¡Hola Teboso! I made few corrections.
Mi animal favorito es el gato... también me gustan los perros y las tortugas... Cuando era pequeño, de niño, tuve una lechuza una vez... Y también me gustan los caballos...

En cuanto al arroz frito... yo tampoco sé...

(Tell me if any question on my corrections... I cannot tell you much on the fried rice!)

Just a little correction, pretty good sentence.

A mí me gustan los tiburones aunque quisiera nunca tener uno cerca, en cuanto al arroz frito tampoco tengo idea .

I like sharks, although I would not like to have any shark near me ever, regarding the fried rice I have no clue.

Hola Teboso, Irmamar, Gina, Alx.
Ah, supongo que como dice Irma, te refieres al gallo (el pollo) para comer...
Bueno, yo contesté con el animal de compañía...

Si te gusta la fauna y los animales... aquí tienes un link para una serie sobre "el lobo"...

http://www.rtve.es/mediateca/videos/...o/770922.shtml

Aunque es de los años 80, todavía me parece válido...
Espero que os guste...

Jpablo,¿Te gusta la lechuza? Donde yo vivo, la lechuza es un monstruo horrible. Pero, ¿Tal ves es differente donde esta? (I just know I butchered that one. )

(Is "also" correct spanish? Or is that tex mex? as in: ¡Also, nunca tienen el gallo por comida!!)

No sé que un lobo este. Lo siento. Pero Perros, Se Amo si eso era largo.)

Preguntas:
1.Jpablo, I'm not sure I understand the difference between Que and Cuál. Help, por favor?

2. Also, "en cuanto al"... That's interesting. I don't understand that. Help? please?

Also, Really? Nobody knows how to make Fried rice? MADRE DE DIOS!!! -er, I mean, AY CARUMBA! heheh... just kidding.

(Is "also" correct Spanish? Or is that tex mex? as in: ¡Also, nunca tienen el gallo por comida!!) No, that's Tex-Mex, in Spanish also = también, or if negative "tampoco" [not... either]

No sé que un lobo este. Lo siento. Pero Perros, Se Amo si eso era largo.) (Not quite sure what you meant here?)

Preguntas:
1.Jpablo, I'm not sure I understand the difference between Que and Cuál. Help, por favor?
*Qué = What
*Cuál = which (one)
(To make it very simple for now... these words have more meanings, but I don't want to complicate matters for now.)

2. Also, "en cuanto al"... That's interesting. I don't understand that. Help? please?
Means "regarding that" "as fas as [whatever you talk about] is concerned"
Also, Really? Nobody knows how to make Fried rice? ¡¡¡MADRE DE DIOS!!! -er, I mean, AY CARAMBA! heheh... just kidding.
Hi, Teboso, I gave you my answers above and fix few points. Let me now if that clarifies your questions.

Listen, there has to be a reason why you like the rooster. I can see liking the peacock but a rooster????

Mira, tiene que haber una razón por la cual te gusta el gallo. Yo puedo ver el que le guste a uno el pavo real, ¿pero el gallo?

¿Que clase de arroz frito? Yo tengo muchas recetas.
What kind of fried rice? I have many recipes.

I would like to have said that: I enjoy diving with sharks, that I want to dive with whale sharks and that sharks are not as violet as people think!

So here is my attempt:

Me gusta el buceo con tiburones y querría para bucear con tiburones ballena. Los tiburones no son tan peligrosos como las personas piensa.


Thanks Jpablo.

¡Muy bien! (Angélica te ayudó aquí...) Puedes seguir adelante, y seguir diciendo lo que quieras practicar...

¿En serio te gusta bucear con los tiburones? ¿De verdad? ¿Estás ya acostumbrado a hacerlo?

¡Fenomenal, hombre!
¿Un tiburoncito puede llegar a medir 12 metros?
¿Cómo de grandes son con los que buceas?

Some corrections below (if you have any particular questions, I'll be happy to answer them)

Some notes:

- Keep in mind that adjectives must agree with the number and gender of the noun.
- "Tiburones ballena" is a tough combination of words: Since both nouns refer to only one animal, one of them is invariable, so only the first noun changes to fit the plural. Some similar cases can be found here.
