1) If you are less than 6 months old, don't worry about it.

In fact, the language acquisition device starts working at the age of 2 and starts loosing efectiveness at the age of 6.

I do not agree, when I was 1 I could speak, that's what my father said (I guess I needed the words because I needed to think ). I still remember my thoughts when I was 2 (and I used words to think).

I agree - girls seem to start speaking much earlier than two years old. I guess they need the practice for later.

No, we don't need practice, but time to say all the things we need to say.

By reading and writing, provided you can do that in own language.

If you do not know grammar in your language, do not worry about it in Spanish until you are accustomed to reading and writing in Spanish.

Práctica

Yo creo que se debería aprender los básicos , como los tiempos verbales y otra regla de gramática. Luego podría escuchar los nativos con más confianza

Hola,

How do you develop the skills needed to comprehend speech?

Gracias.

Really I have reached the objective with the practice daily in the websites, but anyhow I didn't reach the high knowledge of the language.

Maybe some grammar would help you

In English or Spanish?
