I have run into the usage of "learn to" so I am confused about it's use. Could you make it clear.

Regards
Emir

Hi Emir,

You can use 'learn' with a direct object as in 'Learn English'. You can also use it with a following verb as in: She is learning to speak English.

Dear Alan,

Thanks for your useful information on my question. Now, this quite clear when they are used and where.

Having learned how to use and where to use, I will learn more to speak and use English more fluently.

Best regards
Emir
