Hello, My name is Deborah.  I have always been interested in speaking Spanish. Throughout high school and college, I have enjoyed learning it. However, one problem that I noticed about learning Spanish in the classroom setting is that I became more of a translator as opposed to a speaker of the language. I noticed that after all that hard work, I could not hold a conversation in Spanish.  Anyhow, over the years I have dibbled and dabbled in teaching myself the language and I have made some gains. Last, in July of 2018, I went on vacation to DR. That trip renewed in me the desire to become fluent.  I have been working towards that desire every since.  I am hoping to have more opportunities to converse with Spanish speakers and not just be engulfed in a book, or an app. I would love to share my language as well.

Deborah is doing an amazing job, her level has improved really a lot since she started with me, she just needs to stop overthinking what she needs to say. Making mistakes is part of the process.

    Mí restaurante predilecto se llama la asando companía de Fabes (Fabes Roasting Company). La atmósfera es muy bueno, el interior es muy limpio, la gente son muy amables, y la comida siempre es sabrosa. Siempre hay musica de latina jugando. Hay un comedor por dentro pero hay un otro para la gente les gustan comer al aire libre. De todos modos, me encantan sus yuca fritas, maduros, flan, tres leches, judias verdes, arroz chaufa, pollo asado, y arroz con habichelas negras. No estoy segura si este enlace va a funcionar. https://www.facebook.com/fabesroco/videos/503441023978578/

I can proudly say we made it. En inglés, sustantivos (la persona, el lugar, o la cosa) siempre estan capitalizaron. Además, cuando escribiendo lo es muy importante para usar oraciones completas y no fragmentos. De todos modos, nice try! We are all learning!

    Okay, haggling over prices is not typically done in main streams establishments in the US, the price is the price and tax is not included. With that said, you may be able to haggle with a flea market vendor or a street vendor. If this is the case, you would need to speak like you have some "street cred" (credentials) so you don't get taken on a ride. Anyhow, you could use the last 2 statements, but I would drop the part where you say "if I pay cash" . This is not proper English, but you could simply say: I can get you 85, let me hold it for 85, I got 85, you sure you can't do 85 or do it for 85? , or I can only do 85. More than likely, the expectation is that you will pay cash. Hope this helps.

    I would suggest learning them as you come across them, but don't let that be your focus.
