Hola/Bonjour! Soy un Ingles nativo de Londres y viviendo en España, hablo vale Español y quiero mejorarlo. Hello! I'm an English native from London and living in Spain, I speak OK Spanish and would like to improve on it. I would like to improve my conversational Spanish and also try some basic French because I can now understand some words through my knowledge of Spanish. In exchange, I can help with UK English, including slang and colloquialisms and general conversation. Thanks!

    A vine only begins to produce grapes after it's third year, whatever the vine's age/the age of the vine, grapes only grow on stalks that are one/a year old, that's why we prune the vineyard each year.

    Hi Zuzka! I used BBC Suenos when I started learning Spanish because my teacher recommended it and it helped me a lot. It comes with CDs has some pictures too and isn't just boring pages of text, it has some Latin American differences explained in there too which would surely help you in the US. I'm not sure whether or not the BBC still publish it but I'm sure you could get a second hand example somewhere online. Buena suerte!

    Ballet school is correct, the same as driving school, secondary school, etc. School of ballet sounds more foreign (and arguably more sophisticated), like when things are said the opposite way around.

    I think encantada is used more when you first meet someone and un placer conocerte is used when the first meeting ends.

    I'm not fluent in Spanish but I have used both and had no funny looks from people when saying it.

    I hope that helps you from a foreigner's perspective.

    You can say 'the tip' or 'the dump' without adding rubbish, people would still know what you mean.

    In England, we say 'Air Miles' which may be gramatically incorrect but that is what it is known as.

    The first one is correct. For the second one you could say "I like music but I (do) not play an instrument".

    The doctor gave me/him/her some IV fluids and a shot to stem the blood flow. This is how a native would say it. IV means intravenous, directly into the vein. Shot is American and jab is English for injection, but either nationality would understand you, whatever you said in either country Hope this helps!

    Enigmatic is correct. It means pre-made in a factory in large quantities for the mass market to a pre-determined template of the average person of the particular size you are looking to buy, rather than tailor made to your own proportions.
