I dont thinks so but its a nick name I got from one of my employees because I wont eat octopus, so I guess when it comes to food I am a little bit. Yeah picky is correct but they spell it piki so as they say when in Rome lol

but when it comes to speaking spanish with people who speak spanish I freeze up and cant remember what to say, I know a lot of people who are learning english who have the same problem, they know alot of english when they talk to me but let someone they dont know come along and its all forgotten, I think it comes with being comfortable, or rather confident with what you know, and in spanish I dont know enough yet, no where near, hopefully one day tho

No problem, it's called self-consciousness, and everybody is affected by it, in one way or another.

The internet has been a blessing, because it has allowed us to do away with our inhibitions, in more than one way too! :-)

Welcome,

I am also very self-conscious about speaking Spanish. I worry about my pronunciation but the only way to really learn is to practice.

me gustan mucho los mariscos. Y en ingles es mejor decir " I don't like fish or seafood" o " I don't like fish or seafood either", o " I don't like seafood " porque pescado es un maricso. Please feel free to correct my spanish anyone, thats why i'm here
