it's rather easy, but remember irregular conjugations are a little hard, and memorizing all the vocabulary is tough.

It's pretty easy if u know a bit of french to start with, like I did, cuz sum words sound the same. The hardest part (like any other language) is learning the verb conjugations. The easiest part is learning feminine and masculine words (much easier than in french). The best way to learn it is to watch movies or read books in spanish, and see if u can understand what they r saying.

Spanish is easier than French or Italian, because it has been simplified. The hardest part is probably the many irregular verbs. I suggest that you learn Interlingua first. A speaker of English or another Germanic language can learn Interlingua in about 15 days, on average. Once you know Interlingua, you can learn Spanish in about half the time. As far as I know, this is the fastest way to learn Spanish.

If the only other language you know is English, then it'll be difficult. Knowing languages like French already will really help simplify things - the words KIND OF resemble each other which helps to remember vocab better. Also, anything masculine or feminine is obvious due to the "o" or "a" at the end of the word (ie: Tio = uncle, tia =aunt). Maybe your a grammar extrordinaire, but if you're having issues with English grammar, Spanish grammar is also going to be a big issue.

So there: Vocabulary will be easiest to learn while you'll probably struggle with grammar.

Arabic is an excessively complex language for local-audio system of English to be taught if they've no history to begin with. You must ask your self a few main questions: a million. are you going to have opporunities to make use of Arabic as you might for those who found out Spanish? two. Is Arabic going to be crucial adequate to you to spend all the ones hours upon hours of tough paintings? three. Are you real interested and influenced? These are questions simplest you'll reply, however for those who found out Spanish, you might indisputably have considerable possibility to make use of it at all times, even correct right here within the United States. Of direction, there is not any intent why you ought to decide on one or the opposite--but when you have already got began finding out Spanish, then I'd propose sticking with it, first. At least paintings with it until you get to the factor wherein you'll learn a journal article in it, a newspaper article, or a useful novel with minimum aid from a dictionary, and adequate to be ready to keep conversations approximately every day subjects.

Any language can be hard to learn if you don't practice. Try watching movies in Spanish, songs and reading.
I believe the hardest, however, is being able to stick to only one regional accent and knowing that some words which are OK in one country or region, may be taboo in others.
The best of luck!

Well, i've been taking spanish for about 5 years, started in 6th grade, and what i've found thats that hardest are when to use certain conguations, if you use estar or ser, por or para... etc, and also remmebering which conguations go for which, like the preterite or imperfect tenses, and the irregular forms of the verbs. but really, after a while, its like english.... you can just tell something is wrong by the way it sounds... all in all, it really easy, coz i mean, its just memorization!

I'm in Spanish 1 and I think the hardest part is learning all the conjugations of all the -ir, -er, and -ar verbs and being able to apply it to everyday use.

it takes time to learn any language but Spanish is one of the easier ones of you speak fluent English. the hardest part for me are all the verb tenses and conjugating everything. that part is much more confusing than English. good luck, though. it's a good thing to learn.

well it's not that hard accept maybe for the alphabet and the accent otherwise its quite easy. if you know french it makes it a bit easier :). it's best to get class from someone in person or email because lots of website make you pay or are free but at the end you really don't learn much or they teach to you really bad.

See when websites teach it it's kind like a robot like say hello they'll say it like a robot they won't put expression like "hey sup"? if you want i could teach you spanish i'm a native spanish speaker :) gl.

I have found writing is easiest because the language is phonetic. The hardest part is memorizing all the verb tenses.
