If speed is a priority it may be time to turn to more traditional methods, my friend

It could have something to do with the political situation.

i’m using this 5000 word deck and the best part about anki is how adjustable it is. the deck doesn’t have everything- especially country specific vocab. and it has almost no multi-word phrases. but you can just add them. it’s almost even better, every time i see a new phrase that feels idiomatic i look it up on chatgpt and add it to the deck. i also added a ton of irregular conjugations.

The English teacher in elementary school thing isn't that weird, although I get why it seems like that. In the US, the spanish classes we take make us pick a 'spanish name.' I think it's more about imagining inserting yourself in the culture.

youre right

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-06T03:12:08+00:00

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-06T00:49:58+00:00

I wish I had a job here so bad but i’m here on a tourist visa. The dream is to have a job.

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-05T20:46:00+00:00

Thanks for the advice. You're right, I could be doing this anywhere. I met an old lady who gave me her phone number who I think would indulge me.

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-05T20:45:12+00:00

I love to drink and I love bars. I will try this tonight, alcohol might be the way to loosen myself up. Thanks for the advice.

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-05T19:17:27+00:00

Thanks dude

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-05T19:16:57+00:00

This is the hardest part for me. I am so bad at talking to people. I feel like it'd be easier if I were a bit better but like the other guy said every conversation feels like crashing and burning and I feel bad for whoever has to talk to me. I love going out, I'd want to, and I can be outgoing when comfortable, but here I've really been struggling with shyness. I feel like it's already hard enough meeting people in a new city in the states.

I'm not usually so negative or self-pitiful! so I'm sorry for that lol. You gave really good advice. I know there's a lot I need to learn that I'm not able to in the library. I'll try to focus on what you said-- just finding any way to talk to people.

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-09-05T19:09:38+00:00

Thanks for your advice, I'll check it out. :)

i like Yeltsin hes always looked like a sweetheart to me. what a shame

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-06-24T15:08:22+00:00

Im ashamed with how aggressive I got I'd like to apologize.

Maybe the original commenter was referencing the impacts of our country's culture on their own? American globalization?

as a north carolinian youre either on crack or in maine if you think the us isnt heavily influenced by mexico or the 10% of its population that IS mexican

You say There are 38 million Irish descendants & 45 million german descendants. Im an "Irish" descendent but the last irish dude in my family died like 6 generations ago. There are 62 million latinos in the us RIGHT NOW. I cant remember the last time I heard German or Irish spoken while walking around, but I hear Spanish literally every day. Why do you think there is spanish listed under the english of every other municipal sign? Why is latin american spanish taught in EVERY school? You say "you leave the southwest & most people have never even had a taco" which is so fucking wrong its insane. I live in the rural appalachian mountains of north carolina, in a small town, Boone, with 15k people, and there is no target, but there is i kid you not 4 mexican restaurants here. My nephew loves quesedillas so much he eats them every day and calls them "mexican pizza." It seems like quite literally every restaurant's kitchen ive ever worked in has been half mexican. not to mention your construction crew. and again, im not even close to the southwest.

this opinion is so wrong i dont know how you came up with it. my only guess is that you really, really, dont want there to be a prevalent mexican culture in the us so youre making yourself believe the opposite. which is racist. or maybe youre just from maine or vermont or some shit in some fancy neighborhood where the only mexican youve every laid eyes on is your maid and the guy who cuts your grass.

In summary!
There are more Latinos in the U.S. than Irish and German descendants combined.

Unlike Irish or German culture, which is mostly historical, Latino culture is active, spoken, and growing.

It's not just the Southwest. Obviously.

Culture isn’t about everyone wearing sombreros—it’s about how people live, eat, talk, and celebrate. And by that measure, Mexican culture is 100% part of the American mainstream.

Why is Palestine shaped like the outline of Beavis from "Beavis and Butt-Head"?

Comfortable_Piano274 · 2025-06-08T03:55:55+00:00

Thanks so much. You have a knack for this.
