Can think of it this way: When someone learns a language for the first time, they are also learning about their own language and how it is constructed. So, in reality, you are learning TWO languages at once; which can suck! But it is worth it in the long run by far.

Love the quote. I must say that I at first questioned the availability of the cucumber in ancient Rome; so I looked it up. Found this interesting read on the history of such a random food item, LOL had to share. Not sorry:

Anger is temporary madness.
Good! Bring the language into the household... What are you "struggling" with right now? I am a language professor BTW. Math and numbers were never my thing; hah.
I have been pulling random quotes from random pages. Although someone pointed out that one was incorrectly quoted, but the concept stood; lol.
The things we worry about are normally the things that least matter; even though we build it up in our head. I have always been a rip-the-bandaid-off-quickly kind of person. Just get it done and over with asap.
Great story thanks for sharing. It is amazing how the little changes can have the biggest effects on us and our wellbeing.
Your GF is your best go-to resource over any application. Practice practice practice make mistakes with her who cares! It is the only way to learn. Spain will be awesome for you. I hope you enjoy it.
Hate it when the internet lies to me! Thanks for catching that; my mistake!
BTW love the Enchirideon. Read so many times my copy looks like a used napkin at this point.
Do as much as you can, when you can, where you can. However, to be fluent one needs to speak. I know, it sucks, but it is the necessary evil here. You can try a few applications like: Tandem; Conversation Exchange. These places you can find people/groups and chit-chat. It helped me. BUT, my tool was the immersion method, as I live in South America.
-Fluent in Spanish as an English native, living in Chile. Please, feel free to ask me anything!

We seem to have some talented brewers here in the forum. Would be nice to see some final results from the community members in this forum! Perhaps it can also inspire some people who are curious about the hobby.
I can start: here is a sparkling mead along with my labeled bottles.
