Hola todos

Hola todos
 

¡Hola, todos! Firstly, let me say I am so glad to have found this rich site! I am not online a lot, but lately when I am I have been checking in here. Several friends at work are Latin American and speak Spanish as well as English, so I thought I would put in the time and work and see if I could do the same! I have met a few people from Honduras, Guatemala, Columbia, and the Dominican Republic, but since most of the Spanish speaking people I know are from Mexico, that is where my main interest (of culture, holidays, and regional dialect stuff) lies. I am taking Spanish 1, and so I am pretty much at the speaking level of a nino (though I may be taking that a bit too far by watching Plaza Sésamo, and having some arrorros on my mp3 player). I really enjoy learning Spanish by reading “dual language books” like My First Spanish Reader by Angel Flores. I think that participating here will greatly improve my Spanish (especially the ever confounding accent mark!). Please feel free to correct my Spanish at anytime.

Dejarme decir que estoy alegre he encontrado este sito rico. Unos amigos de mio son de honduras, guatemala, columbia, y republico dominico pero casi todos son de mexico. Por eso, mi foco es en esta país. Lo siento por mi pobre español. Yo estaré mejor. Gracias.

Crotalito, Maria Jose is not lost. She is just busy :P I miss her too. She told me she'll come on next month.

Thanks David.

Thanks for the welcome Tomisimo!

Especially thanks to Crotalito for your corrections. That is very helpful. I will have to study that! :coffeebreak: I can only image how hard it must be to learn English as a second language. Best of luck!

Also, thanks Jchen for the friend invite and welcome!!!

Bienvenido Nino :D
P.D:If you do not know, "el niño" is also nickname of a famous footbal player (Fernando Torres, Liverpool) and a golfer (Sergio García)

Bienvenido Niño....

Y solo para elaborar en lo que escribió Sosia, "El Niño" es tambien responsable por los problemas del clima en varios países.

Just to add to Sosia's comments about "El Niño", it is also a phenomenom that causes havoc in our climate!

:showoff::showoff:

Hola Niño / nene...

Bienvenido, tio, usa este foro para lo que quieras...aqui estamos

:)

you're welcome :) :) El Nino ;)

Gracias a todos!:cool: por las ofertas de bienvenidos y ayuda y amistad. Seguro los necesitaré.

:soccer: I did not know that a fútbol player and a golfer were called "El Niño"! I had forgotten about the warm ocean pattern of the same name.

Actually, I do have a quick question: I am trying to get a handle on the usage of 'ya' (which seems to be used in a lot of different ways :duh:), but when Croalito's correction says "...siento por cometer errores pero mi Español es muy pobre aun..." could 'ya' been similarly as 'aun'. I'm not familiar with 'aun' at all, but they seem to have some overlapping meanings. :thinking::thinking::thinking:

edit: Cool, PlanetHopper! I just looked up 'tio'; I didn't know it also meant "guy" (and "old man" jajaja!)

Hey, dude, tio does not mean old man, it's just guy, lad. Out of this context means uncle....

Un niño que tenemos en el recuerdo es Billy el niño, we like US romantic symbols

Another one for the thread, the feminine

La niña de mis ojos= pun, also means the pupil in your eyes / my sweetheart
