Es un buena idea! Me gustaria aprender espanol de Mexico por que oigo las canciones de Julieta Venegas y los me parecen muy hermoso. Entonces, creo que espanol de Mexico puede estar muy util y muy hermoso. Correctame por favor!

I think you hit the nail on the head! I've been reading "El Principito" for a bit now, and it's great! I can actually understand it (unlike some other books that were recommended - La Ciudad de la bestias). Thanks a lot!

Thanks for these resources. What a brilliant way to progress now that I am done with online learning material. You can also search on google looking for filetype:pdf, but be sure to check the copyrights!

I like Jamaican and Scottish. I don't see Scottish in yours, I'm guessing it falls in one of the England categories?

Misspell, correlate and rhythm. I often think they're spelt: Mispell, corelate and rhthym.

Yes, I think they are very effective and have subscribed to a few. I like www.studyspanish.com and www.duolingo.com Most of what I know in Spanish is because of online tutorials I have done.

Yes, very aggressive, although my friend in Germany says it is a very sweet language. I think a few stereotypes may have influence my viewing of the language as well.

I don't think I read too fast. I wish I could read faster. My reading speed would be around 400 wpm. You can test at either spreeder (google it) or at www.readfa.st

I'm partial to parsimoniously, mellifluous and perspicacious. I love the sounds these words contain.

I definitely do. I like to seem presentable and would like to make a good first (and second and last) impression on whoever the listener might be. To achieve this, I have joined Toastmaster's. Have any of you guys done something similar?

Yes, and it's considered the first language (mainly because I was an expatriate). For locals, the first language would have been Arabic, and for me, Malayalam, but as it stands, I have been taught English as my first language!

Definitely. Primarily, because in my mothertongue, you cannot express all words. For example, "toothbrush" or "soap" or "phone", like many other modern words, don't have convenient alternatives in my mothertongue.

Yeah I definitely don't remember, but I've been told it was "mama". Like most responses I see on this thread!

I'd say Spanish is tougher because of its confusing verb tenses! The subjunctive isn't used all that much in English and is tough to get a grasp on. Add in the fact that there are no male/female genders in English and I think it is clear that it would be easier to get your point across in English.

I think this is what is known as the immersion technique. I believe it will be useful only once you have some knowledge of the language. Before you have enough I feel it can confuse you and hamper your progress.

You can try studyspanish.com It's an amazing site I use to practice my Spanish. Here's a link: http://www.studyspanish.com/verbs/lessons/pressubj.htm There are lots of other exercises too! All the best!

He would of gotten it. Instead of He would have gotten it. Also, when people misspell misspelled!

Whenever there's an apostrophe, just see if you can expand the word. For example, It's -> It is or It has. If not, then it's probably its

Enojado - not enjoyable, but angry!

araña - spider From the TV Show Community

Definitely listening skills. Along with that, I should also say I have a bit of trouble conjugating the verbs in the two thousand forms that there are, unlike English.

I had this exact same problem too (and since others have mentioned it as well, we know we're not alone!). To improve my listening skills, I listen to different songs and try and transcribe their lyrics. Often, I end up joining different words, just like you did. One way I can figure out that I transcribed it incorrectly is when it doesn't make sense. Hope that helps you!

Once I know how to converse in Spanish fluently, I'll go to Spain and mingle with the locals, have fun at the tomatina and hit the pub after watching a few football games. I would love to experience their culture the way they experience it too, and the key to that is knowing Spanish well.

Here are a few words you can use in Tamil to ask questions: Yenge - where? Yenna - what? Yevalovu neram - What is the time? Someone else can fill in the rest I hope

Woah, a real eye-opener. I used to have so much difficulty with ne .. personne and ne .. plus earlier. Thanks for clarifying that. I will add to this, saying if you want to say neither this nor that, you use ni ceci ni cela.
