Moving To Spain To Learn Spanish

[poli]

I don't think anyone over six years old learns new languages quickly and easily, but learning when you're older helps you see the amazing mechanics of language. It's a communal map of the human brain. Besides living in a Spanish speaking environment, and taking courses, learning songs and lyrics (particularly boleros because they are slowly sung like ballads) will help. Luis Miguel had a very popular disc dedicated to boleros a few years ago. Download it, find the lyrics in Spanish on line and find a English translation if you need them. Listen to the songs and follow the lyrics in writing. If you like female singers, Claudia Acuña sings slowly and accurately like any great ballad singer, and you can do the same with her songs.
