Questions & Answers about Los estudiantes aprenden inglés muy rápido.

Why does the verb end in -en here (aprenden)?
Aprender (to learn) is a regular verb ending in -er. Because the subject is los estudiantes (a "they" group), we drop the -er and add the regular "they" ending, which is -en.
Why isn't inglés capitalized like it is in English?
In Spanish, the names of languages and nationalities (like inglés, español, or francés) are never capitalized unless they are the very first word in a sentence.
Does los estudiantes only refer to male students?
Not necessarily. The singular noun estudiante ends in -e, so the word itself doesn't change for gender; you say el estudiante (the male student) or la estudiante (the female student). The plural los estudiantes is used for a group of boys, or a mixed group of boys and girls. You only use las estudiantes if the group is entirely female.
Can rápido mean "quickly" as well as "fast"?
Yes! Rápido is technically an adjective meaning "fast", but it is frequently used as an adverb meaning "quickly" in everyday Spanish. You could also use the actual adverb rápidamente, but saying muy rápido is shorter and very natural.
