There was an erroneous repetition of the previous post here. Edited by Enrico on 29 August 2014 at 7:35pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Even though French and Italian are grammatically closer to each other than either is to
Spanish, most people find more interference between Italian and Spanish. Personally, I find that knowing some Spanish (perhaps to a B1 level) made learning Italian a lot easier. They do reinforce each other. However, I've never managed to study both at the same time. I'll work on Spanish for a year, then Italian for a year, and so on. I'm hoping that once my Italian is stronger I'll be able to maintain both simultaneously. It hasn't been too hard to study French simultaneously with either. So my rec would be Italian (because you love it) > French (you might learn to love it) > Spanish. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Thank you. I don't know why but I sometimes also incline to this way. I hope that I can break through my dislike to French pronunciation. I would like to read "Le comte de Monte Cristo" in French and travel along the French Mediterranean coast as long as Italian and Spanish. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

My only knowledge of Spanish is through helping my daughter through some (pretty easy) graded readers a few years ago. That was pretty close grammatically to Italian and much further from the (little) French I do know. so I'm a little surprised that you'd consider French nearer to Italian than Spanish is. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

For me it's also seems similar especially when listening.
