I was wondering if anyone else speak fluent Spanish,I 'm Hispanic
and I think's neat when others speak a language that I know how to speak,It makes feel me comfortable knowing that they
don't discriminate against Non-English Speakers.

Not yet. Maybe in a couple more years of Spanish classes.

I'm Hispanic too. I feel exactly the way you do. I speak some Spanish. I'm currently taking Spanish in school and I speak to my parents in Spanish sometimes so i'm not fluent yet. I'm almost there though. :D

I think I'm going to take up spanish again. I've studied so many languages, but spanish is so much more practical when living in the U.S.
If my friends decide to start up again with it, I've thought about having a "spanish chat" at my website for practice.

Welp.....yes and no. Understanding it and writing it, I'd say I do very well. But speaking it, like, pronouncing the words..... haha! I have a problem with that

Fourth year here and I can read and write most anything. It's just when it comes to speaking is when I get nervous and start to go through graphs in my head, which takes a while, so it's not a very good thing. The worst problem is talking in the past. Should I use preterite or imperfect? I can never decide which tense to use and always get so confused.

I'm a big fan of Spanglish. I.E. adding "o" to the end of everything! Example-

Beef = El Beefo. (I even tried to conjugate that- Beefo, Beefas, Beefa, Beefamos, Beefan)

thats right...i think

Preterite is a completed action in the past. Imperfect is an ongoing action in the past, like fairy tales for example would use Imperfect, while a once in a lifetime experience would be preterite. I jus always confuse the endings.

Preterite - AR verbs

é
aste
ó
amos
aron

Preterite - ER, IR verbs

í
iste

imos
ieron

Imperfect - AR verbs

aba
abas
aba
abamos
aban

Imperfect - ER, IR verbs

ía
ías
ía
íamos
ían

Then there are a whole bunch of irregulars, but thats everywhere in Spanish. I know them when I right them down, like now, I just get messed up when talking to other people.
