You sound alright. It's more important to make yourself understandable than sounding "fluent".

I learnt english thanks to the Yu gi oh cards.

Since my classmates didn't know english they started pulling effects out of their asses and they could win a match in 3 turns.

So i took the job of educating my ass. It took about 1 year to learn how to read fluently (without dictionary n' shit) and 4 years to know how to talk and being able to watch movies without subtitles.

Of course i have grammatical errors. i dun give a fug though.

4 years? You just took away any hope from me of of being a competent english speaker.

These kind of statements make me doubt my own level of proficiency. I mean, I feel like my english is good enough, but what if that's just my perception and it actually sounds really shitty to everyone else?

Just buy a English/spanish dictionary, download some fucking games and start from there.

The yu gi oh cards are perfect because they have simple tenses.

Just have in mind the basics. When to use "has or have" how to ask questions and how to answer. Starting from there you just learn words.

Also, don't be a faggot.

can you get names, last names, numbers and jokes over a phone with a poor signal? if the answer is yes, you are fluent.
