Estoy Aprendiendo Español
I think I wrote the Spanish title correctly! LOL. I have been studying Spanish a lot this month. Maybe 50 hours or so for the month of July 2010. I’ve learned a lot, but I have a ways to go.
I also study a little bit of Hebrew. I plan to start studying Hebrew a couple of hours a day or more (like I currently do with Spanish) when I am done learning Spanish and French to an intermediate or advanced level. So maybe within 12 months to 18 months hopefully.
I also want to learn Portuguese. Since Portuguese is so similar to Spanish, it should be fairly easy to learn once I can distinguish between “false friends” and the like – and get the rhythm, etc of Portuguese. I will also most likely study Italian to as it is a romance language and might be fairly easy to learn after learning the other romance languages.
I’d like to be at an intermediate to advanced level in Spanish, French, Hebrew, Portuguese and Italian within 18 months to 24 months. Of course, I would still love to be fluent in English! (My native language)
After learning Spanish, French, Hebrew, Portuguese and Italian, I’d like to maybe start with German or Chinese (Mandarin). Maybe I’ll do both at the same time, but focus on Mandarin.
There are other languages I’d love to learn too, like Japanese, Arabic (Modern Standard Arabic/Fusha, Levantine and Egyptian), Hindi/Urdu,Swahili,Swedish, etc. Many more. So, we’ll see if I can get around to all of them!
Well, bye for now!
