I‘ve decided that I‘m gonna give myself an (early) goal/birthday present this year. I‘ve been fascinated with the Spanish language since I was 12 years old. I‘ve always wanted to learn how to speak it properly & fluently. I took a HS class but never took it farther. Bought this book 2 years ago & downloads the Duolingo App last night (4am 🤣). My goal is to be fluent before my 35th birthday in 2020 & idc if I have to do it alone lol!! 🤣📚🎶💖

Sace Buena suerte! It's not free but yabla.com is a great resource. 4y
DieAReader Gracias @RestlessFickleBookHoarder !! I‘ll check it out some time!!📚💖 4y
Sace De nada. 4y
CoverToCoverGirl Oh wow! Awesome goal! 👊 4y

Vaguely song related anecdote: we got married at Rochdale Town Hall and my husband went for a couple of prenuptial pints at the Baum nearby and Lisa Stansfield was in there. He says she was talking loudly about herself which quite frankly is fair enough.

"Before we can study language coolly, we must strangle our group prejudices; we must explode a great number of hoary fallacies, themselves derived from emotional attitudes. As no language is either beautiful or ugly, so no language in intrinsically either superior or inferior to another. The fact that English has become a world auxiliary is no evidence that it is a better language than Basque or Finnish;(24)
