such en español, this post on Spanish Language and Culture is all about learning a new language, especially Spanish, and hopefully getting the conversation started. This is an opportunity to learn how to speak and read in a new language, and I hope that you’ll enjoy it.
I have been learning Spanish for nearly 5 years now, and it’s been a tough transition to do so while working in Spain. Although there are plenty of people who know their way around a Spanish-speaking country, you’re not always sure where and what you’re going to find at a language school. It’s frustrating to have to deal with people who insist on speaking with you in perfect perfect Spanish to get to the point where you’re ready to go to the next level.
I think it can be difficult to learn a language when all you want to hear is the perfect pronunciation. It can be easy to get the hang of language when youre in one language, but in a second language youre stuck, and then it’s nearly impossible to get it back. It’s been this way my entire life.
I once had a friend who was working a Spanish class and kept telling me to say “Es posible que…” when I was trying to express “It’s possible” or “It should be possible” (I know Ive said that before, and it was wrong). It was a huge lesson in just how different it was to be in two different languages. It was a frustrating lesson, but also one that made me realize just how much we learn in each of the other languages we learn.
Its been this way for my entire life, and it’s something that makes me really uncomfortable. My Spanish teacher told me it’s because I’m an American. That’s wrong, because I’m not an American. I am an American, and I am an American.
But still. But still. It really sucks, and I think now maybe it makes me realize just how much I suck at speaking. I mean, I can speak Spanish, and I can speak English, but its like its hard to actually communicate.
Here’s a great story about how this happens. At the beginning of high school, a boy named Kyle came with his best friend. Both of them were from the same region, but now they were in different classes. One day Kyle decided to go to a class with his friend. The class was full of people from a different region of the country. The teacher, a guy named Mr.
Mr. K, did not like Kyle and told him he would not be allowed to go to class with anyone from his new region again. Mr. K is the school’s principal. They have to follow his rules and his rules are very strict. If they don’t like a teacher, they have to find another one.
Sounds like an interesting class, but that teacher was not very nice and was very harsh. For some reason, Kyle wasn’t allowed to go to class with anyone from his new region, and Mr. K was not nice to Kyle and told him that he was being stupid and should have known better. Kyle was pretty angry and decided that he wasn’t going to follow the rules. He went to his class with the other kids.
