Learn Spanish vocabulary
Spanish is the most popular second language for English speakers — huge learning communities, endless content, and fast early wins because so much vocabulary is shared.
What to focus on as an English speaker
- Nouns have grammatical gender — learn each noun together with el/la from day one.
- Ser vs. estar both mean "to be" — the distinction is new for English speakers.
- Subjunctive mood appears constantly in everyday speech, where English mostly dropped it.
