Learning any language is neither easy nor difficult. If you have decided in your mind that you want to learn a language, then nothing will be difficult for you.
Today we are talking about the Spanish language, so first let’s take a look at this language. Spanish is the world’s fourth-most spoken language overall after English, Mandarin Chinese, and Hindi. It is one of the six official languages of the United Nations and many other international organizations. Alongside English and French, it is also one of the most taught foreign languages throughout the world.
But now the question arises, “Is Spanish really the simplest language to learn?”
Well, if you know English, then we can say that learning Spanish is going to be a little easier for you because there are many similarities between the English language and the Spanish language. There are a lot of English-Spanish cognates, the definition of cognate is reserved for words that exist in two different languages and have the same root or origin for eg,
action and acción,
celebration and celebración,
declaration and declaración,
elegant and elegante.
There are thousands of words in which just a letter is added at the back, but still can be easily understood by the English speakers. The pluralization, vocabulary, etc. of these two languages is also very similar. You must have noticed that many words in English are not pronounced the way they are written, but in Spanish, most of the words are pronounced like the words written. All these things make Spanish a simple language to learn.
If we talk about the grammatical part of Spanish then there may be some difficulties. There are a variety of personal pronouns in Spanish that we don’t use in English. Gendered Words, Irregular Verb, sentence fluidity are some things that can be a bit hard to understand.
Overall, if you pay attention to the phonetics of Spanish and do some hard work on its grammar, then it will be easy for you to learn this language.
Every foreign language is spoken with an accent. Not only pronunciation but the rate of speech matters a lot when it comes to achieving a native-like accent. Japanese, Chinese and Spanish speakers tend to be high on the speech rate i.e. they speak faster. To learn any language it is very important to listen to it, from this you can learn a lot more than the pronunciation of words and fluctuations of the voice.
To improve Spanish language learning, you can take online classes, watch Spanish movies with English subtitles, and try to read a Spanish book. Discipline is very important to learn anything, so if you try to learn a language on a regular basis even for 25 minutes, then it will not be difficult for you to learn it.
People who are weak make the excuse that learning this language is very difficult, it will take years. We have already told you in this article that if you know English; it is going to be quite easy to learn Spanish.
