Hi guys, I want to inform my spanish friend of my learning, what things did I write wrongly in the following...

Hola, he estado aprendiendo español, pero no conozco nadie que puede hablar español asi que es muy dificil para mi practicar. Entonces, yo encontré gentes de españa en el internet, voy a se encuentro la semana que viene. Estoy muy feliz sobre esta. Espero hablar contigo pronto en español. besos.

It's meant to say roughly:

Hello, I have been learning spanish, but i don't know anyone who can speak spanish so it's very difficult for me to practice. However I met some spanish people on the internet, I am going to meet with them in the coming week. I am very happy about this, I hope to talk with you in spanish soon. Kisses.

Thanks for any help. X

Lewis asked:

Was there anything actually wrong in what i wrote though?

Yes, you had some errors.

1) You needed the personal "a"

2) You needed the subjunctive

3) "However" = sin embargo

4) "Gente" is singular

5) "Espero que" requires the subjunctive

Hola, he estado aprendiendo español, pero no conozco A nadie que puedA hablar español. Asi que, practicar es muy dificil para mi. Sin embargo, encontré gentE de españa en el internet y me encontraré con ellos la semana que viene. Estoy muy feliz. Espero que hablE contigo pronto en español. Besos.
