanish classes this year and the others had 2y more of knowledge on me as I did not learn Spanish at my previous school, but I still managed to pull off a year average of 82% without studying. If you know french, then its a lot easier to learn Spanish as the verb and sentence structure is similar, not speaking about the amount of words that are the same in both languages. Knowing Russian helps as well as it also has some similarities. If Inhad a tip to give, it would be to not be shy trying to speak as there aure no negative and the positives are major. If you mispronounced a word, someone will just correct you and you will likely not repeat the same mistake again instead of you being shy to say something wrong.
If you wanna practice Spanish, I'm Italian with fluent Spanish and a decent English (I think so 🤪)
