La mejor manera de todas para adquirir fluidez en español es conseguir
una novia o novio que es un hablante nativo de español, que sólo sabe hablar español y estar con ellos 24/7. Entonces mirar la televisión en español con ellos y asà sucesivamente hasta la cama. Es lo que he hecho yo. |

Right.
Back in 79, I met this Chilean in California, who married this beautiful American girl. The girl ended up speaking like a Chilean, and the guy didn't even know how to say Hola in English. |

Muy interesante.
He hecho lo mismo con varias novias de habla hispana. Aprendà mucho español pero ellas no aprendÃan mucho inglés. Me sentÃa un poco culpable, pero yo querÃa aprender español más de lo que ellas querÃan aprender inglés. No es mi culpa. |

Your Spanish must be perfect, you´re such an untiring learner ! I don´t know if Infatigable is untiring or not.
Congratulations on your will power. Cita:

¿He mencionado que durante dos años enteros solo veÃa la televisión en español no viendo la TV en inglés en absoluto? También estoy aprendiendo la lengua italiana y haciendo muchas de las mismas cosas para aprender italiano que he hecho para aprender español. Por supuesto el italiano es relativamente fácil sapendo el español. Esta es otra de las ventajas de aprender español. Una vez sabiendo español las otras lenguas latinas son más fáciles de aprender.

una novia de habla hispana? Tener una novia que solo habla inglés y nada de español? En mi caso, mi novia hispana miraba telenovelas en español todas las noches y yo miraba las con ella. Despues y el dia siguiente hablabamos de lo que habia pasado en las novelas. Ella tenÃa revistas sobre las telenovelas en el idioma español y me gustaba leer sobre los actores en estas revistas todo en español. Mis novias de habla hispana me hablaban durante horas en español. Me enseñaron mucho vocabulario en español. La inmersión total pues. Por no hablar de hacer el amor en español. Te quiero tanto vida mia! Eres la mujer más hermosa del mundo. Bésame mucho, como si ésta fuera la última noche juntos. Te adoro vida mia. Cuanto me quieres? Estoy totalmente enamorado contigo! Eres muy linda! Me haces el hombre mas feliz del mundo. Eres el amor de mi vida. Me has extrañado? Te necesito tanto vida mia! No hubiera aprendido nada de esto y mas sin mis novias de habla hispana.

How to get fluent
I can speak Spanish very well and yet I still ask myself how it actually got that way.
It all started when I decided to do a Spanish course in Spain many many years ago. I wasnt even learning Spanish at the time and didnt do it at school either. Anyhow, I decided to go for it and in those days it meant going to the consulate (where I found some flyers), writing to the school for info, sending off the application form etc etc. I went to Granada in a school called Instituto Espanol de Granada - it doesnt exist any more. I booked for 4 weeks, 20 lessons a week, but ended up staying for 6 weeks. What happened in those 6 weeks is a blur - eating, drinking, partying, lessons, meeting new people of all nationalities, speaking Spanish, excursions... And at the end of the 6 weeks I could communicate in Spanish. I could even talk to the barman in my favourite bar about the soccer on TV - something Id never imagined possible just 5 or 6 weeks previously. The following year I did another 4 week course (Proyecto Espanol school) and, as with the previous year, learned tons but all in a blur which left me thinking "how did that happen". Last year, more than ten years after the first course in Granada I decided to do another course (with Estudia Espana this time). In the 10 years Id had little or no contact with Spanish but was surprised to find out how much I still knew. I had no communication problems really. And the 4 weeks was just like the rest - blur... learn... blur... learn. I guess what Im saying is that the best way to become fluent is to go to a Spanish speaking country and do a course but also get out there to the bars, cinema, speak to people (they dont bite!) and immerse yourself. One thing I have learned over the years is that the fears and worries we have about speaking a foreign language, making mistakes etc, is absolutely not necessary. The schools are great for giving you the the grammatical guidance and security but speaking and living the language is the ONLY way to get fluent. |

Speaking of going to a Spanish speaking country to learn Spanish reminds me of a joke I heard years ago:
In the U.S. state of North Dakota on the Canadian border a high school student is in his room at night studying his Spanish homework. His dad walks in and asks him what he's doing. The kid says he's studying his Spanish but says what good is it to learn Spanish because nobody around North Dakota speaks Spanish. The father says that's true but some day son you might take a trip to Los Angeles, California. To understand this joke you have to realize that even though Los Angles, California is in The United States there are more Spanish speakers in L.A. than many Spanish speaking cities in the 21 Spanish speaking countries around the world. In fact after Mexico City and Guadalajara Los Angeles is the third largest Spanish speaking city outside of Mexico. I just read there are 69 million Spanish speakers in the U.S. Half of them speak English too. Also there are 6 million students of Spanish in the U.S. Última edición por Villa fecha: February 27, 2014 a las 09:25 AM |

I think reading doesn't make you fluent in Spanish. At least for me, it doesn't work. I learned tons of vocabulary, read books in English and practised with different softwares written and spoken Spanish and grammar. But speaking stayed a problem for me. I'd advise you to look for intercambios (they are free and you both benefit from each other) face to face or via Skype and regularely. If it's very important for you to improve very fast you should consider going to a language school for some weeks. I have been to one for several weeks because I couldn't communicate fluently. Then you'll be forced to speak and have a way more motivating surrounding in order to get absolutely into the language.

SÃ
SÃ, yo me voy a utilizar el método de chileno. Llegué a la misma conclusión antes de unirse a este hilo. Es casi similar a la lectura de mis propios pensamientos. Elijo 'meridiano de sangre(Spanish Edition)' porque me parece interesante la prosa ambos en inglés y español. He estado estudiando español ahora como adulto por cuatro meses. Me siento preparado para este tipo de inmersión. Sólo el tiempo lo dirá!
