Hello, kind reader! Welcome to my little window of myself. It is impossible to write down in a few lines the complexity of a person, so the following bullet points are an attempt to capture and condense the essence of my mind and heart: 1.-Fascinated by anything outstanding, different, provocative. Tolerant, unprejudiced, independent opinions. 2.-Quite introvert, very sensitive, anything beautiful fills my spirit with happiness, and usually simple is beautiful. A romantic in the broad sense. 3.1.-Try to live in harmony with Nature: stoic. 3.2.-Love Nature, love being surrounded by her. 4.1.-Reading as a source of enlightment and feelings. 4.2.-Regular/Commercial TV as a source of neuronal death. 4.3.-Music as a source of emotions. Play the piano. 5.1.-Languages: a bridge to wonderful people and cultures. 5.2.-Love learning them and teaching mine. 6.1.-Usually questioning the what's and why's of our world. 6.2.-Interested in Ecology, Philosophy, History. 6.3.-Not comfortable at all in a small talk. 7.-Astronomy: another passion of mine. 8.1.-Healthy lifestyle: no drugs, no excesses. 8.2.-Like cooking my own meals from all over the world. 8.3.-A quiet soul: no partying, no noisy and crowded places. 9.-Will cherish the relationship with whom I deeply connect. Give first, and you will receive. In an undefinite future, I'd like to learn, in no particular order: -Other European languages -Tiếng Việt? -Suomi? -Bahasa Indonesia? -한국어? -Türkçe? If someone offers* me to teach his/her mother tongue whichever it be, patiently correcting my mistakes and guiding me, I will be extremely grateful, and help him/her in return. *: long term commitment. Languages are not learnt in a week!

    You are welcome! About the excels, you don't lose anything trying. :) gmail and hotmail offer services for reading this type of files. Despite this, I can get them in other format.

    True! You have it hidden in your brain, but once you restart using it, most of what you knew will come back. 

     

    Newspapers, books, radio (http://www.rtve.es/radio/), articles at the wikipedia (with the plus that there are in English and Spanish)...

     

    ¡Mucho ánimo!

    Glad to know it is useful! As for the books:

    -"Español en marcha" (Level A1). It's a student's textbook. You will find it in the net, luckly. 

    -"El misterio de la llave". It's an audiobook, of a more advanced level (but it has audio :D ).

     

    Link to loads of language learning materials:

    http://uz-translations.net/index.php

     

    About childen books, I agree that they are useful. With some searching you will find shops selling bilingual books. If you are interested in spanish childen books, the publishing houses "Alfaguara", "Bruño" and "SM" have lots of titles, available (very problably) in Amazon or in "Casa del Libro".

     

    Besides, for a first sight of the language, I have some excel files I've prepared for people I teach informally which might be useful for you. I can send them to you.

    My opinion is: GO FOR IT! Learning languages is allways enriching and enjoyable (provided you are really interested). Plus, you already know some Spanish! Yes: many spanish words are similar in writing and meaning to their french counterparts, and the language strutures are similar (I'm learning French).

    Some material to begin with:

    http://www.studyspanish.com/tutorial.htm

    http://radiolingua.com/category/shows/one-minute-spanish/

     

    I have some books for students. If you are interested, leave me a message.

    Great!! Welcome to Spain! If you know portuguese, then you have...20 % or 30 % done! (Since they are very close languages, more in written form, less in spoken, as far as I know). In what area do you want to focus especially: reading, listening, oral? What is your level? I have some material, it might be useful for you. Leave me a message if you are interested! Moreover, I might be able to practice online, if I get some spare time!

    Una heroína de mi país

    Durante la historia larga de China, ha habido*1 muchas heroínas chinas. Ya que últimamente estoy leyendo las revoluciones en China en el siglo XX, me gustaría escribir sobre*2 una revolucionaria china; se llama Xiang Jingyu. Nació en una familia rica en 1895. Durante esa época en China, sólo los chicos podían ir a escuelas/la escuela*3. Pero su padre tenía una mente*4 abierta y por lo tanto*5 Xiang recibió una buena educación. Ella era muy valiente, extrovertida y activa. Fue una de las primeras mujeres que entró*6 al Partido Comunista de China. Debido a la buena educación que tuvo, estuvo expuesta a las ideas nuevas de esa época, como la igualdad entre hombres y mujeres, etc. Ella dirigió algunas huelgas en Shanghai con éxito para la emancipación de las mujeres chinas. Se casó con otro revolucionario chino cuando estudiaba en Francia. Fue arrestada y  asesinada*7 cuando tenía 33 años por un espía de los nacionalistas.

     

    <em>*1</em>: tiempo pasado porque hablas de la historia.

    *2: la preposición <em>sobre</em> indica el tema o el contenido.

    *3: <em></em>cuando se habla de algo en general, habitualmente se usa el singular.

    *4: encaja mejor el tiempo pretérito imperfecto porque describes una situación en el pasado de cierta duración (en este caso mientras el padre estaba vivo: fueron varios años, no un hecho puntual).

    *5: para explicar el resultado o consecuencia o conclusión lógica de algo dicho anteriormente.

    *6: en singular porque solo hablas de esta señora. La estructura es: entrar a [un sitio]. Un verbo más específico es "afiliarse a [un partido político, un sindicato].

    *7: porque fue otra persona quien le quitó la vida a Jingyu, no se murió por sí sola. Es una pasiva con "ser": "fue" acompaña a "arrestada" y a "asesinada", para evitar repetir "fue" dos veces.(fue arrestada y fue asesinada).
