No sé qual de los dos prefiero una cucharada de aceite de ricino o un examen de física.

Yo sí: ¡aceite de ricino! Sorry, jchen :D

no, no, I'm going to study physics. You understand? :thinking:

Yes, I grasp understand you, I thought that you going to study psychology.

I'm sorry.

it's okay, don't worry :)

I'm sorry.
They're the same in Spanish:

Physics: física (from old Greek: fisis-naturaleza; -ica-relativo a)
Psychology: psicología (also from old Greek: psique-alma; logos-tratado de)

Both words in English and in Spanish come from old Greek :)

It's very interesting learning languages and then compare them, even when they are "lenguas muertas" (I don't know the word in English, dead tongues :confused: )

Ooops, sorry jchen. I just realized I gave you the wrong website. Badastronomy.com is Phil's website/blog. The forum where you can get help is http://www.bautforum.com

Good information at Phil's site, but BAUT forum is the place where you'll be able to get help with any science-related question you could possible think of.

Physician is also another word for doctor. Physic (singular) is also an old English word for laxatives and other remedies.

Dead tongues are OK. In England we usually say dead languages

Hi jchen
It really depends of what you want to do in the future.
Physics is more mathematical, and you will need to solve different kinds of problems.
Chemistry is more for memorize.

If in the future you want to make a technical study (engineer, bulding,...) you must choose Physics. If you want to make a economical/lawyer career chemistry will not be so hard to study.

Saludos :D

OK, thanks, Brute. Brute (I repeat your nick). Why did you choose such a nick? :confused:

I once owned a business called Bruere Technology BRUTEC. People started to call me "the Brute". Why Irmamar?

We often speak of foreign tongues (meaning languages) but a dead tongue sounds like a serious medical condition to us.

Yes, they'll check your homework. Like here, they won't just give you the answer, but they'll point you in the right direction.

And no, you don't have to pay to join. You just have to register if you want to post. (And yes, that's free).


well okay but I can't find the place to register

Did you see my post about it being www.bautforum.com (http://www.bautforum.com) instead of the first address I gave? The link to register will be at the top of the page, a little under the logo.

Brute sounds like "bruto" or "animal". I don't think you are like this. That's why I asked you. :)

I was writing and i have a doubt. How do you say: por eso te lo pregunto:

That's why I asked you
or
That's because I asked you. :?:

The first one sounds better to me, but I'm not sure.
Thanks :)

You are correct.

That is why you asked me the question

I answered your question because you asked me

This is on the contrary in Spanish:

Es por eso por lo que te pregunté.
