Amber, no one can teach you Spanish. You have to learn it, which is a LOT of work. By studying Spanish, you will realize how hard it is to learn a foreign language, and will appreciate foreigners who speak English where you live (I hope). Of course, people can help you along the way, but we can't wave a magic wand over your head.
well who knows spanish really good and can help me
I was thinking of the advanced vocabulary that students learn in high school and college, which is necessary to be a truly fluent adult speaker. Naturally, even kids as young as 7 or 8 can speak with nearly flawless grammar. But true fluency, by my personal definition, requires knowledge of everything that a native speaker of similar education would possess. For example, for me to be truly fluent in Spanish, I would have to know about not only grammar, but also vocabulary, jokes, current events, slang, pop culture, etc.; everything that a native with a college education would know.
I'll never reach that goal, or even come close to it, but that's OK. As with many things in life, it's not the destination, but the journey that is fun.
thank you but it's like i dont understand it when im sayen it the correct way
I agree with most of it, but... 20 years''? According to that, Spanish would be almost three times as hard as the (second) most difficult language in the world. No child -according to some studies- needs over 11 years to speak with proper grammar. Turkish children, apparently, are the fastest, having perfect grammar by the age of 3.
Anyway, making mistakes is an integral part of learning a new language. The more you make, and strive to correct, the faster you learn.
Forget about not messing up. Leave your pride on the shelf when you speak Spanish. You will sometimes sound like a baby or an idiot, or both, but that's OK. Just do it. The more you study and speak, the fewer mistakes you'll make. Remember, even native speakers require about 20 years to become truly fluent, so don't expect miracles.
