¡Hola! Me llamo Nicola.
Brian and I have just returned from our first Spanish class at Centro Español Lorca.
Our new teacher Natalia will need to be very patient with us! Luckily she is from Argentina so we can pick up some tips on the South American accent and pronunciation and also some useful insights into life in Argentina.
Over the course of the next few weeks we hope to grapple with some basic conversation language as well as some useful phrases like “pass me that hammer please”!
I have studied a little Spanish in the past but this is a new experience for Brian. His analytical mind means that he is asking loads of questions and will prove to be a challenging student.
Today we learnt how to ask and tell the time, how to ask about some simple travel arrangements and – most importantly – how to ask for a menu in a restaurant.
We’ll keep you posted on our progress.
¡Adiós! Hasta semana.
