Hola a todos, hello everyone,

[mexouriman08]

Like all of you here, I am learning more than a language. I am learning a new culture also. I hope to share what i can in return for what you have to share with me. Thanks to everyone in advance.

Como todos aqui, estoy aprendiendo más de un idioma. Estoy aprendiendo una nueva cultura también. Espero compartir lo que puedo a cambio de lo que tiene que compartir conmigo. Gracias a todos por adelantado.

thank you all, for your welcoming messages!
You're very welcome. From the looks of your Spanish in post #1, you're not a beginner. ¿Cuánto tiempo llevas aprendiendo español?

I have learned a lot from my wife = He aprendido mucho de mi esposa.

Estamos casados por tres años :bad:

I have learned a lot from my wife = He aprendido mucho de mi esposa.

thank you for the suggestions,, my intent is to say "i am learning a lot from my wife" as in 'i continue to learn' (suggest translation for this?)

The first thing David wrote, Aprendo mucho de mi esposa, is how you say I am learning a lot from my wife as well as I learn a lot from my wife.
Estoy aprendiendo mucho de mi esposa means that you are currently learning (right now, in the very act of), and isn't what you want to convey. Use the progressive tense (estar + present participle) only when you are actually in the process of doing something (and have been interrupted). For example: Estoy comiendo = I'm eating here (what do you want?).

MMmM, Rusty won me, I want to help you but Rusty did first it.

Podríamos tener un hilo para hablar de las diferentes traducciones del verbo ganar en inglés. En este caso no puedes usar to win sino que tienes que usar to beat. "Rusty beat me". :( Lo siento mucho, pero así es.

[CrOtALiTo]

Then, the sentence should to be so, I wanted to help you, but Rusty beat me first.

Thanks David.
