Speaking and listening is always a problem. I'm just plain horrible at it, even in my own native language.

Although, if you strive to get another language you will get proficient at it eventually and it will help you with your own language too.

I'm trying to get a handle on all those little Spanish words like por, de, ser, le, para, que, etc... The hardest thing for me is to speak....given time I can construct a pretty good sentence, but if it were an emergency, someone would surely die before I could get it all together. Then I'd just have to say....Oh No!

What is so hard for me in learning Spanish is memorizing the conjugation of verbs and applying these in actual sentences. It does not help me to memorize the conjugation of every spanish verb if I do not understand how it is used in a Spanish sentence. I memorize and then I forget.

I find the most difficult part deciding when I need to alter a word,
such as dónde. ie. Adónde or Vino, i am not even sure how to change that word yet. or how I could I just don't know what calls for a transfiguration/ alteration/ modification. That and it's more or less my third day. |

That's why I advise to translate a novel from Spanish to English. You have to write first in Spanish what you want to translate. Look in the bilingual dictionary for the words in order to find out what they mean in English. Try to make out how each word is pronounced in Spanish. Check that it is legible in English. Write again in Spanish what you forst wrote in Spanish.
This way you get "accustomed" to Spanish. |

@Vita: Memorizing is useless if you don't associate a method to do it with a specific kind of verb. Try using a conjugation manual (not a list of conjugated verbs), so you will have a model to conjugate the different groups of verbs and their regularities/irregularities.
