Ummm I knew what I was posting. Didn't use none of that google translate shit.

Languages are hard to learn to speak fluently and all.

Really spike, really ?
I knew what I was saying on the basic things then it started to get complex, the only reason my translations came out right was because I know the way the grammar for different language.
Yeah speaking fluently is really hard, although you will get there eventually, I sound fluent when I'm speaking most Japanese but then there is parts you hear me struggling.

Well I can read and write and speak what I'm reading just fine and dandy, but to communicate with another person in that language, that's tougher.

I'm like a special person that has to sit there and think about what was said. Pick out words and such, and think of what you can use to respond.

It'd be nice to just be able to speak, without thinking like I'm sure we can and all use a bunch.

But yeah, basically tough to learn a new language, though I'm cool with how much I know in all those.

I think I am fluent in English, but that thing where you need time to process what has been said and then consciously think about forming responses is what still drives me mad about my Spanish, even though I love that language. It's the disadvantage when all the internet is in English. Like in this forum, my English is challenged daily – my Spanish is only in uni or when I choose to watch a movie in Spanish.

All I can do is replay RE4 and RER in Spanish and hope it'll improve my listening comprehension and broaden my vocabulary.

Here in the US just about everything is also in spanish. I studied it 4 years in high school and did 2 semesters in college. Once in awhile I'll just switch everything to spanish and see if I can understand what's going on.

Of all those languages I mentioned, I'm only fluent in one, guess which one for 1,000 Points.
