I learnt to read English just armed with a Spanish-English dictionary. After this, I learnt to write in English, at least to a reasonable level, writing in forums like this. But spoken English, well, that's a
different animal. Sometimes I wonder how English speakers can communicate with each other with so many words that sound almost the same.
