Hi! Hallo! Hola! My name is Katie, and I'm looking for a language exchange partner for GERMAN and for SPANISH. I would enjoy talking with a language partner once or twice a week, a little in your language and then a little in English. I have taught English as a Second Language before and I enjoy meeting new people, so I can help you! Puedo defenderme en espanol, pero busco alguien quien pueda ayudarme a mejorar mi gramatica y mi conocimiento del argot, especialmente el argot de Espana. Ich spreche auch ein bisschen Deutche, aber nicht sehr gut. Ich moechte bessere Grammatik und Vokabeln haben, und ich moechte mehr flieslig (?) sprechen. I like music and dancing, and I am involved in my church. I live in the southern United States-- the best part of the country! :) Where do you live?! Let's talk!

    Eines Film ueber Dietrich Bonhoeffer Heute abend habe ich eines Film ueber Dietrich Bonhoeffer gesehen. Es war sehr gut und sehr interessant. Er gefaellt mir, weil ich sehe, dass fuer ihm gab es keine einfache Antwort. Er hat manchmal etwas getan, und dann spaeter sich entshieden, das es nicht so gut war, also er hat etwas anderes getan. Aber er hat immer sich gefragt, "Tue ich, was ich tun soll? Tue ich, was Gott will, dass ich tue?" Also seines Leben hat gezogen, dass fuer ihm Gott war der Wichtigest. Die Geschischte seines Leben ist traurig, aber auch sehr schoen. Kuerzlich ist die Geschichte Dietrich Bonhoeffers sehr populaer in die Vereinigten Staaten. Seit 2 Jahren hat Eric Metaxas eines gutes Buch ueber ihm geschreibt, und das hilft. Ich frage mich: Ist seine Geschichte auch sehr populaer jetzt in Deutschland?

    Why Aren't You Like Your Father !?!?

    Being the only engineer in my family, makes me means I always hear this question! Why am I not a pharmacist or a doctor like the rest of my family (especially my great mom and dad?)

    Does the son have to be like the father ?!
    #share your opinion :)

     

    Notes: "Mom" and "Dad" are capitalized if you use them as names.  (For example, "Hi, Mom!"  or "I don't know when Mom will be home.")  However, they are NOT capitalized if you use them as common nouns-- that is, as a substitution for the more formal words, "mother" and "father."  (For example, "My mom and dad are nice people.")

    Your writing is great!  Be careful about punctuation... but your grammar is very good!

    I think children are not always like their parents, but usually something very formative changes them if they do not follow their parents' patterns. 

    Do your parents speak languages?! :)

    Un finde bastante ocupado! Este finde, tengo mucho que hacer-- pero todo divertido! Manana, quedare con una amiga de mi iglesia para tomar un cafelito y ponernos al dia. Es una amistad que mole mucho, porque ella tiene muchos mas anos que yo (70, creo) entonces me puede guiar y avisar en cuanto a como vivir bien, pero a la vez, nos reimos y compartimos como amigas de la misma generacion. Despues de eso.... a trabajar! Tengo un trabajo de medio tiempo. (No se como decirlo. Es decir que no trabajo 40 horas por semana como lo normal, sino que trabajo menos y no recibo cosas como la seguridad de salud, etc. Como se llaman?) Depues de trabajar, voy a mi iglesia para ser una de las chaperonas (?) para un evento para los jovenes de la iglesia. En ingles se llama un "lock-in." Todos los jovenes vienen y pasan toda la noche jugando, charlando, etc., y no duermen!! Ellos lo consideran super guay-- un tiempo para disfrutar del tiempo junto-- pero para los adultos, es una noche larga... jaja! Afortunadamente, 2 amigos mios tambien son chaperones. Y tambien, la verdad es que quiero mucho a los jovenes y quiero que tengan la oportunidad de hacerse amigos mas cercanos, entonces no me molesta mucho. Pero el sabado, voy a dormir todo el santo dia! :) Bueno-- hago mas este finde, pero queria escribir solo porque me encantaria que alguien me corregiese, y esta nota ya es bastante larga... .entonces, hasta luego! :)

    In this context, "pocket" means "section" or "area." The connotation is that a pocket is a relatively *small* area of the country, not a large state or region. "Pocket" also means the part of your pants near your waist, where you put your hands or coins or a piece of paper, etc. "Yet another group" means "still a different group." It indicates that many groups have already been listed, and there are even more groups to be listed.

    The Spanish sense of humour

    To start with, it is necessary to explain that, in the same way that as in England, the sense of humour changes depending on the region of the country in which you are. For instance, there is a Catalan sense of humour catalan properly, characterized by a serious and ironic way of telling jokes.

    Andalucia, another Spanish region, is known for the gladness of its people. The Andalusians, who are known to be funny. However, the truth is that all of these are little more than stereotypes.

    According to an article on the this topic, the Spanish like jokes about politics and black dark humour, above all.

    In my opinion, the greater greatest sign of intelligence is to be able to laugh at yourself.

    Good day

    Hi. today, i got my Japanese exam back. I get (got) a good grade thank God. The listening part was real (really) hard, but still I got some points. Then I was supposed to do the English translation exam, but the professor did not come (show) up, so I came back home earlier that usual. Now, I am getting through my problem-solving essay due to next Tuesday. Even though I am totally down to English (I'm not sure what you mean here), I will study Japanese more actively. :)
