Solamente he viajado a Canada dos veces y al caribe muchas veces (más de 5), nunca he visto europa (pero me gustaría ir a España... :lol: )

Creo que Halifax, Nueva Escotia es mi ciudad favorita: cuando visité en 2005 o 2007 (no recuerdo exactamente el año), me pareció muy tranquilo. No he visitado ningún otro lugar en Canada, pero quiero ir a Montréal aunque no hablo francés...

(y una nota sobre su gramática, siempre es "el tema" porque casi todas las palabras -ma son masculinas porque tienen un orígen griego)

¿Antes, has visitado Canada?...¡Qué afortunada!- Me encantaría ir allí en el futuro. ¿Además, has viajado al Caribe- ¿A qué país?...porque mis abuelos son caribeños; son Jamaicanos.

...Y, gracias por la nota gramática. :)

¿Deportes?

¿Jugáis deportes? ¿Tenéis un deporte favorito?

A comenzar...

No juego deportes, pero soy aficionado del automobilísmo (la Fórmula 1 en particular).

I would be delighted. I grew up in Phoenix, Tucson, Chicago, and in places in Mexico, with Spanish-speaking people. These were happy times. Unfortunately, I stupidly did not learn Spanish and , now that I am old, I regret it, because, if I had learned, I could read the literature of many cultures in the original.

OK...at random, pick a word in English that you want to know and I try to tell you what it is in Spanish- if I know it. :)

Some: autism, personal anhillation at death, despair, orthodox Judaism, Zen Buddhism, beautiful and intelligent young women in London.
That will keep you busy for a few minutes.

Well, I already know how to say "autism" and "orthodox judaism" because they are almost identical in Spanish; autism=autismo and orthodox judaism=judaísmo ortodoxo. I also know how to say "beautiful and intelligent young women in London"- 'Las chicas/las mujeres jóvenes bonitas/preciosas y inteligentes en Londres'. NOTE: 'Chicas' means girls and 'las mujeres jóvenes' translates literally as young women. I know the word for 'death' (muerte) and 'personal' (personal)- pronounced 'purr-son-al', but I had to look up the word 'annihilation' (aniquilación): I think the phrase would look something like this "aniquilación personal a muerte" or "-de muerte". Also, despair is quite easy; despair=desperación. I don't know how to say "Zen Buddhism," though.
