How easy is it to learn Spanish?

Learning a second language is the ultimate business move and one that is undervalued and under utilized in todays society.

I wish i learned Spanish or mandarin instead of going to college.

MANDARIN. It will give you a massive headstart when china inevitably takes over.

Very easy compared to other languages. All the phonemes are straight forward, lots of similar words. Verb conjugation is the only tricky part, once you have that you’re fine.

China is heavenly if you're white, have at least one Chinese friend, and speak Chinese. If you are at least a 6 you will be treated to dinner/drinks regularly and have your pick of pussy every time you go out. Can't wait to go back.

19 year old who knows english, spanish, chinese and some korean

english is the most important, but most everything else is only necessary if you want to live in places which speak it
spanish is easy, just live in a latin american country for a bit and you should pick it up

mandarin takes a bit more effort, but it's largely just a long grind, if you practice copying words and the characters everyday you should be good in a year

korean is legit hard though

yep, spanish is very easy if you have a solid grasp of any other Romance language. like he said, conjugation can be tricky but the rules are generally consistent. I'd recommend prioritizing vocabulary and verbal fluency over grammar and meeting with native speakers as often as possible since regional dialects can vary a bit.
