Answer 2

Aunque no comprendía muy bien el español, muchos españoles podían hablar inglés bastante bien para que yo entiendiera. (The way you had it, if it weren't for the English, I would have had difficulty understanding what you meant.) Even your English is a little strange toward the end of the sentence. I would have said, "Although I didn't understand Spanish very well, Many Spaniards could speak English well enough for me to understand it."

I looked at it and posted my response. There are some differences. If someone else does it, it could turn out different. Everybody has their own style. - Daniela2041, Oct 30, 2015
