Me presento

Soy informático británico (aunque no me ofende que un no británico me llame "inglés") y vivo en España. Hablo un inglés bastante formal, por ejemplo, con el subjuntivo. Estudié el español / castellano durante 5 años en el cole / instituto, y luego un par de meses cuando vine a España, pero intento a hablarlo como se habla cuando discrepa de como se debe hablar.

¡Bienvenido a los foros!

Seguro que ya hablas y escribes español bastante bien, llevando 5 años y viviendo en España

Y seguro que te gusta bien vivir en España también ¿no?

Claro. El finde que viene asistiré a una boda en Inglaterra y me estoy preguntado cuántos suéteres necesitaré llevar conmigo.

Bienvenido pijt33

Unas pequeñas correcciones, si no te importa:

Intento hablarlo (sin "a")
En el futuro (en lugar de "porvenir")

De todos modos, tienes un español excelente

Gracias por las correcciones. El segundo sería ejemplo de español de la calle, ¿no? Pues no veo esa aceptación en el Diccionario esencial de la lengua española de la RAE.

Your spanish is very good.

The second example is normal spanish

Quote:
futuro, ra. (Del lat. futūrus).
1. adj. Que está por venir. U. t. c. s. m.
"Tú no lo notarás en el futuro" You will not see it in the future.
"tú no lo notarás en el tiempo que está por venir"
"tú no lo notarás dentro de dos años..."

"porvenir" it's more used for happenings of a person/group

"Dame esa mano y te leeré tu porvenir"
"El porvenir de la humanidad lo decidirá el correcto aprovecahmiento de los recursos"
"Decide ya que Universidad quieres, es importante para tu porvenir"

Saludos

@David: yo diría que sí... según yo, la abreviatura es "Utilízase también como sustantivo masculino".
