Languages Since I was a kid I been learning Spanish, I didn't understand that it wasn't the same as English. Though, it didn't sound the same as English. My parents are not fluent in Spanish, but they would ask me simple questions and I would answer in English. My dad also taught us some German, but not much. He would ask me " Where's mom?" or " How are you? in German, and I would answer in English.I understood, I just didn't know how to respond. When I got older I did, but English was the only language I knew. Then when I was in 6th grade, my dad suggested I should take Spanish. So, it's been almost 7 years and I'm still not fluent. I learned more on my own with music, than I did in class. I can understand more, and read some. It takes time for to translate it, since I don't use it. This semester is my last semester of Spanish, I don't have to take it in college which is great. Though for the past year I been studying Korean, I was learning a lot fast, but I forgot some of what I learned because I been studying Spanish for school. I been Studying Spanish, Korean, and Chinese. Chinese is hard, but I started to understand it. A lot of characters are familiar because I took a semester of Japanese a couple of years ago, I failed Japanese that semester. I'm way more familiar with Korean after watching many movies, dramas, and songs.

Since I was a kid I have been learning Spanish. I didn't understand that it wasn't the same as English, though it didn't sound the same as English.

I don't have to take it in college which is great. For the past year I have been studying Korean and I was learning a lot fast, but I forgot some of what I learned because I studied Spanish at school. I studied Spanish, Korean, and Chinese. Chinese is hard, but I started to understand it. A lot of characters were familiar to me from the Japanese semester I took two years ago. I failed Japanese that semester. I'm way more familiar with Korean after watching many movies, dramas, and songs.

Very well written!
