Hello everyone. My name is Anders and I'm a 35 year old native speaker of Danish from Northern Denmark. I've joined the iTalki community mainly to get my Spanish into better shape, so if you're a native speaker (and teacher?) of Argentine Spanish (which is the variant of Spanish that I personally find to be the most beautiful :) ), I'd be very interested in talking to / being taught by you. Also, anyone looking to improve their level of Danish is very welcome to contact me, though I mostly prefer talking to non-beginners, seeing as at least some experience speaking Danish usually widens the range of topics that can be discussed ;) Have a good day!

    Niels gave you a good answer: Vi gir' (giver) / Vi vil gerne gi' (give) Even more colloquially (and somewhat figuratively), some people might say: "Den / det er på huset!", literally meaning that something is "on the house", but that would probably qualify as slang :) - also, in phrasing your question, "er der et udtryk som mener..." and "... mener på engelsk?", it actually should be "betyder" in both places instead of "mener". Other than that, very nicely phrased, so keep up the great effort!

    Eres la culpa de... VS La culpa de... es tuya Hola a todos, Hace tiempo, leí la frase "eres la culpa de todo" que me pareció algo raro. Es una expresión común / normal tal como "Todo es culpa suya / tu culpa"? Y se la usa también en los pasados imperfecto y pretérito? ("Eras la culpa de todo" / "Fuiste la culpa de todo"? Muchísimas gracias de antemano!

    "Quitarme de tu memoria" = X en inglés? Hola a todos, Caí sobre la frase "quitarme de tu memoria", pero no estoy muy seguro de qué significa exactamente... Por eso, quiero preguntarles si significa A) "remove myself from your memory", es decir "hacerte olvidar de mi"? B) "rid myself of the memory of you", es decir "deshacerme de tu recuerdo"? En otras palabras, quién se olvida de quién? O es que la frase tenga un significado completamente distinto? Gracias de antemano!

    "Sometime" has the same meaning as "someday": I'd love to go and visit you sometime (meaning that I don't necessarily know when, but at some point in the future, I'd like to go and visit you) "Sometimes" has the same meaning as "every now and again": Sometimes I feel lonely (meaning that I feel lonely on a more or less regular basis) Hope this helped :)

    "Starting to breathe again" en español Hola todos, Puede ser que esta pregunta sea un poco rara dado que es de carácter "semi-poético", pero imagínense que en inglés, un amigo suyo acaba de romper con su novia y le preguntan: "So, how has life been after the break up?" Y su respuesta es: "Pretty bad, but I'm starting to breathe again" o "Pretty bad, but I'm still breathing". Cómo se traduciría las partes "I'm starting to breathe again" y "I'm still breathing" de modo natural y similar al original en ingles (es decir, semi-poético / metafórico)? Muchas gracias por su ayuda!

    "Ya" and word order in Spanish "Ya" is a peculiar phenomenon in Spanish with many meanings and uses. For instance, one can say "Ya voy" and "ya" adds a sense of immediacy (or latency, depending on where you're from)... However, is it (generally) possible to flip the order to say "Voy ya"? And if yes, is there any change of meaning? My question also extends to other words than "ir", e.g. "Vengo ya", "Sigo de pie ya", "Me levanto ya", "Te conozco ya" - thanks :)

    Think of it this way: Let's ask ourselves the question: Why do we like things? The answer, of course, is that the things that we like have certain "likeable" qualities that MAKE US like them, so in other words, I like music because it (has qualities that) MAKE(s) ME like it... So, let's say you like classic films = team gustan las películas clásicas = classic films MAKE YOU like them She likes fast cars = le gustan los autos rápidos = fast cars MAKE HER like them But if she likes you, it means YOU have certainly qualities that MAKE HER like you = you make her like you = le gustas (tú) The same if she likes me = le gusto yo The same if she likes us = le gustamos (nosotros) Based on the above logic and examples, it should make sense to you now :) It's true that most examples will be either "gusta" or "gustan", but not whenever someone likes you, me, us, or even more of you in peninsular Spanish (eg. she likes "you guys" = le gustais vosotros) Hope this helped! :)

    No. Either "una persona noruega" or simply "un noruego" (if male) / "una noruega" (if female) :)
