Ok, looking at my tenses and usage, would it have also been acceptable to say "Voy descansar ante de limpiar la casa" or maybe "Voy descansar ante de limpio la casa" to indicate that I will be cleaning the house in the future, after I'm done resting?

Now, excuse me if I repeat myself too much, but... Get a novel in Spanish, especially if it is something you already read in English and you really liked it, and start to read, write and speak in Spanish the best way you can speak Spanish, anyway. You'll notice the difference in a month or two, sometimes in less time than that! :-) |

Take it slow
I find that the best way to learn a new language is to not put too much pressure on myself and make it too lesson-y. I like the idea above about reading a book you already enjoy in English, in Spanish. Also, your involvement with the forum community is great. That fact alone means you at least have an inherent enthusiasm in the language, which will make the learning process much easier.

Hello Arielle, nice to meet you and welcome
I hadn't seen this thread before because I registered later (I haven't read old threads, maybe I should, but there are so many!) I think that one of the things that have stimulated me to learn languages, at least some words, is the necessity of communication with other people. If I'm traveling (isn't it "travelling"?) abroad I need to make questions with the people of the country I am in, to know an address or somewhere to eat something. Or in my country, as a lot of tourist come here, sometimes they don't speak Spanish and ask you something in another language. So I need to communicate something to the others and I feel that I need to know some languages to find one which we are able to speak each other. This necessity is a great incentive to want to learn a language. I believe that the need is the thing that moves to a human being to do something. Brisa otoñal , I rest after doing my homework, not before |

Oh! I was almost sure it was "travelling" (r ->rr, l -> ll), but the marker said it was bad written. Now I know. Thanks for your corrections

Deletrear in inglés es una batalla entre él que escribe y el idioma que dura toda la vida y el idioma suele ganar.
