Answer Question
Would it be worth it to study European Spanish
Hi, could anyone advise me on whether it would be worthwhile from both a time as well as financial stand-point to study European (Spain) Spanish since I'm already intermediate in Latin American Spanish. I'm going to be in various areas in Spain for about 1 week in October, and plan on going for about 2 weeks next year. So, is there enough similarity between LA Spanish and SP Spanish to get by, or would it be worthwhile to study specifically for Spain.
As background, I've finished both Rosetta Stone 1-5 and Fluenz 1-5. I'm now over 2/3 of the way through Fluencia. Rosetta Stone was good, but subjunctive was too confusing. That's why I tried Fluenz. Unfortunately, it wasn't until almost finished level 5 that I found out there was no coverage at all, because it would be too confusing. Fluencia does cover subjunctive, but I haven't gotten to that point yet.
