      I am really interested in this, because I am from Spain 🇪🇸. my main question is: are you learning Latin American Spanish or Spain Spanish (castellano)? another one: don't wanna bother you about it, but please make videos about learning Korean when you do? (I saw the video where you mentioned that) Im attempting to learn it and itd be nice to see how you do it.

      ojalá que encontramos un dia si es posible, i learned spanish some 8 years ago and started learning portugues two days ago. with the same picture technique but memory palaces. my portuguese is bad but i can read basic text and get about 50 to 70%. learning verbs is my focus now and the conjugation rules later.

    As I Spanish speaker I've been speaking this language for all my life and sometimes I make mistakes. Also I speak English and Italian and learning Portuguese. But Let me tell you something kids. If you wanna learn any language at least you need to put some effort from 3 to five years straight to speak in a decent way... Respect to this guy for such an amazing intention.

    Been studying Japanese for about 6 months now using your method and I was surprised that I was able to understand most of your Japanese without looking at the screen. Spent about 3 weeks in Okinawa, Japan and was constantly complimented on how much I had learned compared to when I lived there. (My wife and her friends are all Japanese and met me when i spoke zero Japanese). Your method works!

      @@6stringcuber683 Also, these kinds of videos are using a few tricks. One trick is to give the video a title and a thumbnail that they never actually deliver on. Is he really going to have a good, reasonably fluent conversation in 7 days? Probably not. But he is going to softly negate that by showing us what progress he DID make.
      A month is totally fine. Stick at it. I have no shame admitting that it took me about 2 years to learn Swedish to the level that I have now... the reason I have no shame is that I know I have learnt it a crapload better than Ikenna and his 7 day Spanish. 7 days is impressive sure, but like I said, is he really going to learn it or is he going to use it as subscriber bait?

      8 To one there is given through the Spirit a message of wisdom, to another a message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, 10 to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes them to each one, just as he determines.

For example, I learned the word "uzo" as "use". Because it ends in an -o, I know it's a noun. Then, I can change it to "uzas" to get "uses". For other languages, Memrise may not be enough.

    One tip for learning Spanish, which I hope id have a few since I’ve been studying it for the last 3 years is conjugations are key, like Italian most of the personal pronouns are inferred by the conjugations of the verb, so knowing the infinitive and personal pronoun won’t really help when trying to communicate, for example normally instead of saying “yo soy” people will casually just say “soy” or instead of “nosotros tenemos” just “tenemos” is okay. It takes a little while to adjust to not saying the pronouns but you get used to it and it becomes second nature when you keep practicing. Anyways keep up with the spanish and as always keep working hard

      Quick question, if you don't mind, and by some miracle, TH-cam sends you a notification: just like it would feel weird for English-speaking people to drop the pronouns, in my language we almost always attach an article to nouns, but from the books I've seen (I study on my own) in Spanish nouns don't have obligatory articles. Is it true or is it possible they just forgot to add the articles for a few of the words in my books?
      For example, is "Yo estoy en casa" incorrect? Shouldn't it be "Yo estoy en la casa"?

    Here’s a tip that will help even more!
    Spanish is spoken as a national language in like 25 countries. Not only do a lot of them have different dialects in terms of casualness and formality, a lot of them have words that will translate way differently depending on where the person is from.
    For example, even looking at some of the most used words you have things that are radically different depending on the culture like concha, torta, amarillo, pendejo, gato/gata, ay bendito, coger etc. (A lot of them can be vulgar btw)
    Also even figuring out how to refer to people is hard. Different countries have different connotations for tú, usted, vos, or vosotros.
    There are also about 1000 tenses. Some more commonly used than others.
    So while practical studying is fantastic, television, conversations with natives and TH-cam are your best friends for learning how to speak on a proficiency level, like you did at the end of the week!
    Those are just suggestions though! It is a language that requires a lot of studying to perfect. ¡Buen trabajo y buena suerte, papi!

      I have been very pleased with the progress I’ve made using this *LearnSpanish.4yourhelp. Com* (remove space and open the site) Spanish learning course. We are English ex-pats who moved to Spain, and have been trying to learn the language, seriously, for 4 years. However, in our 60’s learning a new language has been daunting. But we are making real progress now, thanks to your course.

    Realmente, me parece que el español es un poco más difícil que el inglés en el tema de los verbos, ya que el español cambia todo el verbo en vez de añadirle una palabra extra (por ejemplo, "I will go" es "yo iré") y además, el español tiene una conjugación diferente para cada persona, mientras que el inglés tiene menos (otro ejemplo, "I am/you, we, they are/he, she, it is" tiene 3 diferentes)

    Great way to challenge yourself! And the progress that you made is also great! Learning a language involves a lot of information to absorbe and that can be overwhelming in only 7 days. My approach is more "relax, have fun and enjoy the process no matter how long it takes". It usually takes about 3 years to get fluent, except if you're living in a Spanish speaking country and are forced to use the language everyday, in that case it will take only 1 year. So for those watching the video, don't give up after 7 days or even after 1 year, learning a language is a process that takes time, and how long it takes will depend on your own learning pace.

    * readings, dialogs + audio & video content
    * a dictionary (let it be a mobile app) with conjugations and examples of words usage
    * conversations/dialogues in this language showing a usage in different contexts
    * If sb asked me about the best method I will always say it's Callan's (direct method)
