Spanish speakers learning English: FAQ

Quick answers to the most common questions about learning English if your native language is Spanish.

How long does it take a Spanish speaker to learn English?

Spanish speakers typically take 600 to 750 hours to reach English fluency. This is faster than most language pairs because Spanish and English share thousands of cognates — words that look and mean the same thing.

What are the biggest grammar differences between Spanish and English?

The main differences are noun gender (Spanish has it, English does not), adjective placement (after the noun in Spanish, before it in English), verb conjugation for each pronoun, and the more frequent use of the subjunctive in Spanish.

Is Spanish to English translation difficult?

Spanish to English is one of the easier translation pairs. Both languages share Latin roots, and about 40% of Spanish words have recognisable English equivalents. The grammar gaps are manageable with regular practice.
