There're many ways to learn the language properly and well just I don't know about flash cards, I would like to know about them. Please give me the website where I can get the flash card immediately. And I can be sure with the flash cards can result easier to retain the words in your brain. I have used that method during more of three years using the notepad or a word page, and it quite has worked for me. But sometimes it's hard to search an specific word within of all the word wrote in the word page, I loss time and I haven't sometime the correct translation, already there're many word to have a several meanings in English. Then if I can remind some words without use the word page, then it could result for me gorgeous in the moment. Thank you for your advice.

Okay, I'm not sure what is allowed here but I'll post them and then if a mod removes them I'll send them to you in a PM or on facebook.
www.spanishdict.com - This website is really good for viewing flashcards. It has them in groups like "food" "body parts" and the like. It also has an image with the word and an audio of a person saying the word. This way you can be sure you are pronouncing it correctly. www.livemocha.com - This one has a language course. Curso de idioma. It starts of pretty good but then just turns into a vocabulary lesson in the last few lessons. I liked it anyway. |

How to Think in Spanish
I read Spanish novels beyond my expertise and it is helping. I get up the nerve once in a while to watch a movie without sub-titles, as well. At the end of watching those movies without sub-titles, though, I feel that I should have understood more. I suppose that is normal to feel that way when learning. Watching movies without sub-titles is probably similar to reading beyond one's level of expertise. Maybe I should look at it like that. Hmm. I'll try that attitude for a while and see what happens.

I started translating a novel from English to Spanish, Spanish being my native language. I wrote phrase after phrase translating each one of them to Spanish. I could tell in Spanish that there was something wrong with the translation since it is my native language, so back to the bilingual dictionary and rephrase and re-accommodate the phrase until I was understanding. When watching movies I figured that if picked up a Spanish movie (my native language) and played it with the volume down, so that I couldn't hear anything, if I watched with intent, at the end of the movie I would understand so much, but something at least to get the gist of movie. So if I did it with a movie in English and the volume turned up, I would "hear" a blah blah that was incomprehensible at first but eventually it would become legible somewhat to my ears. Coupled with writing, it made a big difference. I started to catch myself listening to words that I had written before and recognize them through the sound of the movies... etc... I made my own method. |

Para gentes que ser aprender el engles, el escuchando de la musica americana desde 1950-1960 puedes ayudar a aprendes los liricos english porque esta es musica lento.
(For people who are learning English, listening to American music from 1960- 1970 can help you learn the English lyrics because these are slow music.) Forgive me if I made so many errors in writing Spanish, but I have to try doing it on my own without the help of google. Corregir mis errores por favor. Gracias. |

Read and translate novels (books) as movies are meant to be watched and heard. By watching and listening movies, even though what you listen to does not mean anything, eventually you'll "hear" and "understand" more by the fact that you have been reading and translating novels. And you are welcome. |
