Questions & Answers about Tu parles très bien espagnol.
Why does parles end in an 's' if we don't pronounce it?
For regular -er verbs, the tu (informal "you") form always ends in -s. So, the verb parler (to speak) becomes tu parles. Even though you must write that -s, it is completely silent. It sounds exactly the same as je parle (I speak) and il/elle parle (he/she speaks).
Why is très bien placed before the language? In English we put it at the end of the sentence.
In French, short adverbs like bien (well) or phrases like très bien (very well) usually go directly after the conjugated verb. Instead of saving it for the end, French places it right after parles, giving us the literal word order: "You speak very well Spanish."
Why is there no word for "the" before espagnol?
Shouldn't espagnol be capitalized?
