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