Hola a todos! Me llamo Luis (Louis) y estoy tratando de comenzar mis estudios para aprender español otra vez pero no es facíl. Antes de ésta vez, yo estudié español por un semestre en un colegio en un pueblo pequeño pero se me olvidó la mayor parte de mis estudios. He estado estudiando español otra vez por mas o menos cuatro meses con Pimsleur pero todavia es dificil para mi hablar con personas porque estoy un poco nervioso. Hello everyone. My name is Louis and I am trying to jump-start my Spanish learning but it is not as easy as it looks. Before I started studying again, I studied Spanish for a semester (around three to four months) in a community college in a small town near me (That was a few years ago). Unfortunately I forgot the majority of my studies but some of it is coming back to me. I am willing to refresh my memory and in the meanwhile hopefully teach some things. I started studying again about three to four months ago and it has all been self-study with Pimsleur, applications, and workbooks. Learning a new language is not easy especially when you are nervous, that is me!

    Me pregunto si se puede utilizar "darse cuenta" en este sentido. Como "Me dí cuenta que ella era gringa por su acento" o "fijarse" me habia fijado que ella era gringa por su acento. No se, no se. Todavia estoy aprendiendo tambien.

    Tambien estoy aprendiendo español y y he oido muchas frases... algunas son "estoy muerto(a) de cansancio", "estoy super o muy cansado(a), estoy agotado(a), estoy molido(a), estoy hecho(a) polvo, y quizas tengo sueño pero creo que la ultima es una manera muy distinta que las otras.. Estoy seguro que hay mas maneras que se puede decir esta frase.

    Hi, Alex. This is how I see it. Protect and defend can mean virtually the same thing, pretty much to secure. Although, it's meaning can depend on context. To be protected means to be secured or to keep from being taken away or stolen. Ex: In America the second amendment protects citizens' right to bear arms. To be defended can also mean the same thing. The soldiers defended their homeland by engaging the enemy that had trespassed. It can also mean to support or to represent. His friends defended his statement that he was indeed not at the scene of the crime. The attorney defended his client as he believed he was innocent.

    Hi everyone,

    I just want to share with you some little stories of my life. Today I want to talk about my day.

    My day started around 9 am. Someone was at on my door, it was my cousin. She told me that she would be returning later. After she left, I ate my breakfast and took a shower. I received a message from a "friend". He invited me to go to an antique car exhibition. I accepted his offer and went. The exhibition was in a museum called "Palacio de Minería", it was close to Main Square. The exhibition finished around 6 pm. It was time to go home, so I took the subway. After that I went with my cousin to get hamburgers for dinner.

    Tomorrow is a holiday here, so there is no class for me.

    Thank you for reading this. Please, if I have make mistakes let me know. See you!

     

    Good story, I may have misunderstood some of what you were saying. These are my corrections. Good luck!
