you could understand and read spanish but can't speak it? it's usually the opposite for most people with a secondary language. go hang out around some spanish speaking people or watch some films. you'll pick up on it quick.

I can read and understand, but have zero confidence writing or speaking.

Like I said, not really American. If your parents weren't born here you were still raised and imprinted with some of their cultural heritage.
