Hey all! When we are new to a language and before learning it for the first time, we have several thoughts and questions in our mind and amongst them, the most important one is what should I learn first when I start learning the language?
Learning a new language can be daunting and we can be in a state of confusion about where to start.
So here I will discuss what to learn first when you decide to learn Spanish. So, in this case, opinions may vary from person to person according to requirement.
Some may learn it for necessity while some may take it up as a hobby. But here I would like to point out some very common things which we should learn first while starting with learning Spanish. And I believe these are the basics without which one can’t proceed forward with the learning of a new language.
So instead of being afraid of being in a state of confusion, my suggestion would be to just dive into the language.
The first thing I would prefer to learn about Spanish is the basics of the language, which includes the history of the language, its origin, its specification, and a couple of very common words.
Because I believe that without knowing the history of the particular language I won’t be able to learn the language properly.
Then I would prefer to learn the pronunciation of the letters. It is often said that learning Spanish is relatively easier because once we learn how to pronounce the letters, we can sound out any words easily. There are no such complicated pronunciation rules.
Then comes learning of basic salutations and greetings like
¡Hola!
¿Cómo estás?
Buenos días,
Buenas Noches, etc.
Then comes learning about short self-introduction like
What’s your name?
Where are you from?
What do you do for fun?
What’s your job?
Where do you work? etc.
Then I would learn vocabulary related to family, time, day, months, describing objects, and vocabulary for regular requirements. Learning vocabulary is very much important to learn any new language. If we have a base of vocabulary, a stock of phrases, and along with that an idea of Spanish grammar then we are ready to start practicing the language.
While learning grammar one suggestion would be not to mug up and memorize grammar at once, instead of that we should understand grammar bit by bit. This will help us to learn grammar smoothly.
Another suggestion would be to jot down words and start practicing them from the very beginning, this habit would help us to polish our pronunciation as well as learn new words regularly and learn the language fast.
We should try to learn a few new words daily. And along with that, we need to frame small phrases with those words and this is very beneficial for learning the language very fast.

So these are the common things that would guide you to learn Spanish for beginners.
Just follow these basic steps and make sure to have good resources and then pledge to stick to it. Be Confident and start learning.
Just remember that you can face difficulty whenever you start but that’s not a big issue. Just take a resolution and start learning with complete confidence! Follow your learning routine regularly and then only you will learn Spanish very fast. So without any hesitation just go for it!
