Hey there! My name is Francisco, but a lot of people call me Frank these days. I grew up around Miami, Florida speaking English and Spanish. I’ve traveled in South America and Europe, and I’m headed back to Europe this summer after many years away. I’m a musician, an artist, a traveler, an amateur philosopher, a healthcare student, a writer, and a lover of all culture. I love deep conversations and understanding how others see the world. Language learning is the best way to facilitate that. It’s been a passion of mine for many years, and I’m now confident in English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I can get by in French and Italian. Currently my learning focus is Ukrainian.

Francisco thank you so much for your comments. I think you'll progress quickly and efficiently. Keep going. You like music, it will be an excellent way to practice regulary with the advices I gave you. The combination between hear the music, read the lyrics(learn it by heart) and singing until you can sing almost like the singer. With this method your listening skill, vocabulary, grammar, reading skill will grow up quickly.

    La River (une chanson) Salut à tout le monde ! Je suis un musicien Américain et ça c'est ma primaire tentative d'écrire en Français. Je suis ici en Paris et je m'ai senti inspiré haha. Je voudrais savoir si tout ici fais de la sense, si vous voyez quelque façon du faire plus poétique ; quelque idée, correction, ou suggestion sera très apprécié. Merci beaucoup ! La River C'est ce que je sais pas que tourmente l'esprit J'ai déjà trop parlé, laisse-moi en silence Pour retrouver la paix dans la voix intérieur Moi j'en voudrais pas prendre des décisions J'avais habité dans cette univers De potentiel, mais j'ai oublié Je vais en une direction je peux pas controler Je me perds dans la flux, la river de la vérité C'était une idée folle que m'a dérangé Que la libre arbitre signifie liberté Le chaos d'un monde que voudrais pas changer Je faisais des rêves, elles sont mortes pour commodité J'ai dit que j'étais prêt et je me suis trompé On est déjà dans la tempête c'est trop tard pour préparer Mon cœur c'est chaque fois plus froid mais de battre a continué Je ne voudrais qu'une dimension un peu plus lumière

    Preguntas sobre Perú

    Acabo de comprar un boleto de avión para Perú, y vengo en 7 semanas. Voy a llegar en Lima, y tengo ganas de conocer al bosque, a Machu Pichu, y a Cusco durante mi tiempo en Perú. Pero no sé como se puede viajar por el país, y de verdad no sé que es lo mas bello o interesante en Perú. Que es importante de saber antes de venir? Que es lo mas chevere en Perú? Díganme cualquier cosas que puedan. Gracias (-:

    Les cours de Français

    Je me demande pourquoi - en general, dans les classes de Français - on apprend Français "correct", en lieu de le Français qu'est vraiment parlé. 

     

    Par example, on apprend "nous sommes" en lieu de "on est", ou la negation avec "ne" malgré que personne ne parle comme ça. 

     

    Vous savez pourquoi c'est comme ça? Qu'est que vous pensez sur les cours des langues?

    Para la quinceañera de mi hermana No podré asistir a la quinceañera de mi hermana, así que voy a llamar la fiesta y hablarle por el altavoz. Su español es peor que el mío, pero aún quiero hablar bien, porque todo de la familia estará. "Sofia, sofia, sofia. Espero que en este momento tengas una corona. Lo mereces. Estás creciendo, y creciendo muy rápido. Demasiado rapido. En verdad, es increíble. Yo me acuerdo de cuando eras una jovencita. Realmente, sigues siendo una jovencita para mi. Pero coño, ¡como has crecido y madurado! Me acuerdo de cuando tenías 3 años, y peleábamos sin fin cada día. Me acuerdo de cuando tenías 5, 6, 7, 9, 12, 14, años, y peleábamos sin fin cada día. Creo que es impossible parar totalmente, porque en verdad eres una mojoncita, y yo soy un mojon, y eso es algo que no cambia con el tiempo. Pero sabes que te quiero, porque eres mi hermana, y eso tampoco cambia con tiempo. Hace mucho tiempo, mama dijo "amigos vienen y van, pero la familia es para siempre" y hay un montón de verdad en esa oración. Créeme. Yo he perdido muchos amigos, muchas cosas físicas, me cambiaron la vida totalmente este año pasado cuando me mandaron a vivir en Montana. Pero durante todo, mama, papa, aba (eso es lo que llamo mi abuela) tio y jackie y toda de la FAMILIA estaban en mi vida para apoyarme con todos de mis dificultades. De la misma manera, todo de nosotros siempre vamos a estar en tu vida para apoyarte con todo de tus dificultades. He oído que ahora tienes un novio. No lo conozco, así que no puedo decir nada sobre el. Mama dice que el es un buen chico; que el es agradable. Voy a decidir eso para mi mismo. Pero sepa que si algo pasa entre los dos de ustedes, yo estaré para "enseñarle una lección", si me entiendes. Estoy bromeando, seguro que no habrías escogido un mal chico. Will, I'm just saying I'm sure you're a wonderful young man and that I'm excited to meet you soon. Sofia, vuelvo a casa en 4 días, y no lo puedo esperar. El resto de la noche debe ir muy divertido (pero no demasiado divertido), y sepa que eres una mujer increíble. No mereces nada menos que lo mejor. Sigue adelante, sigue avec les etudes de Français (esto es Francés) y nunca te olvides de donde vienes. Nunca te olvides de tu familia, de tu cultura, y de tus genes. Eres inteligente, eres bellísima, eres talentosa, pero encima de todo eres latina. Cuando vengo a casa, solo voy a hablar en español, así que ¡ponte la pila! Nos vemos pronto, querida, y te quiero mucho.

    Couple questions about Korean grammar I just started learning Korean two days ago (on my own) and it's all very foreign, so I'd like to get some clarification on a couple things. If you only want to answer one question that's okay, because there are a lot! First, everything on the ends of verbs, right? I mean, conjugation doesn't really exist, and all the information comes from the post positions. That's what I'm understanding, anyway. On that note, there are a TON of postpositions, right? But not all that many are used very often? Is it true that personal pronouns are usually emitted? For instance, would I say "I'm going to the bathroom" or "Going to the bathroom"? And as far as word order for that sentence, would it be "I bathroom to going am"? Thank you so much!

    한국어 안녕하세요! 저는 오늘 한국어를 동사다 시작하였다. I don't want to say that it's difficult, but at the least it is very different! I was trying to say "I started to learn Korean today" I've memorized the alphabet pretty well, but have no idea what to do now. Do you guys have any advice for a beginner in Korean? 감사합니다!

    She took credit for something she hadn't done

    .Chapter 7. How Mother Took Credit for Something She hadn’t done.

    Bruno continues in his aim of finding searching for (it sounds more natural this way) something interesting for killing the to kill time. He is looking for a tire and a rope with which he can make a swing, and he decides to ask Lieutenant Kotler for a favour.

    *the break in the writing here helps with the fluidity. It was kind of choppy and confusing as one paragraph*

    Kotler is a young, serious, and good-looking soldier. However, in spite of these good attributes, (which only Greetel seems to have noticed, as far as she flirts with him constantly) Kotler is a very arrogant, pompous (this basically means show-off, but is much more eloquent), and very mean malicious (again, just a more sophisticated way of saying what you wanted to) person. He treats Pavel - who is the person in charge of cooking and buying the house's groceries for the house’s supplies - mercilessly.

    Pavel helps Bruno to find a good tire, so the kid he could make a good swing. Everything is going ok until Bruno falls down off the swing and has wounded wounds himself. He has some scratches, a nasty cut and a wide, quickly bleeding gash. Pavel, who was being close as he was to Bruno, to be seeing the danger, immediately goes to help the young boy. He cleans and disinfects the cuts gently. Bruno is impressed, thinking to himself "how could a cook do it so well?". Pavel, seemingly reading his mind, mentions that he used to be a doctor however he is not anymore (this is redundant, as it is implied).

    When mum arrives, she's grateful for Pavel’s help, but she tells Pavel that if anyone asks for what happened there, he's to say that she was the one who had helped Bruno. When in fact, all that she had really done for the child was nothing at all she wants to take credit for something she hadn’t done.  (The last line you had written sounded a bit awkward)

     

    I'm sorry if you didn't want it corrected this much! I did get a bit carried away, and a lot of changes were made for fluency in the story, and not necessarily for proper grammar. I hope this was helpful (-:
