This thread is for the discussion of the language and culture of Spain and latinamerica Let's talk in Spanish and Inglish ! Este hilo es para la discusión del lenguaje y cultura de España y Latinoamérica. Hablemos en Español y Inglés !
Common misconceptions of the Spanish language: >J, is pronounced as a strong H Spanish laugh "jajaja" is just the same than english "hahaha", but the "H" in Spanish is usually softer or doesn't make a sound.
>The strong R and Ñ Often the hardest things to pronounce for foreigners. For a strong R, you are supposed to vibrate your tongue on top of your mouth. For Ñ, wich always comes before a vowel, you can just pronounce every "Ñ" as "ni" and its pretty close. Mañana = Maniana.
>False friends A lot of words in english have relatively direct translations in Spanish, but a few words have a completely different meaning while being almost the same word. "Constipado" in Spanish means that you have a cold, and implies having a lot of mucus in the nose. The translation of the English word "constipated" is actually "estreñido". Diarrhea is just diarrea tho.
Ask your questions and doubts about Spanish and someone will try to help you !

"ni" by itself = nor tampoco = neither jaja sí
Hunter Morris
Por el camino, me parece que si la J espanola es una H inglesa fuerte para ser honesto. Hay casos en los cuales la "H" espanola se pronuncia, o por lo menos existe con forma aspirada?
no pongo tildes porque estoy hasto de cambiar mi teclado

Is it worth learning Spanish? I have dyslexia so learning a lanuage is pretty difficult. I had German and French in school but never really liked it. But I always liked Spanish more. Any advise or sites I could use to try and learn just a bit.
Matthew Torres
Don't learn Peninsular accent. It's useless in global scale. Learn neutral accent (which is Mexican, those CNN and the Simpsons accent) instead.
Leo Allen
It worth, trust me. 3rd most spoken language in the world. And you can meet teens with brown skin and big titties.

Como é que digo em Espanhol:
"Quero enrrabar as princesas até elas ejacularem diarreia do cu e depois chupar-lhes o periodo"

Ian Parker
Qué significa cuando dicen que alguien es "flaite". Qué es callampa? Qué es waton?
El acento chileno es igual en todo el territorio o va variando? Por ejemplo, el acento de Santiago sería igual al de Punta Arenas?

>Quero enrrabar as princesas até elas ejacularem diarreia do cu e depois chupar-lhes o periodo "Quiero encular a princesas hasta que eyaculen diarrea y después chuparles el período"
Juan Peterson
Quiero meterselo por el culo a las princesas hasta que expulsen diarrea del cupo y después chuparles el período.

Really wanted to post this image from my Duolingo practice today
>Really makes you think
I think I'm starting to make decent progress in my Spanish studies after a year. I'm still only A1 or A2 but I feel like reading and listening is starting to get easier for me. When I heard Spanish it all used to sound like a blur but now I'm starting to be able to understand what the person is saying. Also I'm starting to be able to resd/listen without translating in my head.
My daily routine is >Couple minutes of practice with Duolingo while commuting >Reading random shit in Spanish for maybe 30 mins >Keeping Spanish TV on in the background with subtitles on >Listening to music or Spanish radio while on commute
Spanish feels like one of the best starter languages for English speakers.

>Yo Don't need to include pronouns, are most of the time unnecessary. (Kinda like am doing now with English.)
Some claim the voiceless/voiced merge was due to Basque influence. Is this true?
Noah Cox
Yes, except the "arabic" j,, i think, which i dont know where it comes from, but I havent investigated either
Aiden Young
Anyway, not all the changes I think have been bad, I adore the zeta
Austin Price
>Peninsular Does this mean that south americans don't understand European Spanish?
Sebastian Murphy
The "Arabic J" doesn't look like influence for me, but rather accommodation (S>ç to make sibilants more distinct, then ç>x to make it velar as [k] and [g]). But stuff as [z]>[s] and [dz]>[ts] is really weird, usually languages go the other way.

como yo poder para aprender espanol

Callampa es tanto pene como sin valor: Vale callampa = de poco valor, poca estima Chupa la callampa, agarra la callampa, etc= el pico, el pene, la tula, la collonta, el chino tuerto, la tula, la pirula, el pilín, la que cuelga, y un largo etc.
El acento varía, y las palabras también. Por ejemplo en el sur borran más consonantes que en Santiago (inb4 zona central, los huasos de rancagua hablan parecido a los de Conce): También (stgo) = Tamién (sur).

Ayuda
Mi gramática está de la verga como puedo mejorarla siempre tengo problemas con acentos, y s, c,
Also, read more, and write more with a pen, not with your pc, phone or whatever. That fucks your writing.
Noah Jackson
No me gusta los chicanos. Tienen que ir patras.
Andrew Powell
This is a language thread, keep your political views out of here pls. Btw "patras" does not exists in castellano.

La H siempre es muda en español. Hacha, helado, holograma... ¿Cuál es la sílaba tónica ? Si sabes diferenciar agudas, graves/llanas y esdrújulas es muy sencillo. >Esdrújulas Siempre llevan tilde. >Graves Llevan tilde si la palabra acaba en letra consonante (excepto "n" ó "s") >Agudas Llevan tilde si la palabra acaba en letra vocal, "n" ó "s".
