Hola

[Meeks7300]

Hola! Mucho gusto! Me llamo Randy. Vivo en New Orleans con my esposa y 5 ninos. Quiero aprender espanol.

I have found that there are multitudes of resources for someone trying to learn the basics of Spanish. It's a little tougher going from the bare essentials to conversation skills. I hope this can help me. Who knows maybe I will be able to help someone else as well.

For now buenas noches. Hope I got at least some of my Spanish right.

What you wrote in Spanish mostly correct, except that it lacks accents, opening exclamation marks and ñs. Please note that many words change their meaning if they don't have the right accents or ñs.
On top of typing message boxes, however, there is a dropdown menu for inserting Spanish characters. :)
