master spanish

Just do it!

i know enough spanish to speak like a five-year-old, but i’d like to know enough vocabulary and grammar to speak like an adult and use it whenever i can!

So I’m going to argentina in 5 weeks and I really need to get my spanish on. I studied abroad in Valencia, Spain 5 years ago and came back with near-fluency. But since then I haven’t practiced that much at all.

Luckily, I found these 2 articles from Tim Ferriss:

http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2007/11/07/how-to-learn-but-not-master-any-language-in-1-hour-plus-a-favor/

And I purchased my parents the book “How to learn spanish in 10 minutes a day” and I took a quick skim through it. I remember more than I thought I would, but I need to still beef it up before I go.

I also found my advanced spanish grammar notebooks from when I was abroad as well as my little book of ‘words that I needed to learn’ that I made based on my experiences in spain.

Now I have to be accountable and just do it.

when i said i wanted to ‘master spanish’ i didn’t mean i wanted to become fluent and learn every word in the language,
i wanted to know as much as i wanted, and needed, to know.
i passed gcse with an a grade, so i feel like i can happily say that i have achieved this goal.

Ive always wanted to learn spanish, and im finally learning! but its taking me ages, and i want to be able to speak and write fluently by the end of 2010

deseo aprendo mas :)

I’m going to be more specific

I lived in Spain and my boyfriend is Spanish, so naturally my Spanish is pretty decent… but not what I would call fluent. I would like to know Spanish at the level I know English, including medical terminology.
I will try to watch more internet TV in Spanish and make a vocab list!
