Blog - My Spanish Notes

Postby rodneyp » Mon Jun 08, 2009 11:35 am

Since blogging is all the rage these days, I figured I'd getting into the blogging business myself, and I decided that my blog should be about the latest passion in my life, learning Spanish.

My blog is all about the things I pick up from talking with Spanish speakers. My moto is no grammar, no verb conjugations, just sharing the things I learn from real conversations I have while running the streets in Mexico or talking with with my Spanish speaking amigos and associates here at home.

I've actually been running this blog for a while now, and just realized that I should be sharing it with you all as well. Here's the link:

I hope you all enjoy it, and feel free (I encourage you) to leave comments and share your own experiences. As I make updates I'll let you know by updating this thread, or if you like, you can sign up for email updates or as a follower of my blog.

¡Que disfruten!

I really like Rodney's blog and recommend it highly to anyone trying to learn Latin American Spanish. I think both beginners and more advanced learners will find it interesting and helpful.

I just wrapped up my series of posts on Olvidar / olvidarse.

As usual, don't be shy about sharing your experiences or correcting any mistakes I may have made.

Hola Rodney. What a great blog entry! I was totally unfamiliar with the expression "hablame al contado no en abonos," and I loved your explanation. Muchas gracias.

If you enjoy my blog, the best way to keep up with the latest posts is to either join the email list or subscribe, because I don't always post here when I make updates. Well, of course there's the old fashioned way of just checking in every so often.

Enjoy!

¿Me explico? vs ¿Me entiendes?

This one is fairly interesting, as it seems some Spanish speakers find "me entiendes" offensive.
