Do I need to speak perfect English to become fluent in Spanish?

Question

Actually I know very little English and I am learning Spanish... So is it a problem for me or not...?

first i think a sentence in mind in hindi and then traslate it in english and after that(becoz i m beginner) convert it into spanish... so what i have to do for better in spanish...

Answer 1

Well, not really. We can learn several languages and that doesn't mean that one depends on the other. The good point is that one language helps the other one. I mean, there are usually similarities among them and that may help us. You should try hard to get to your goal. I am sure you'll get it.

Answer 2

You should have a basic understanding of verbs, adjectives,adverbs,nouns and be able to apply this from the language you already know into Spanish.

Answer 3

It would help. If you were to speak Englsih perfectly,it would mean that you are a highly diciplined person. And,of course, that trait(dicipline) would help you to learn any language. However, if you are average like most of the world's population well then,just do the best you can, one step at a time.

Answer 4

You do not need to know a single word of English to become fluent in Spanish. However, as a student you do need a language in common with those teaching you. So pose your questions in the language that you will best comprehend the answer. If you wish to become fluent in Spanish, I would suggest using Spanish. Your answers, however, will be limited to those that can understand you and have the ability to write an intelligent reply.

Answer 7

Hi, aliaas

Have a look at our lessons. The teacher, Paralee, speaks fairly basic English, no complicated structures or sophisticated vocabulary is involved, so you shouldn't have problems with understanding. And by the way, what's your native language?

Answer 8

HI alia, welcome to the forum, :this is an English - Spanish site, but you need not be proficient in either language to become fluent.

I don't know your English level, however, do have a look at our English lessons, on this site, you might become fluent in both languages

What is really important is that you use correct spelling on this site. Look at my corrections to your post, please remember this is a learning site
