I don’t have so many people who would speak English with me, but it ain’t a problem for me. Btw, I speak some Spanish, but I am not fluent in Spanish yet. (Necesitó mejorar mis conocimientos, pero puedo escribir diferentes palabras) La única razón por la que decidí aprender Español es porque es un hermoso idioma. ☺️

[@lehcim4010]

Your Spanish writing is actually very good in terms of structure and punctuation. There's only one small detail: the word "Necesitó" is used to describe a past time and is appropriate for the pronoun "he" (él). If you are talking about yourself, it should be "Yo necesito" or simply "Necesito."

@@lehcim4010 Thank you, I speak some Spanish, but I am only fluent in two languages. Russian and English. Sometimes I practice Spanish and I learned many words, but I am not confident when I speak Spanish.

Unfortunately English is not my first language, but at least I speak English every day, so for me it’s the second native language. My first language is Russian, but like I said I speak two languages fluently. I have an American accent. I prefer to speak more English than Russian, but I have to speak Russian too, otherwise it would be a problem for my family to understand me.
