Someone from Argentina called me a "pussy" jokingly and I want to say back, "Don't talk about something you can't get!" as in..you won't be able to get some..

Hi, i'm from Argentina (a South America country, not Mexico) and i want to improve my English skills and what's better than talking with a real American? I handle Skype but i don't have any problem using another programme to communicate.
The deal it's something like this: talk in english about whatever, if you want to know about my culture, my way of living, whatever, i don't have any problems, i'm doing this because i want to enter the English Translator university the next year and one of the best ways is this.
Maybe you are interest on talking Spanish too and we can talk in both languages, you help me, i help you. I think it's a win win situation
Thanks all to read the thread, and if you have any doubt, just send me a message
Thanks a lot!

im trying to decide in btw those two countries for study abroad..

i wanted to go to chile but they speak horrible spanish with all the slangs, Argentina is very racist (well i heard so bcuz of their european culture and im asian), Colombia is like a not yet developed country and a bit dangerous..? which country for spanish?

I've finished my french course. And i've just got delf for A2. And i need to take spanish course, so i can go to my brother's in argentina next year. But i can only afford 1 course

Should i continue or change to spanish course?

Is it easier to learn spanish after mastering french than before mastering it?

Thank you.

I plan to study abroad in either Colombia or Argentina for a good two months. Which should I go to and why? Also, if u recommend another country, feel free to do so :] TIA

i really want to learn to speak spanish and i am young so i heard it will be easier. plus i have a friend from argentina who speaks spanish and now i really want to learn.

i would rather do it with some kind of software where i can put a cd in and listen to it but also have dvds that i can watch as a visual.

does anyone know any good programs that i can buy to help me learn but ones that arent super expensive?

i looked at rosetta stone but to get spanish 1, 2, and 3 its 9 and thats waaayyyy too much!

Some of my family taught themselves how to speak Spanish. (One of them was in the war and ended up learning about 3 other languages). My best friend is from Argentina and speaks Spanish fluently. I don't want to ask them...Is there anything for free online that will teach me the whole language? Is there anything I can buy for a low price? I'm thirteen if that has anything to do with it. Thank you so much!

Spanish level after one year in Argentina?
Hello,

I was hoping i could get some good answers.

I have a job starting in Buenos Aires soon, lasting one year. I have studied spanish on and off for four years (2 years in school, 2 years evening classes). I consider myself decent level yet when i do online assessment tests i generally come out at intermediate(lower) level. Pretty dissapointing but there we go.

My job will be only partly talking in spanish, in the office, needing enough to get by. Mostly i will be talking in english to british clients.

However, i will be likely to have an argentinian girlfriend i have met out there before.

After one year of living in buenos aires, with an ok standard to begin with, what sort of level do you imagine i will have by the end? in general i am fairly good with languages. Any advice welcome....!

What do you do for fun in Argentina?
What is a typical day like?
What's your favorite food/drink?
What do you think of Americans?

there is an exchange student program in argentina based souly on learning spanish, i will be taking classes 4 hours a day 5 days a week for a month i will also be around a spanish family and all the people in the country. when i come back is it safe to say that i will be 100% fluent in spanish?

My parents are from Argentina, and Spanish was my first language until I was 2... but living in America I lost my accent. But I can still speak Spanish pretty well, except my grammar is off because I was never formally educated on the language, I just learned by ear... My parents would speak to me in Spanish and I would respond in English.

So, is Italian easy to learn if the person already knows Spanish?

I'm planning to study abroad and trying to decide between Spanish, French, and Italian. Learning two languages is also an option.
Given that you had the option of learning Spanish in either Spain or Argentina, French in France, and Italian in Italy (of course. lol) which one (or two) would you choose to learn and why.
Thanks in advance

I want to study Spanish abroad, but I don't know which country to go to! Every country seems so beautiful to me!! Have you ever been to a Spanish-speaking country for a good amount of time? Which continent or country would you recommend?
I wanted to go to either;
Puerto Rico (Ok, I know it's not a country. lol)
Dominican Republic
Argentina
Venezuela
Cuba
Spain

I've never even been to any of these places though, so I really don't have a clue. It doesn't have to be a country from the list I gave above, just tell me what your opinion is plz
Thanks in advance

I´m travelling on January to Argentina, so i want to learn some spanish
there. Thanks.

I have taken Spanish classes in high school and in college. I know the basics, meaning I know quite a few words and could get by if I HAD to. My new years resolution is to become completely fluent. I plan on going to Argentina to visit my best friend (she had to move back because the government won't let her get her citizenship unless she moves back for a few years and then returns. Crazy and ridiculous, I know). Anyways, so I would like to be able to be fluent, be able to understand speech, and be able to speak it easily. What would be the best way to do this? Like I said, I know a lot of the basics and I don't really want to re-start at the beginning. I also don't have a lot of money either. Please don't suggest classes, because they either move too fast or too slow for me. Other than that, any tips appreciated, thanks!

I am hoping to study abroad in argentina in the spring. I am looking to practice my spanish via music and literature, hopefully stuff that relates to the argentine culture
Any recommendations?
Please don't say reggaeton, I already have a lot of it. It's not really great for practice. It sure is awesome to dance to though!

i am learning the language they speak in argentina so i need to know how they speak,some pople say they speak kinda ittalian ,german,spanish but i dont know those languages so if u guys have any site to help me or any places or books thx!!!!!
stop go away bethany! I KNOW PROPER ENGLISH EVEN TAGALOG!

I've studied at several and they all suck...Ecuador, Argentina, Costa Rica, Spain, Guatemala.

I want a Spanish school where the teachers aren't only locals, but actually educated with M.A's in education or Spanish language and teachers who acutally have teaching skills and don't only follow a book.

Please, nothing in Mexico (not interested in that accent).

I have heard Argentina is great from some and bad from others. Please send me some information about your expierence there.
Either from an Argentine or someone who has simply traveled there.

A good place to study or learn Spanish in Argentina

I have been selected, along with 20 others at my university, to study Spanish abroad for a semester. I can choose to visit one of the following (excluding Spain which is the obvious choice):

1) Argentina (where my husband is from but I've all ready been there)

2) Dominican Republic

3) Ecuador

4) Peru

5) Portugal (for portuguese)

6) Brazil (portuguese)

7) Costa Rica

Which would you choose, and why?
lmao at the b.i.t.c.h who pointed out I have a big forehead. Thanks for pointing out the obvious! At least I have a real pic. Keep hiding behind your avatar kiddo (and remember to avoid violations stay relevant to the question). -Mrs. Forehead

I was in Argentina this past month and I totally fell in love with it. I loved the culture, the people, weather, everything. My question is, is their any jobs for an American who can't speak any Spanish in this country? I have a masters degree from a pretty good university here in the states so I'm wondering if its possible for me to teach at a International American University down in BA (Lincoln University). Are these jobs competitive? Any other ideas? Thanks!

PS- I'm a 25 year old male, if that makes a difference.

I'm a Mexican-American with rudimentary Spanish proficiency. I'm weighing Spanish lessons in Mexico City and Buenos Aires. I've always wanted to travel to Argentina, but Mexico is so close. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Cost is a consideration, but teaching quality is my main concern.
