I kind of had no choice but to learn Spanish. I think I was the only white person in my middle school, haha. The teachers even got after me for not knowing it. I was having a difficult time with class work because they prefered to speak/teach in Spanish. I was also sort of forced into a Spanish language class as an elective. Everyone there passed with flying colours of course. I was the only one doing the "learning". Great time nonetheless, it was only a tad difficult for me because of the way it was introduced to me.

What if you move to Colombia as baby & grew up In Colombia. Would Spanish be forced?
I do not know, sorry. I have not experienced that.

As someone who's taken Spanish classes, I found that the difficult part was keeping track of all the verb tenses. I was able to grasp them easily, but a lot of my classmates struggled a lot with them.

Well do you think it's much easier to know Spanish if you were born & raise in Colombia?

Yes, because Americans have to learn Spanish verb tenses on top of the English verb tenses that they've already familiarized themselves with.

Well, yes, like any language. Americans I think believe learning any foreign language is difficult, because so many of them dont while growing up - once you've learned a 2nd language, 3rd & 4th come much easier, I found.
