French ~ Spanish????

Question

Last year, not by my choice I took and completed 1st year French. I had a very hard teacher and have learned well, this year I don't know what to do. I like French, and do wish to learn more, but my aspiration has always been to learn Spanish. Is it easy to learn two languages at one time, or maybe within the same high school time?

In college could I learn Spanish, enough to be fluent, if I take French in High School?

Help!

Answer 1

lol were both in the same boat kinda??;)

im learning french in secondary school(high school to americans, im irish) and i like it. but i really wanted to do spanish. i couldnt take spanish in school so i bought a spanish coarse so i could learn at home, at my own pace. also, when i go to university i intend on taking it in the first year.

take their free demo for spanish, and see if u like it. also, take french 2 and see if u mix then up??

i rarly mix them up, there are some areas that u need to watch out for, but other than that ur fine.infact alot of irish people mix up irish and french sometimes and there nothing alike lol:L:L

it would be woarse if u were learning spanish and portugeuese together as there really alike. or spanish and italien.

hope this helps=)

God bless.

Answer 2

It is better to learn one language at a time. French and Spanish are very similar and you would get confused. If you want want to be fluent in Spanish, start it now and concentrate on it.  Buena suerte!

Answer 3

I recommend you to first finish French and later Spanish. Both are Romance languages, coming from Latin, and you might be confused if you study both at the same time
