Feliz Viernes!
I don't think you've forgotten your Spanish! It's something you have in your mind, the only thing you have to do is use it!
si, my spanish is still as good as ever:

well, some of it is hard. i get mixed up with the subjuntive and also the preterite vs. imperfect. but, i think we both have pretty good pronunciation. it's a lot easier than English Grammar though! |

Really, it is! English has too many rules, and then exceptions to those rules, and then more rules for those exceptions. It's weird, but I think learning Spanish Grammar helped me a lot with my English Grammar somehow. |

| Do you (Spanish learners) think it's easy the distinction between "ser" and "estar"? Just a question that comes to my head... |

That's funny, because one of the first things that english teachers tell you at school is : "In English there are no rules" :-D |

no, not really...
i think that's something they were good about, was teaching us to distinguish between the two, and when to use each. There are a few instances where I might get them mixed up, but for the most part, I'm okay. |

I think it's pretty easy but I think that's b/c I was a star Spanish student...just kidding!
I think once you get to the point of thinking in Spanish is when you begin to master the language.
