Hi... Happy to start here... I am more about languages and books and poetry and writing and music and growing flowers, that sort of things...Not a very technical person, but becoming better.. Now in my constant fighting with the computer he(can't call this clever machine "it" )is not always the winner...But woe to you, support team... You are going to have much more work now that I have come...

I've always thought I had a knack for learning languages. These are my languages in order of fluency:
1. English - native
2. Korean - read, write, & speak at home but am only semi-fluent - I speak almost like a native speaker but have a poor command of grammar because I never took more than one formal class.
3. Spanish - learned by living in El Paso, TX for 2.5 yrs
4. French - learned during Jr & Sr High for 5 yrs - Never met more than one person who spoke French...I met this person in Mexico and since I didn't speak Spanish at the time, and this person didn't speak English, we spoke French.
I look forward to following you on your journey and wish you success!

My wife and I are trying to learn Spanish from babel and another app.
Any suggestions to speed up the journey of language learning?

Yes!
The easiest way to learn any language is:
1. Immersion. You have to put yourself in a place where you have no choice but to speak the language. Take a vacation to Mexico, South America, Spain, Puerto Rico, etc... There are tons of drastically different dialects and accents but the core of the language is the same. Who do you know who speaks Spanish who can help you?
2. Duolingo - Spanish. I don't think there's a better app for learning Spanish anywhere. It's great!
3. Think of everything you need to say to hold a conversation in a situation. If you're ordering food at a restaurant, what nouns do you need to know and what verbs do you need to conjugate? Once you've gotten one area down, continue to add more while practicing what you've gotten down. Situational learning puts the language in a framework that makes language learning easier.
Hope this helps!

Hi Yvon
thank you.
I think it is obtaining freedom in writing in English. I am not a native English speaker. Now I have poetry written enough for my own book ( You may look - "He is Risen" and other verses in my account) and lots of blogs covering various topics which English- speaking people like.
But I still have lots of things to learn and do.:)
thank you.

Thanks for the add Vera! I have done the same...Have a great weekend, the sun is shining brightly here today in Dubai, and the cool weather is on its way out...
The 'cats' post you made was good BTW, I have a couple and the two not only provide lots of entertainment, they kill anything bad (like mice, leaf eating caterpillars) that moves in the area...
Sometimes they do get the good things that happen by, like an unwary bird or the 'andechs' bug catchers found here (not sure of the word for these in English) too...
Cheers!

Hi Vera, we are together here hardly knew anything about using the computer until the last summer when one of my grandkids volunteered to teach grandma how to send emails and read them.
Being in the WA community has further helped but that has not been without asking questions every inch of the way, the support team truly has been there for me. Very nice to meet you here and I wish you much success.
Cheers,
Juliet.

Thanks, Juliet.Of course, as a writing person I pretty much exaggerate things. I surely know how to do some stuff. But still there's so much to learn, so very much...
Pleasure to meet you!

Hello, and thank you!
Being new to the community is both a challenge and a blessing. I think the challenge will be to me (and about me and what will work for me) while the blessing is when you get to know new friends and people who can guide you and advise you about what to do next.
I'll surely be bothering you with questions soon enough, for now, I just want to say cheers!

I am also 'techy challenged' and so grateful for the WA training as it takes us through those little steps in building a website. I would be so lost without this training.
It seems whenever I sit down in front of a computer, it knows that it is me and will have fun being mischievous. Luckily, I have a computer whiz as a husband, and as soon as he sits in front of the computer to help me sort out the techy mischief, lo and behold, the computer behaves itself. :)
Anyways, welcome to WA. This training is designed to help us 'techy challenged' folks get beyond, so that we can focus on flowers and poetry, etc. All the best to you.
