Hello. I´m living in Málaga ( Andalucía, in the hot and cool South of Spain) but I was born in Zamora (in the cold but cool as well North, just at the other side of the country). My name is Jesús Manuel, and I´m working as speech terapìst with children with special educative needs, in a public school named "Vicente Aleixandre" in Torre del Mar (Málaga). I´m interested in travelling all around the world and English is nowadays a warranty of communication in nearly every country. I think that perhaps this is one of the ways for me to improve my language skills. At the beginnig only reading and writting, but speaking as well very soon, I hope. I offer my time for other persons interested in practice Spanish language with me.

    En general, el verbo "ser" implica una situación permanente, mientras que "estar" implica una situación transitoria. Por ejemplo: "ser aburrido" significa alguien o algo SIEMPRE asociado al aburrimiento. "Estar aburrido" significa que alguien, por el momento, se aburre. Esto como regla general. Pero el español (también el inglés) admite muchos matices. Intento responder a cada ítem de tu lista: 1- Ser inteligente / estar preparado. 2- (Ya contesté lo del aburrimiento). 3- Alguien o algo con maldad / estar enfermo, o algo con mal sabor. 4- Ser soberbio / tener estima alta por algo o alguien. 5- Tener SIEMPRE color blanco en la piel / piel blanca TRANSITORIA (por enfermedad o miedo). 6- Tener mucho dinero / tener buen sabor. 7- Que ofrece seguridad SIEMPRE / confiar en algo. 8- Tener edad avanzada / parecer de edad avanzada. 9- Ser listo / mantenerse con vida.

    Beginning. Firts day. Firts time. Well, this is my first line in italki. Following the suggestions of the page, I´ll write just a little about my job, hobbies and so: I´m working in a public Primary School in Torre del Mar (Málaga-España), like speech therapist with children with special educative needs (autism, speech disabilities, writting troubles, stuttering, brain injury, Down Syndrom...) I´m interested in improving my English to be able to read about my subject of work. But not only. I want to improve my listening comprehension and get more fluent in speaking. Because of this I´m swimming in italki. I love outside sports, like climbing, mountaineering, rowing and running (crosscountry). And I love also Southamerican music. Actually, I play wind instruments like quena, sikus, tarka, mohoceño... all from Bolivia, where I was living for two years. I have been playing that kind of instruments since being forteen (I have nearly forty seven, nowadays) and I feel never bored about them. Well: I thik I have written words enough to receive suggestions about the letter. Please, help me to amend this disaster. Thank you.

    Son correctos "tengo cosas PARA hacer" o "tengo cosas QUE hacer". Más usual la segunda. "Cosas DE hacer" es incorrecta.

    La correcta es la primera. Las preposiciones suelen asignarse a determinados verbos, aunque muchas veces el uso incorrecto, si es muy frecuente, termina haciendo que el error "suene bien al oído". Se aconseja "algo", no se aconseja "de algo". Por lo mismo no es correcto decir "pienso de que", o "creo de que". Lo correcto es "pienso que" o "creo que". Sin embargo, el uso ha hecho que "suene bien" la expresión "estoy seguro que...", cuando lo correcto es "estoy seguro DE que..."

    "Un" funciona solamente como artículo indefinido. Pueden leerse o escucharse expresiones del tipo "uno coche", "uno dedo" (a niños muy pequeños o extranjeros aprendiendo el español) pero es siempre un error.

    What is the difference between finish and end? Why "end" in a film and "finish" in a race?
