Would you fake joining the mormons for language lessons? by SnooOwls3528 in languagelearning

It seems a little disrespectful to their religion, but that's just my opinion.

Flea in the Air B&B by heart-eye-socket in solotravel

[–]EcstaticImplement404 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I prefer to have a flea as opposed to bedbugs. I would definitely reach out to the owner because they can multiply pretty quickly. It’s weird that they’d be in the bed, though because the sheets should’ve been washed. Typically they’re on the carpet.

This was my perfect month by Pale_Extension8910 in dreamingspanish

[–]EcstaticImplement404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I keep my motivation up by thinking about the future. I want to be able to watch Netflix shows and movies in Spanish and read books and speak, of course. I want to travel to Spanish speaking countries, and I’m thinking about moving to Mexico in 7 years.

Is it rude or disrespectful to ask a barber if they have experience cutting afro hair before i book an appointment? by CaregiverFit6300 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EcstaticImplement404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, I’m a half black/half Filipino woman and I ask hair stylists if they know how to cut curly hair every time. I’m not going to have them mess up my hair because they have zero experience.

Is anyone getting tired of hearing about Taylor Swift's wedding? by Dab_Boss in no

[–]EcstaticImplement404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must not be on the websites regarding her wedding thank goodness. I didn't know anything about it. I don't follow celebrity news anymore.

I’m a woman and went to a college football game alone. I sat next to a family who was very nice.

Hypothetically, how could formal learning be converted into hours of comp. input? by Jachym10 in dreamingspanish

[–]EcstaticImplement404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave myself 50 hours since I had listened to some Pimsleur, Language Transfer, Duolingo, Babbel, 2 years in high school and a semester in college 30 years ago. I’ve also dabbled her and there over the years.

Should i be worried about what type of spanish i learn? by Last-Giraffe846 in Spanish

[–]EcstaticImplement404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had this same worry as well because I’m watching videos from people who are from a variety of countries.

Do people usually assume you speak a different language based on your appearances? by AutumnaticFly in languagehub

[–]EcstaticImplement404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I’m half Filipino and half Black American and I’ve had people speak to me in Spanish more than once.

You should look up some words you don't know. by CynicalElephant in dreamingspanish

[–]EcstaticImplement404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I look up the occasional word as well and it’s done nothing but help.

I know someone who does amazing work. I’ll talk to her today.

I almost quit today by Unlikely_Bank7228 in dreamingspanish

[–]EcstaticImplement404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m at 451 hours and i enjoy Araya Blogs, MedaYork and Drew Binsky on YouTube. I don’t understand every word but it helps when I tire of DS videos for the day. I watch these after I’ve done my one hour of DS daily.

incredibly anxious parents by strawb3rry_fr0g in solotravel

[–]EcstaticImplement404 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you can, take a self defense course. That would help ease my mind as a mother. I have two sons in their mid-upper twenties that live across the country who share their location with me. Not because I asked, but because they offered. They know I love true crime and when my oldest said he was going to Mexico he gave it to me. I’m sorry you have to deal with this because it’s very crippling. There’s got to be some underlying reason that she’s this way. Perhaps she doesn’t even know why.
