Question: Why can I hear but not speak?
Answer: That's perfectly normal, so don't worry. If it takes six months to learn to listen to Japanese, then it should take about 12 months to be able to speak.
When listening, your ears can pick up the most important words in a sentence, so you can quickly grasp the meaning. However, speaking requires not only saying the main words, but also pronouns, particles, and other related words to be able to express yourself clearly. Therefore, speaking naturally takes longer.
