I've studied Spanish, French and German-- plus a touch of Latin just for fun.

Learning Spanish was the most difficult for me because it was my first experience with a foreign language. French has the same grammar, just different vocabulary, so that was easier.
German was harder for me with the accent-- but still very enjoyable.

I took up Spanish for a semester in college which I really enjoyed. Some of the words are the same to my native language, which is Filipino, so there was already some sort of familiarity present which I think helped in learning the language. But in terms of conjugation and nouns, it's very different from what we knew, so that proved to be challenging. Learning a new language also entails a lot of practice, but I really think it's worth all the time and effort.

I currently live in Australia, and I have a Bosnian friend who would speak Bosnian or whatever to his family when I was around. I just think that's really inconsiderate. So now I think to myself "hey I hear this kind of stuff everyday but the main offenders are the Asian people. If you come to Australia learn english and freakin' speak or get out, you would expect the same if I went to Asia, wouldn't you?

So I am currently learning Mandrin, which is their main language, so when I hear them bad mouth Australia in goggle-de-**** I can tell them to like it or get the hell out in Mandrin.

I learned to speak French fluently over years of study in school. I am now a French teacher-- and I have never been to France!!!

I just loved to speak it so much, that I would practice with native speakers as often as I could. If you love something, then usually you will do it well.

Bonne chance!

I'm learning English.
The most difficulty is the mount of vocabulary I memory is too small.^^ So whenever I read something English, I always meet the new words! I can't understand the article altogether! And...my listening is also very poor!!!...That's all.

But ...you know, when you can understand what you read , you'll be the happiest person in the world!

I'm learning French- I'm half a semester into French 1. It's a high school class with a good teacher, and I've no problems with using what I've learned in writing for class, but speaking it makes me a little nervous.

The best way to learn is to date someone from that country.

I dated a french babe. The first thing I learned was:

Encore encore
and Fatiguer fatiguer

Its awesome, but only if you really like it. I took french in High school and I plan to continue it now in college. Its easy and so worth it, but thats because I love it. If you start, then try to stick with it because everything seems hard in the beginning.
