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

Do we have a decent Spanish speaker here?


#1011

Duolingo claims Iā€™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 youā€™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 donā€™t feel right when I try to understand them.

Thatā€™s quite scary. Didnā€™t they say they are not planning on sharing or selling data with third parties? That sounds like bullshit reading this, doesnā€™t it?


#1016

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!

No es posssible para miā€¦ ahem.


#1020

Uhhh, iā€™m not good. I only know present tense, i donā€™t quite remember the pronounsā€¦ so thatā€™s a no, sorry :fish:

Spanish is pretty easy 180, donā€™t worry. The problem are all the variations.

Itā€™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. Itā€™s the hearing that Iā€™m still weak in.

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

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