Re: The Spanish Learners Thread!Hey all
I try to learn a bit of Spanish whenever I have some free time so I'm at a very basic level at the moment. So hopefully I'll find some good resources in this thread, as well as advice.
I think this is a brilliant channel for learning Spanish (though I believe it's Latin American Spanish) and the teacher is fantastic!

Re: The Spanish Learners' Society!Hola todo! (does that even make sense lol)?
A former GCSE student here re-learning spanish potentially for use for work in South America in two years time. I'm using spanishdict.com and its been useful so far (even if the woman's voice is annoying! ). So far i'm finding that readin text it comes back quite fast (e.g. the posts above), however, saying and writing stuff is very hard! Just can't remember the vocab i used to have. Lots of work ahead of me!
May ask a few questions if freetranslation can't answer them. For now, in my broken spanish (and before i've learned to type spanish characters - doing that tomorrow):
Por que aprenden otras personas espanol? Solo los examenes?
