    What does it means?

    Hello everybody, I am trying to join to a job website, and I am not sure about the meaning of this sentence:
    "I'm currently between jobs"

    Does it mean that now I don't have a job?

    Thanks!

     

    You are correct.  Yesterday I had a job, tomorrow I will have a job; but now I don't have a job.

    Remember that in the present tense the auxiliary verb DO is used to make the accion negative or a question and the main verb does not change.  E.g. I have a job.  I don't have a job.  Do I have a job?

    Manuel speaks English.  He doesn't speak English. Does he speak English?

    Good luck!

    Some tenet

    I don´t know if this sentence is correct: "My main tenet is always to listen to other people".

     

    Yes, this is correct.  But it would be more common to say "my main principle..."   Tenet is  more formal and here it sounds like a quotation from a book.

    New member

    Hello everybody! I am a new member on this website. Since More than 15 months ago I have returned to study English because it´s necessary for getting a new job, even in Spain, but I am avalaible to work abroad. Besides, it´s a useful tool when you travel to other countries.

     

    Your English is very good.  Phrases with "since", "ago", "during" are always difficult.  Where do you study English?  Vivo en EEUU y estudio el español en Mexico.  Tambien enseño inglés a hispanohablantes aquí en mi país y en Mexico.  Barry

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself He viajado a Mexico muchas veces para vacaciones y para enseñar inglés en una escuela para adultos. Cada vez aprendo un poco mas de español. Sin embago vivo en un región rural del estado de Wisconsin, USA en donde no hay hispanohablantes y necesito de seguir comunicandome en español. Estoy buscando un maestro que puede ayudarme y que quisiera aprender inglés tambien. Me gusta musica, idiomas, viajando, y experimentando distintas culturas.
