Well, I dropped by here mainly to learn languages and make friends, all at once! I'm very passionate about computers and gadgets. I love dogs. I live in an all-year-round summer island. Do you like that?

    Yes! These days it's easier than ever to learn a new language! Now we have things our parents didn't have when they were young ( the internet, free and almost free access to information, the evolution of communication, etc). I tend to disagree with the people who claim that children can learn languages at a faster pace... Nope! Can children pick up grammar faster than an older person? I mean, the answer is so obvious I don't even need to pull it up!

    'We're Russians' is the right answer. Regards, James.

    It should be: Pienso en mis padres. (Eso) depende de varios factores. Me enamoré de una chica. Nació antes de la guerra. Over all, it is good! Regards, James.

    Hello, David! Actually, that's a good question! In order to start learning a new language you have to find a compelling reason that would keep you up to the task: be it that you've planned to visit/move overseas in a country where the language in question is spoken, that you've found a very interesting girl and you want to talk to her, but she doesn't understand your language; because you've clinched up a high-benefits job and there's a better opportunity there for you, but it is necessary you speak in another language because they'll send you to one of the branches overseas... You get the idea! There are lots of methods out there that would work for you. I'd recommend you to get one that is more than 60% of audio in its material. My inspiration to learn English? Well, it's the most spoken language worldwide. That's more than enough of a reason to learn it! Regards, James.

    Learn by teaching! It's no surprise to me that the greatest masters of science, arts, history, you name it, have been able to become so powerfully intelligent by sharing what they learned. Take, for example, the life of Nicolaus Copernicus, the astronomer. Had he not shared his knowledge with Domenico Maria Novara, maybe he would't become the genius he was. The fact is that our brains are like sponges: the more they absorb, the bigger they become! So, as a thumb of rule, I advice you that, whenever you're in need of learning something new, you should begin by sharing what you already know. Who knows, perhaps you'll get into some genius to get help while learning. or, what is better, you'd turn out to be another one yourself!

    Hi, Geoff! Basically those two words mean the same thing. And "Cuál es la diferencia entre [X] y [Y]?" is the right form. James.

    I think it's possible, but it all depends on the levels of sincerity that lie upon such a relationship. It all goes down to being honest, I think...

    Oh, Geoff, I almost forgot! Two things: 1. Spanish from Spain is VERY DIFFERENT from the Spanish we speak in Latin America! So, for you to be on the 'safe side', I'd suggest you to learn Latin American Spanish, since most Spanish-speaking countries do speak Latin American Spanish. 2. 'estar' is neither a noun nor an adjective! It's the verb TO BE. If you need any further help, you leave me a message ;) James.
