I'm getting my Spanish in to gear because I'm heading for a year's travel in July (although it's probably a fudged plan now like everything else people have planned out..). Just recently started some ENG / ESP online exchange lessons with this Argentine girl who is absolutely stunning + extremely intelligent and luckily Buenos Aires happens to be my first destination It's funny because I can pick up so many of the same linguistic mistakes that Poch consistently made in his pressers, particularly misuse of infinitives depending on tense and placement of adverbs (yes I found this incredibly frustrating with MP because it must have been that nobody had the balls to correct him and he'd reached a lazy plateau with his command of English).
My French is at intermediate or thereabouts but I know in my heart of hearts from the sheer dumbfudgery grammar wise it isn't for me. It's a fun language to chat brick in and it enabled me to do some cool work over in France but I'm not looking to get to proficient level with it.
I really wanted to cover as much of the globe as possible in terms of who I could speak to, so if I was going to really get in to that, Mandarin would be the logical next move but I've left it quite late to take on a language worlds apart from our quirky little jumble of one!
How about yourself pal?
I'm learning Spanish on Duolingo at the moment...care to PM me her contact details?
