Desde pequeño me han interesado los idiomas, el primero que comencé a estudiar fue inglés, luego coreano, japonés, alemán, latín, italiano, sueco... tengo nociones básicas en diferentes idiomas aunque me he concentrado más en japonés y sueco en este tiempo. Since childhood I felt great interest in languages, the first one I studied was English, and then I started with others, I have basic knowledge of different languages, but the ones I've most pay attention to are Japanese and Swedish. I will be more than happy to share information and learn with whoever contacts me:D

    Привет, Анастасия. Думаю, что это слово не очень обычно слушать, но обычно читать по книгу или на фильме.

    Hello Sergiu, Juan Carlos is correct, when expressing hopes and desires we use subjuntive. Espero que ella esté bien. I hope she is ok. No pienso que sea tarde, I do not think it is late. We also use subjuntive with beliefs or assumptions, but only in negative. When beliefs and assumptions are thought to be true, we stick to indicative. Pienso que ella sabe. I think she knows. No pienso que ella sepa. I do not think she knows. Creo que ellos están cerca. I think they are close. No creo que ellos estén cerca. I do not think they are close. You can watch this video and see more examples and a longer explanations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j1cASPV_6A I hope I was able to help.

    Hello, Marzi. I would highly recommend the following self-study programmes. Audio Programmes: Mitchel Thomas Method, Pimsleur Method. Books: Assimil's Spanish with Ease, Routledge's Colloquial Spanish and Teach Yourself Complete Spanish. Computer Programs: Tell Me More and Rosetta Stone. If you have further questions on how to go about the learning process when studying by yourself, you can text me any time.

    Hey, Deana. What Sergio says is true, many people will use these particles as if they were the same. But the following should shed some light as to how they are used as grammar dictates. "La" and "lo" are forms used in accusative, id est when él or ella are the object of the action. Yo miro a Juán. (I stare at Juán). Yo lo miro. (I stare at him). (so, "lo" replaces "él" when receives the action). Yo veo a Andrea. (I stare at Andrea). Yo la veo. (I stare at her). ("la" replaces "ella"). Now, if the noun is in the dative position, that is not the object of the action, but the one that receives the consequence of the action, in that case "le" replaces "él" and "ella". Yo canto una canción para Juán. (I sing a song for Juán) Yo le canto una canción. (I sing a song for him). Yo canto una canción para Andrea. (I sing a song for Andrea). Yo le canto. (I sing for him/her). ("le" replaces the masculine and feminine pronouns in the dative) In this sentence "una canción" is the accusative: Yo canto una canción. (I sing a song) Yo la canto. (I sing it). Una canción is feminine, therefore can only be replaced by "la" in the accusative pronoun. Yo canto un verso. (I sing a verse). Yo lo canto. (I sing it). Un verso is masculine, so must be replaced by "lo". Now, if you want to reduce both, accusative and dative to pronouns, "le" will change to "se". Yo canto una canción para Juán. (I sing a song for Juán). Yo la canto para Juán. (accusative reduced to "la") (I sing it for Juan) Yo le canto una canción. (dative reduced to "le") (I sing a song for him) Yo se la canto. (dative reduced to "se" and accusative reduced to "la") (I sing it for him/her) Yo le canto un verso a Andrea. (I sing a verso for Andrea) Yo lo canto a Andrea. (accusative reduced to "lo") (I sing it for Andrea) Yo le canto un verso. (dative reduced to "le") (I sing a verse for her) Yo se lo canto. (dative reduced to "se" and accusative reduced to "lo"). (I sing it to him/her) I hope this helps you.

    Off is a prepostion. All prepositions will depend on a verb, the verb will determine the meaning of the verb. Learning the meaning of every preposition makes little sense since the use of prepositions between languages is highly arbitrary. I would suggest learning verbs together with the prepositions that can be used with a specific verb, that will give you a more accurate idea of what the preposition means with every verb.

    Здравствуйте, Ксения. Оба можно сказть, но есть разниця значений. Например "vendo productos del mar" это значит "я продаю море продукты"... Это означает: морские раковины, рыба, камни с моря и т. Д. Вещи, которые приходят с моря. Но "vendo productos de mar", Это означает: лодки, парусное оборудование, плавательное оборудование и так далее. Вещи, которые будут использоваться в море. Это происходит потому, что «de» плюс существительное могут использоваться на испанском языке, чтобы существительное использовалось как прилагательное Например. Comida de bebé. Детская еда. Где «de bebé» - это прилагательное «comida». Если я отделю существительное от слова «де», это больше не прилагательное. Если я говорю «la comida del bebé», я добавляю определенную артикель, это означает, что я использую не слово «bebé» как прилагательное, а как существительное, потому что это конкретный ребенок, а не какой-то ребенок., Вот почему "el" называется «определенная» артикль, потому что оно определяет конкретный предмет. Таким образом, предложение будет означать «еда ребенка». Я надеюсь, это поможет Вам. Прошу прощения, мой бедный русский.

    Hello Taylor. I would like to add to Carlo's answer. These words, as many others, will share certain semantical coincidence, but their whole scope will highly depend on the region. For example the word "villa" in Chile may mean a upper-class neighbourhood, but in Argentina, a "villa" is usually referred to a poor area with a very negative connotation. Giving birth to the word "villero", someone from a "villa", which in Argentina may be used to speak of a poor, uneducated, theaf... But it would not be used to refer to a person who may also live in a villa but is an honest person. Having said that, from the strict point of view of the original meaning of the words you are asking about, "vencindad" and "vencindario" come from the word "vecino", meaning "neighbour" in Spanish, which, in turn, comes from "vicinus", Latin for "around" or "close". Therefore, "una vecindad" and "un vecindario" are places where people is close to each other, therefore both words may be used to decribe an area where houses are close to each other. It would not be used to describe a community, that even being a community, houses are far apart. Though the people living there, they will call themselves "vecino". Barrio, comes from Arabic "barri", meaning "exterior". The word was used to describe the houses or any type of comlex of buildings that was immediately outsie the city walls. So, "barrio" had the idea of describing places where people could, live, go to chuch or work, but that was not inside the city walls but outside. Therefore, a "barrio" will normally refer to districts of a city that are not the centre one. Even if there is an area of the centre where people live, that area would not referred to as a "barrio" just because it is in the centre of the city, but it could perfectly be called a "vecindario" or "vecindad". So, now you can see that a neibourhood in Spanish could be a barrio or a vecindario at the same time... Or only one of them... Or even neither of them.

    Well, I assume you know what "other" means. So, you will always use "another" if the subject is singular (only one) and as long as there is no definite article (the). I need another book. The book is only one and there is no definite article "the" or words like "any", "some". But: I need the other book. The book is only one, but there is "the" so "an" cannot be introduced. I need other books. In this case the noun (book) is plural, so "an" cannot be used. I need any book. As for "someone" and "somebody", they used to be different but the difference is today considered to be obsolete, so you can use them interchangeably.

    Ciao, Giulia. Elena ha raggione. Nella lingua italiana, l'infinitivo d'un verbo puo finie in "are", "ere", "ire" (cantare, credere, salire) e questi ci dicono che il verbo è infinitivo. Ma nella lingua inglesa no c'è questo sistema d'infinitivo come parte del verbo, quello che c'è è una particola infinitiva, e ciò è "to". Questo "to" ci dice che il verbo è infinitivo. Quindi "to" è parte del verbo e si dice "I want to dance" (voglio danzare) e quello "to" è lo stesso che "are" nella parola "danzare" perche entrambi significano la stessa cosa. È per questo che non si dovrebbe dire "to not interrupt the meeting", si dovrebbe dire "not to interrupt the meeting" (per non interrompere la reunione). Nonostante, negli ultimi anni molte persone nelli stati uniti ed in Canada dicono "to not interrupt". Espero di averti aiutato, scusa il mio italiano, ma non lo parlo da molto tempo.

    Hola, Fernando. Los usos posibles de "so" son los siguientes: 1) Tan / tanto. She is so interesting. Ella es tan interesante. I was so late. Yo estaba tan atrasado. They worried so much. Ellos se preocuparon tanto. 2) Así. I do not think so. Yo no creo eso (literalmente "yo no pienso así"). Do not talk to me so. No me hables así. By so doing... Por medio de hacerlo así. (literalmente "mediante así hacer"). The so-called... El así llamado... 3) Así que. I did not have the keys, so I could not enter the house. No tenía las llaves, así que no podía entrar en la casa. He needs the card, so tell him where to find it. Él necesita la tarjeta, así que dile dónde encontrarla. He asked me so I told him. Él me preguntó así que le dije. She was so mad! So what? Ella estaba tan enojada. ¿Y qué? / ¿y a mí qué? (literalmente "¿así que qué?"). La palabra "such" tiene los siguientes usos. 1) tal. I would never do such a thing. Yo nunca haría tal cosa. Yo nunca haría semejante cosa. Such ideas are quite interesting. Tales ideas son interesantes. Existe la expresión "There is such an interesting country in Africa" Hay un país tan interesante en África. La traducción hace parecer que "such" puede traducirse como "tan" como si fuera "so", pero la verdad es que la traducción es una simplificación de lo que realmente dice en inglés, de traducirse completamente sería: Hay un tal país que sucede ser interesante. Esa sería la frase que mejor expresa todas las partes de la expresión en inglés, pero siendo que esa expresión sería demasiado redundante en español, se debe simplificar, pero eso no quiere decir que "such" en efecto siginifique "tan". Es simplemente que el "tan" se usa en español para poder expresar la fortaleza de la expresión en inglés, sin tener que usar la misma estructura ya que sonaría demasiado aparatosa en español. Puedes ver lo mismo en algunos des los ejemplos de arriba, tuve que adaptar la traducción. Espero que esto te ayude.
