I tend to gravitate toward weeklies myself . I like

http://atlanta.creativeloafing.com/

which is in English. I've been attempting to read

http://www.mundohispanico.com/

in Spanish. Not sure how it compares with the other papers listed in this thread but I can pick up a copy just about anywhere .

They've both been around for quite a while.

I'll have to check out some of these other links .

Good deal then CrOtALiTo . I really like Creative Loafing's style and the stories they report on.

Wow, I'm sure I could have found a better way to say that previous sentence but oh well. Sometimes my English is just plain bad .

Don't worry AutumnBreeze, I didn't specify. But I'm asked to learn British English; sometimes I'm a bit afraid because there is a lot of American English here, although I understand the same. But the differences between some words are what make me feel a bit worried.

Irmamar, no te preocupes por la diferencia entre las palabras Yo miraba muchos programmas de Inglaterra, y hay un poco palabras que son diferentes.

lista de las palabras (más común)
y más grande lista

Pienso que ellos te entenderán aquí o en Inglaterra perfectamente, si tu usas cualquiera las dos POr ejemplo aquí usamos zipcode y postal code

inglaterra = america (más grande diferencia, pero te entiendo si usas cualquiera las dos)

flat = apartment
petrol = gasoline
bonnet = hood
lorry = truck

Yes, you are right, because sometimes when you are reading some post the words of the natives Americans are very different so as the Spain natives are very different, I believe that the words does not the different without the different does the person of the way as he/she express the sentence, sometimes I have the same problem than you have, but I try to read two times over the sentence and well, so I had learnt to understand the English, and well I'm not to be afraid in the I say.

I used to watch the old school 'Dr. Who' and 'Absolutely Fabulous' (not sure how popular they were with Brits but I liked them ). When I first started watching there would be phrases and words that just left me . But I eventually got it. And overall it's not as hard to get the vocab differences down as it it to understand some of the accents. Well, to me anyway.

Even here in the States, you should see a native New Yorker and a native to the deep south Georgian have a conversation .
