    Just a side note, some cultures are offended by tips.   I don't think Spanish/Latino is.  But it's worth noting, if you decide to learn Japanese. :)

    Some mnemonics for memorizing the common "ll" verbs.

    I'm not sure if anyone else has this issue, but I've had a heck of a time memorizing the common "ll" verbs.  They all seem so similar and there's nothing like them in English.  Here are some mnemonics I've used for helping to memorize them. 

    llegar - to arrive.  Contains the word "leg".  You need to use your leg to arrive somewhere.

    llenar - to fill.  Contains the word "lena".  Picture actress Lena Dunham, who is "full figured".

    llevar - to carry or wear. Sounds like "lever" To carry something heavy you need a lever or leverage.

    llorar - to cry. Sounds like "your arm".  You'll cry if you break your arm.

    llover - to rain. Contains the word "over".  It rains all over, or it's raining over there.

    llamar - to call.  Picture a llama making a telephone call.  Here's a silly advertisement from Argentina called "la llama que llama".  Watch it, and you'll never forget the meaning of llamar. :)  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wcWn31S4zU

    A prize is received for winning a game or competition. For example: "She won the grand prize in the lottery." An award is received for doing something well. For example: "His parents gave him an award for getting good grades." A premium is received for completing a specific act. For example "He received a government premium for installing new windows on his house". Premium can also mean the amount you pay for something (like insurance premium).

    conflicting opionions

    or

    mixed feelings

    I think "mixed feelings" sounds more natural, but either would be understood.

    Hola Miguel. Lo siento por los los errores, no hablo espanol muy bien. "Was" y "were" son el pasado de "to be" (ser/estar) I was - Yo estaba You were - Tu estabas He/She was - el/ella estaba We were - estabamos They were - ellos estaban "Own" puede ser un verbo o un adjetivo. Cuando es un verbo, "to own" es igual de poseer. "I own a car." Poseo un coche. Cuando es un adjective, "own" es igual a propio. "I have my own house" Tengo mi casa propia. "any" y "some" son expreciones de cantidad. "Any" se usa usualmente en frases negativas. "Some" se usa in frases afirmativas. Por ejemplo: "I don't have any money". No tengo nada de dinero. "I have some money". Tengo algo de dinero. In ingles no es posible hacer dos negativos en una frase. Se usa sufijo de "body" cuando tiene referencia a una persona. "I don't know anybody here". No conozco nadia aqui. Se usa sufijo de "thing" cuando tiene referencia a una cosa. "I didn't eat anything." No comí nada. contracciones populares: I am = I'm you are = you're they are = they're We are = we're do not = don't did not = didn't They will = they'll We will = We'll are not = aren't could have = could've
