I've had that problem with a lot of languages im currently learning. The reading and writing is really easy for me, but speaking is hella hard.

Exactly. People think since I am half thai, I should already know the language.

Learning any language is hard, but thai is especially tricky ^^ good luck with it, though, practice makes perfect

Keep going. It's tough now, and will probably take you a long time, but if you try to stay consistent, you'll reach your goal and master it.
Or know a large majority of it. Regardless, just don't give up.

Thank you for the inspiring words.
I will continue learning it <3

I hope it becomes easier for you, I’ve learned a bit of Korean and could probably be fluent if I didn’t continuously stop studying so that’s definitely my #1 tip, even if it’s just 5 minutes take some time to study everyday.

I concur. Even my english as fluent as it is, isn't perfect. lol
