    working on learning ASL and spanish... if anyone has any Spanish tips I would be very grateful... Also is it possible to be fluent enough in Spanish to hold simple conversations by July or am I just dreaming?

    If you practice a lot and try to speak Spanish as much as possible, I think it would be possible to be conversational in several months. My advice would be to practice every day and if your intent is to mainly be able to have others understand you, I would say don't worry as much about getting conjugations right in the beginning (though that is important). It is more important to expand your vocabulary and know how to apply the words to a sentence. What kind of resources are you planning to use to learn Spanish?

    @Lael alright thanks! I am planning on using... any resources I can find...

    Duolingo is a free resource! though it sort of just throws you right in, it has a very extensive Spanish program on there that will set you on the right track. So I’d recommend it

    @Lael thank you! I started using duolingo in the past but stopped after about a week but I'll look into it again thank you

    You’re welcome! (I get it, duolingo is not my favorite Spanish learning source, but it is pretty good for free) And this is more for vocabulary if you need a reference/supplement to whatever else you use, but spanishdict is nice. I used it especially to look up verbs and conjugation forms

    @Lael thank so much this is a huge help I was pretty much drowning in the deep end before...


    Lael replied · Oct 29, 2021

    Absolutely! Feel free to ask me any more questions about Spanish if you have them in the future. I’m willing to help out if I can ;)
