tapes

gotcha............I'm gonna go get some Menudo tapes.

I've been looking for my set of instructional cassettes but I could only find the French (ugh!) and the memory improvement ones.

As soon as I do, I'll forward them to you, Andy.

In the meantime, use your hands a lot. LOL!

bloody,

Actually, I have downloaded (wink wink) the entire 30CD set from Pimsleur. it is supposed to be one of the best systems......just gotta find time to use them.

I started last year but gave up quick. My wife thought I had an imaginary Spanish friend because I'd be sitting on the porch by myself saying "Entiendo Castillano" out loud over and over again.

use my hands alot???????

Ummmm.......OK.

LOL!!

I know how you feel. My in-laws are Greek and all that I know how to say after 20 years is "tikanis, cala, and opa"-- oh, and "scata" or something like that.

Time to break out my Zorba the Greek video again!

I only lived in spanish-speaking countries for the first 4- 5 years of my life. However, my folks demanded that I speak the "mother tongue" around the house. I hated it as a child, but later in life was very thankful that my parents insisted on it.

It's allowed me to understand Latin, and the root words for Romance languages.

And, it also comes in handy, when I want to goof on people.

(sorry for the continuous threadjack, hog)
