¿Que se considera un insulto a la gente de tu país?

Posted by Malik Tlili in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:22 am

​These answers have derived from the ITALKI website. After reading the answers given to my question i have made a connection between the US region and Hispanic regions. Both are insulted when a person says a derogatory comment regarding loved ones or respected people. Any comments made about one's family usually result in the person becoming insulted. Also both regions share the same sort of pride in their masculinity. The men in both countries are highly insulted when another person denounces a mans strength or "manly behavior". This is the same for women who are derived from their feminine characteristics. These similarities seem common due to direct commentary. In spain one of the most offensive ways to insult a person is to make a generalization of their lifestyles. Making jokes about the low waged salaries that natives make or their growth of population will cause the locals to reach their boiling point. Any generalizations about the native people is the most effective way to insult a hispanic native.

POST # 3

Posted by Maria-Carolina Latorre-Socas in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:20 am

I had DeShawn help me again on this post. In this post I asked "​If you got to learn fluent Spanish in a Spanish speaking country. Would you?" "What country would she want to go to?" Also "Why would she want to?"

Spanish Food

Posted by DeShawn McLeod in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:19 am

Again, I spoke with my friend Maria. I wanted to branch out and talk to other to get outside my comfort zone, but my experience with online Spanish conversation wasn't the best. I tried to use Livemocha. At first, I couldn't get a conversation going. Then I decided to try something new: SharedTalk. Since it was a new online format of speaking to other people in different countries, I wasn't sure how to start a chat. With many attempts, I couldn't get a conversation going with anyone. When I had went back to try again, my account had been deleted, so I was out of luck. Then I was contemplating about knowing more about Spanish food. So, I went to my friend Maria, because she's a Venezuelan native. I know a lot about Puerto Rican style food, so I wanted to know more about other Spanish. In the audio it's the conversation about Spanish food.

Priopos En Español

Posted by Malik Tlili in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 10:04 am

For the remanding conversations i have decided to use an alternative conversation website. It is called ITALKI and it resembles a social networking site that simply posts questions that are answered by other members of the site. For my second topic i have chosen to learn "pick up" lines that are used in hispanic regions. I have received numerous amounts of feedback on the site. 1. Si la belleza es pecado tú no entrarás al cielo. 
2. No vale la pena regalarte una rosa, porque tú eres entre las flores - ¡La más hermosa! 
3. ¿De qué juguetearía te escapaste muñeca? 
4. Si besarte fuera pecado, me iría feliz para el infierno. 
5. Bendito sea este ingeniero que construyó este pavimento para que pasara tremendo monumento. 
6. Con un bombón como tú, no me importa ser diabético. 
7. Así me la recetó el médico para curar el dolor de mi corazón. 

My favorite pick up line is the fourth one. It says, "if kissing were a sin, i'd be happy in hell". I found this adorable and beneficial. It is not a "lame" pick up line and the meaning is not offensive. I believe that one day in the future i will use this pick up line.

Convo 3

Posted by Katherine Hatzidais in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Thursday, May 10, 2012 at 12:15 am

​I learned that they seem to be very social. I learned that their greetings are not different from what I learned. I thought they would would be very different and have more slang. I learned that sometimes I need to be more careful and not so quick to speak. I was surprised that they use are pretty typical. I'm proud that I knew a lot.

I made sure my conjugation was correct. My partner, Isa was making sure that I conjugated everything correctly and that we could have a conversation with out having errors. My partner and I were really happy and excited that I had everything almost correct with no errors. It shows that I am improving with practicing and such. We both thought that was something that would not happen so we are surprised but in a good way. I had a good conversation this week!

Posted by Madeline Walls in Spanish 3 - Gierke on Wednesday, May 9, 2012 at 9:19 am

i talked to Javier from spain who was a very nice man and answered my questions and didnt want anything in return. we talked about what kinds of foods he like and what he does with his family. my goal for my second was to talk about what life was like for people in another country and i feel like i could have done a better job with that. but i do feel like i learned a lot about Javier. over all i was very happy with my conversation.

Proyecto de Conversación 3

What does public transportation look like in Spain? Conversation with Jose from Spain.

My partner taught me that commuting in Spain is much like commuting in America. I learned that my partner is a very nice person, although he does have a short attention span. I learned that I enjoy talking to others, as the conversation lasted for a while once again. As we spoke more and more, I became increasingly interested in his cultural traditions. Once again, I was surprised that he was so friendly. If someone tried to chat with me about a school project, I doubt that I would be as cooperative as he was. I am proud that I learned something from the chat. I had a fear that it would be useless because no one would actually accept my chat request. Next time, I plan to talk with more people at once.

This time I talked about to a different person and I found out that his grandmother taught him how to speak and he was very grateful for that. I got the hint that he has a strong relationship with her. I learned that I need to be a little more careful with my conjugation. I learned that I wish I learned how to speak Greek. I was surprised that he thought he learned more from his grandmom than he would from his mother. I'm proud that this was a pretty good conversation once again. I want to ask more questions but I'm not sure if I would be able to understand.
