Hola a todos

Me llamo Debbie,

Soy inglessa, pero vivo en Grecia, vivo aqui desde hace 23 anos. Quiero mucho aprender Espanol, creo que es un idioma muy importante conocer.

El problema para mi, es que aqui donde vivo ( vivo en una isla peqeno) no hay gente que hablan espanol, por eso no puedo practicar.

Espero que puedo conocer muchas personas en esto sitio.

Sorry for all the mistakes. As you can see l am very much a beginer, and this is the first time l have written something in spanish for all to see.

I look forward to hearing from someone.

Debbie

Hi Deborah,

Welcome to the forums. I hope you find lots of people to practice Spanish with. So you live in Greece? I guess after 23 years you must speak the language fluently. Is it hard? From looking at the Spanish you wrote, you're pretty good at Spanish too, in spite of not having anyone to practice with.

David.

Debbie,

Welcome to the forums!!! Your Spanish is quite good considering you've no one to practice it with. I hope to see more!

I hope you don't mind a couple of corrections. The majority are punctuation changes.

To help you write accents and the like, Tomísimo provides an 'Accents' pull-down menu. From there, you can select all the symbols you need. If you don't see the 'Accents' menu, click the 'Go Advanced' button (or double-click when you want to reply to a message to go directly to the advanced reply box).

Rusty

Debbie,
Estoy segura de que vas a aprender. Grecia, y una isla... qué bonito. Me has hecho acordarme de Mamma Mia! y Shirley Valentine (seguro que a Poli también).
Dicen que el griego es el idioma fonéticamente más parecido al español, y me acuerdo de una cantante griega que fue famosa aquí en España hace muchos años (Nana Mouskouri) que tenía una pronunciación impecable en español.
Mi canción favorita era Libertad, de la ópera Nabuco de Verdi.Está en You Tube si te apetece escucharla.

Hola María,

¿Qué tal?

Si la isla que vivo es muy bonita, no puedo imaginar viver en otro lugar, y Shirley Valentine fue una de mi películas favorita.

En febrero fuí a Barcelona, éste invierno quisiera ir a Madrid. ¿Cómo estás allí?

Well i'm going to go now and take a look on you tube, at your favourite song, l'll tell you what l think later.

Nice to have met you María.

Saludos
Debbie
