    Memorizing Vocabulary

    I have been studying Spanish for several months now. I have an on-line teacher, I use DuoLingo, have started using italki to find a community partner to talk with, and I have been using my Spanish as much as possible when interacting with Spanish speaking people. I do something on a daily basis. But I feel like I am not remembering what I learn very well. Does anyone have tips for helping the information to "stick"? Do you use memorization techniques, journals, etc to help retain the information? Thank you. Carla

    I have enjoyed using Duolingo. It is free and has been one part of my program but for me it wouldn't be enough to use it alone to learn the language. I have found it fun to do a little bit everyday and it provides spaced repetition to refresh my learning as I go. I am motivated to keep my daily streak going.

    I would most likely substitute the phrase "it appears that" or "it seems that". It applies to something that is clear to you now but you did not expect. Apparently they closed early tonight. Apparently she forgot about our meeting.

    I was raised in Canada and live in the US. In general Canadians tend to enunciate words more than Americans. Vowels tend to be "longer" in Canadian accents. For example the word "sorry" in Canada would have a pronounced "o" , like "soar-ry" while in the US it is usually a little shorter - almost sounding like "sar-ry". The word "again" in Canada is pronounced "a-gain" while in the US it sounds more like "a-gen". And then there's the famous words in the Canadian accent, out and about. In Canada it sounds like "ow-t" and "ab-ow-t" while in the US you wouldn't hear the "w" sound. They also say pasta with an a like in "and". In the US they say what sounds more like "posta" as they would say it in Italian. Those are just a few examples of what I hear in the Canadian accent.
