How I learnt Spanish! My Journey to Fluency

Hello everyone!

Welcome back to “English With Lucy”!

Today I will bring you a slightly different video.

Regarding a question that we all love to ask me recently

Now it’s time to tell everyone how I put the second foreign language

Become fluent

Perhaps most people know

But I also believe that someone does not know

Is: I can speak fluent Spanish

If you guys want to hear me speak Spanish

You can click on the link above

I made a movie in Western

About some differences

And my previous anecdote

These were all happening when I was learning Spanish.

OK, then why don’t I speak Spanish in this video?

But speak English?

I want to say to you

This will be a good opportunity to practice listening

I also hope to make you more motivated

Go to learn a foreign language

Prior declaration

I was very lucky on my way

But I don’t want you to feel like saying:

“Hey, Lucy’s western can speak so well

It’s all because she has these things! ”

“She’s so lucky; there’s an amazing learning environment!”

No! I just want to share with you and inspire you

There are also demonstrations

Let you know your level of foreign language

Can also be upgraded to a higher level

This is really very helpful to you

If you want to improve hearing,

Understanding and pronunciation

But if you want to go further

You can give it a try

This is also very helpful to you

And I have tried Lucifers from all

Have received very positive feedback.

OK, now it’s starting

My Spanish from zero to fluent tour

First of all, for me,

“Smooth” does not mean “hundreds of correct”

“Fluency” is for me

You can talk without thinking

It’s as easy as speaking your mother tongue

I will use Western language to dream

I experienced a romance in Spain

I can use jokes in English to talk about farts

So I really think that my Spanish is very fluent

You may not agree

I also know that I have a slight problem with pronunciation

For example say “ERRE”

I can play tongue

But sometimes I can’t figure out words that use tongues

Sometimes I can’t distinguish “peras” (pear)

And “perras” (dogs)

So please don’t mind too much

Okay, my journey of learning started from this time

I grew up in a very small village

On the outskirts of Bedfordshire, England

Learning Chinese is never an important thing in my school

Basically, British children

Must learn French at school

From about ten years old

Then I was impressed, at the age of fourteen

You can discard it

I don’t remember when I was 13 or 14

Therefore, you only need to learn

Almost three years of language is fine

This is the practice of public schools, not all private schools.

are different

I started studying in public schools

Then I went to private for four years

Turn back to public

I was studying French at the time

But I’m super nasty

I mean I like French

But it’s really hard to learn!

There are forty classmates in my class

And French lessons are notorious

The most boring lesson in history

I also agree to describe it like this

Anyway, I later went to a new school

Suddenly discovered that I want to learn two foreign languages

I continue to learn French

Also choose between Spanish and German

I ask other people which one is easier to learn

Everyone says it is Western.

I took a Spanish class

There are almost 25 girls in the class because I’m studying girls

I’m also in the lower class in the lowest class

Because others may have studied for a few years in Western

I am exactly a rookie

I didn’t even visit Spain.

Anyway, I sit in class

Super boring super delirium

I don’t want to learn Spanish at all

Really want to rush

Imagine getting rid of Westerners quickly

When I was 16 years old, it was actually possible

But I have to go and sit in every class

“hola” “gato” …….

then

I was surprised to find

Can understand Spanish yourself

When other classmates are entangled

grammar

I think it’s full of logic

But I don’t want to manage it unreasonably

It’s boring to sit there

But I found myself thinking about Western even after school!

Past tense? Full of cool

Also reasonable

Hey, I was a poet and I almost didn’t find myself.

Okay, anyway, I decided

I think I should get good results

For a whole year

If you really learn something, then

Then I read the western language seriously

I think the progress in the class is a bit slow

So I asked to skip to the top level

They also allowed

In the end I tried my best to get the highest score

I’m still 16 years old

But I’m really very hard

I still remember when I was taking a shower every night

Now it will be

Just very clearly remember

When I take a bath, I speak in myself

I like to hear

Your own answer

Later I decided to apply for Spanish at A level.

A level is the last two years in your high school

To take a test

You want to apply for this university

I got three A levels

Biology, Chemistry

Of course there is Spanish!

Since then

I ordered Spanish

I don’t just love Spanish

I also fell in love with a Spanish man

They are handsome and sexy

“Sexy” Haha

It’s really attractive to them

So I started dándole caña

I started to pay a lot of effort

I was very lucky in high school

I go to public school

Why I am so lucky because

No one wants to learn a foreign language

At that time, there were 200 people in my session.

One learns German

Two people learn French

Three individuals learn Spanish

No one else

But I feel good

Because so I can have a small class

And the teacher is amazing

Her name is Flores.

Although her name is Flores (Spanish flower), she is Irish.

She is very inspiring to me

Promote me in a positive way

After studying for a year in the West,

I hope I can go one step further

Because after this year I learned western

I don’t think I have even DELE B1

Because the progress is really slow

But I hope to go one step further

I was working in a pub at the time

I save my salary

Plan to buy tickets

Learn Spanish in Seria

Now you ask, I don’t know why Seville was chosen.

It may be because of my first Spanish teacher

She said she went to Seville and felt so beautiful

Then I was thinking, “OK, I must go to Seville.”

I don’t know at all that Sevilla had a very strong

Andalusian accent

At the time, my words and accents were completely standard western students.

Then completely understand what others are saying!

Anyway, I spent a week in school

The school is called CLIC

This is a chain of international schools

Really great

If you want to strengthen the Spanish language course

I highly recommend it!

I live with my host family

I also met a lot of Spaniards

Finally I and some Spanish boys

Become a good friend

Think about it now feels a bit crazy

A 17 year old girl walks in Seville

Riding a motorcycle

Late return

The exam was certainly not taken for granted

Because I really want to learn Spanish

The first time I went was August

Weather super hot

After that time in August I saved money again

I went back for another week in October

Revisited in April

At the time I was still 17 years old

A boy who has met me for a while

I met him again there

Long story short, we are in love

In fact, we are also considered to have loved it.

We ended up interacting for four years

I will not speak his real name

I must respect his privacy

Anyway, I was deeply in love with this Spanish boy at that time.

Fortunately, he does not speak much English

We communicate with each other in Spanish.

Chat on WhatsApp every day

I will go there to find him

I have a good relationship with his family

We finally lived together in London

Live in Seville

Live together again in London

This is really a big driving force for me to learn Spanish.

Make me fluent

After spending a year with him

I think I speak very fluently in Spanish

It looks like the Spanish language is my mother tongue.

Based on our live together

I usually go to work in English

But when you get home, it’s Spanish.

So I really want to learn will

Now you may think

“Great Lucy, I’m happy for you.”

“You found a Spanish boyfriend”

“But this will help me learn foreign languages?”

Ok, I want to tell you some tips.

The first is to imitate the movements of the mouth

When my ex-boyfriend was talking

I will observe his mouth

There are shapes

Then I started to understand

The relationship between sound and mouth shape

We will read English “D” like this

But in the West, the “D” will read this

It will be a flat shape

I noticed and observed him

Because he is from southern Spain

He spoke differently, for example,

“estoy” will eat s

For example, say this sentence

Then I took it seriously to imitate his mouth type

Instead of just reading the same word

And another kind of experience I have is

You must be immersed in this language

I live in Spain

This means that I must communicate in Spanish everyday.

Because I want to communicate with my boyfriend

When you want to learn a language

You must be motivated

“I want to have an exam”

“This way you never have to learn English.”

This reason does not make you fluent

You must seriously think

“Why do I want to learn this language?”

Then start to this goal

My original intention is because I want to be able to flow smoothly

Express my thoughts in my own language to my boyfriend

This is my learning motivation

God, I really did my hard work for this goal.

Another kind of thing you can do is

Grasp every learning opportunity

What I said do not let the opportunity slip away

Mean to tell you not to think like this

“Hey this is the word I won’t be able to”

“I will check it tomorrow.”

Because you obviously will not!

I shot a movie about learning words

You can watch it here

In short, I basically don’t understand what my boyfriend said.

Phrases or expressions I have not heard

I will interrupt him and ask him to explain it to me

If he can’t explain

I will write it down and check it

I am meticulous in this regard

You can’t just memorize

Those words and phrases

Because some of them are the usual fixed usage

They may not be meaningful or irrational

I remember there was a word that made me struggle for a long time

“Vaya”

They use it like this:

What am I thinking about “vaya”?

What do you mean?

Then my ex-boyfriend didn’t know how to explain

I can only find the answer

The old woman must know what vaya means!

And when can I use it!

Finally I know

Yeah (;▽;)ノ

I also did one thing

Just don’t be afraid to ask others to repeat

In fact, people are full of me

When I ask others to repeat what they say

Or I don’t understand a joke

They will explain to me slowly

If they are impatient

I don’t want to bird them either

Well, there is one more thing

That is, I often watch Western YouTubers

I really like Hola Soy German,

And Auron Play is also full of love

Because he is so funny

Often do some trick videos

Basically it is to make people laugh

Invincible hilarious!

I also like El Rubius

He is a live host

I will treat their videos as background music

Always listen to them

I also read Spanish news every morning

This is really very helpful

I also read the Harry Potter version in Western

Because I really like the English version

Western looks more interesting

This is also the principle that you must keep in mind

Is that you must be interested

You have to be motivated

For me, look at a financial book written in Spanish.

It’s all about killing my will to learn

I may not finish it at all

In fact, I didn’t want to touch it

Yes, choose something related to you

If you like photography

At the same time want to learn a foreign language

Find a film that shoots teaching

English speaking

Then very good

You built an English lesson for yourself

Now I want to tell you a few things

If I don’t speak the foreign language fluently

I can’t enjoy these things that I love

The first is to have two different me

Everyone describes me like this

When I was speaking English

I’m not so vulgar

I look professional when speaking English

I also think I

More polite

Especially the way I talk

But whenever I’m talking about Western

Probably because I learned from someone

He will swear

There are also many sayings

With a strong tone

This also subtly established my personality when speaking Spanish.

Of course this is my nature

But found two different kinds of themselves

Also full of good

The second is having two different senses of humour

This is really great

Because English jokes cannot be translated into Western

Western jokes cannot be translated into English

Joking in English always uses pun

Play some word games like

I’m going to think again if I’m joking in the West.

Spanish usually tells a lot of interesting anecdotes

We like to use our own experience

Make people laugh

This is just my explanation

But it can have different fun

It’s great to share with friends in different circles

Nor can they translate between them

Also speaks fluent foreign languages

It really opened my eyes

Make me more confident

Now if I heard someone on the train speak in Spanish

I will immediately run to say

¿ De donde eres?

I will say God, where are you from?

This is something I will not do when I speak English.

The last is

I really enjoy speaking Spanish for a minute

When you can reach

Like to speak a foreign language

You will make rapid progress

You will also find more fun

OK, this movie is really long enough

Hope to promote your learning

There is a little bit of inspiration for you

Yes, I have a language that I want to learn

Native boyfriend

But you don’t have to find one

This may be difficult to achieve

You are also absolutely impossible to learn English

And to make a boyfriend

I was very lucky

But you just need to learn something from my story

Then apply it to yourself and add it to your story

Your story may be about to begin

It may have already begun

It may even be coming soon

Do your best

Make good use of resources and time
