Tentacruel Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Discuss the Spanish Language. Edit: In case a mod sees this, the title is not meant to be misleading, it's referring to how native speakers pronounce the letters "y" and "ll" as an English "j".

The Amazing Avian Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 I speak [s]Mexican[/s] Spanish pretty well. It's my home language so if I didn't speak Spanish I would assume I was retarded. Which would be weird because retarded is a pretty long word and if I truly was retarded I wouldn't know I was retarded because I wouldn't know what retarded means.

Cin Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Never had the option to be able to do it, not in my list of languages I want to learn. (Arabic (well was, I did want to do something with Egyptology) and Japanese being the only ones there). I suck at learning languages anyhow.

Dark Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Yes, Spain uses [i]vosotros[/i] and its tense a lot more often than other Spanish-speaking countries, so I'm screwed if I go to Spain, as I'm used to using [i]ustedes[/i] to refer to more than one person I am directly talking to. I have like 10 years of learning Spanish behind me, and I stopped at Spanish 5 (AP Spanish is hell). Also, [i]ll[/i] becomes y, I don't know why you said it became j. Llevar is pronounced as "yevar", not "jevar". The j becomes an h, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt. Colonel Remo Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 yeah, so "Joe" became "hoe" he was pointing out the Ll and the Y and the J and the H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dаrkrai Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 I'm half English and half French. I have four years of Spanish behind me and I'm still not very good at it. However, if I ever were to go to Spain I would know my way around language wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
