Jerlene Posted November 23, 2018 Posted November 23, 2018 My native language is polish. I lost it after moving to America at 12. It took me about 3 months to be fluent. What's your first language and how long did it take you to speak English?
o-o Posted November 24, 2018 Posted November 24, 2018 My native is spanish. It took me all the primary school/ high school to learn English kinda of properly.
Jerlene Posted November 25, 2018 Author Posted November 25, 2018 Wow. You spent all of your school years learning English? Was it a required course or you chose that?
Shortie861 Posted December 7, 2018 Posted December 7, 2018 My native language is English and I am still to this day English. I have learned other languages such as German, French and some Spanish but never really needed them and only really knew the basics. German was something I learned in school, French was something I learned from family as I have French family and Spanish was something I learned myself because I wanted to and because I had a friend who would periodically speak Spanish to me because I couldn't understand it at first.
killamch89 Posted December 29, 2018 Posted December 29, 2018 My native language is English and I am currently learning Spanish on my own - learning a new language is really fun - a bit on the frustrating side at times but still fun nonetheless.
Alyxx Posted December 31, 2018 Posted December 31, 2018 My native language is Norwegian but I've been learning English just as long as Norwegian since I grew up with a lot of English games and movies on TV.

Everyone has to agree that English is the hardest language to learn. Even native speakers (like myself) have trouble with it lol - I know I'm going a bit off-topic here but why are there so many rules in English?
killamch89 Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Just imagine...if you want to confuse someone who knows a bit of English, all you have to do is ask them about adjectives etc. and most would be absolutely stumped. 😂
Alexander. Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 My native is English. In primary and secondary, I learned the basis of French only understood the basics of the language to this day. As much as it's frustrating at times, it's really interesting to be taught about different ways of speaking around the world. I'm planning on advancing my knowledge and improve my french speech skills.
