Welcome to the forums!
I'm afraid your introduction in Spanish may only be understood by someone who speaks English. You've tried to translate word-for-word, which seldom works. Here is my attempt (I wasn't sure what you meant with 'aunque ...'): Vivo en el norte de la Florida, pero voy a mudarme a Fort Lauderdale en el sur del estado. Soy policía. Estoy llevando un curso de español en la Universidad de Estado de Arizona. ¿Qué tal mi intento? Note that there is an 'Accents' drop-down menu located above where you type. There you'll find all the special characters you'll need to type in Spanish. |

Don't worry at first. One learns a new language like riding a bike: by practicing, little by little. Thanks for helping me = Gracias por ayudarme. Thanks = Gracias For = Por (in this context) Helping = Ayudar (when it has a noun function, in Spanish: función sustantiva) Me = me (it's attached to end of infinitive verbs) A pleasure. |

Nice to meet you. As a policeman you need the Spanish anybody else would learn with common Spanish phrases but also those certain Spanish phrases that have to do with police work. Just a few examples: Párese o disparo!! Mírame! Acuéstese en el estómago. Manos arriba! Mantenga las manos arriba. Ponga las manos detrás del cuello. Ponga el arma en el suelo. Arrodíllese y quédese allí. Separe las piernas. Dése vuelta y camine hacia atrás despacio. Ponga una mano detras de la espalda. Ahora la otra. Stop or I'll shoot! Look at me! Lie on your stomach. Hands Up! Keep your hands up. Put your hands behind your neck. Put the gun down. Kneel and stay there. Spread your legs. Turn around and walk backwards slowly. Put one hand behind your back. Now the other. Do you want the phonectic pronunciation? For example: Párese of disparo! would be; PAH-ray-say oh dees-PAH-row! Stop or I'll shoot! A proposito/By the way, as a policeman you want to always speak to people in the polite usted form. You understand what that is? All the commands above are in the polite form. Spanish speaking people will speak back to you in the polite form. Last edited by Villa; April 17, 2014 at 10:57 AM. |

South Florida will offer you the possibility of Spanish language immersion an opportunity that many students go to other countries to experience. The language is prevalent in Miami, and very widely used Broward County as well.

When I move to South Florida, I'll definately be going to downtown Miami and Spanish restaurants on a daily basis. The language is much more prevalent down there than it is here in North Florida, but there are some spots I would like to hit up here once I get decently proficient. Also, does anyone know a good way to get down sentence structure? I've built a pretty good vocabulary so far through Rosetta Stone, Duolingo, and what I've learned from school and can conjugate present, preterito, and imperfect, and a bit of the future, but I still have issues with sentence structure as illustrated above. I've been taking a look at this site today for some basic help. http://spanish.about.com/od/sentence...in-spanish.htm Last edited by LaPolicia; April 17, 2014 at 02:37 PM. |

I give it to you in Spanish is To you it I give. Spanish is very Shakespearian.
