Fun internet trick. Go to http://maps.google.com and type ā€˜lion killer’ into the search box.

Do we have a decent Spanish speaker here?


#1011

Duolingo claims I’m good enough to translate Wikipedia articles. My skills are good enough to get the gist of a newspaper article. Holding a proper conversation is still too difficult for me.

@archnemesis
If I may ask, why are you trying to learn Spanish?

@John
Is your Spanish good enough to be able to ask some language related questions? That is if you’re okay with that :blush: As you know, I am studying the language and am trying to analyse many texts for their grammar, structure and word usage as training material. There are certain word combinations or words that don’t feel right when I try to understand them.

That’s quite scary. Didn’t they say they are not planning on sharing or selling data with third parties? That sounds like bullshit reading this, doesn’t it?

I studied it back in high school, but I never got good enough for it to be useful. It would be fun to know a third language well and Spanish is easier for me than any other major language.

#1018

No te preocupes, el espaƱol es fƔcil!


#1019

#1020

Uhhh, i’m not good. I only know present tense, i don’t quite remember the pronouns… so that’s a no, sorry :fish:

Spanish is pretty easy 180, don’t worry. The problem are all the variations.

It’s okay, thanks for the best intentions anyhow.

My Spanish is more advanced though, my questions are more deep than a beginner. I can speak the language so so, have a good understanding of texts and can use most forms. It’s the hearing that I’m still weak in.

At the end of my studies, I’m supposed to be able to speak the language with at least B1 level, use it in international companies etc.

I guess I’m going to have to wait until vacation time is over to ask my teacher. Thanks everyone!
