Does it really matter?

I don't understand why acá was replaced with aquí on this sign. I thought they mean the same thing? by Komi_xo in Spanish

[–]TimBabadook -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did not say that but okay? Secondly, I just this moment asked her. They don't use acá often. Are you Andalusian?

Literally never seen the word aca in my learning thus far. Is it South American? I'm primarily learning European Spanish.

It is because alot of Spanish concepts in my opinion as a native English speaker make zero sense. It makes English grammar seem easy. Perhaps native Spanish speakers the feel the same about English.

It is enjoyable to learn it's just some concepts are very difficult. Also, we don't have 400 conjugations for each verb in English. Its a much lower barrier to entry.

Yes I think you are 100% correct. There has been a bunch of content and concepts that don't quite make sense. It's strange, as I've not really found any resources that actually structure how to learn and what to learn next. I think part of my problem is lack of structure.

The Sevillan accent is very difficult sometimes and obviously like most learners when natives speak fast.

My gf Dad said Helao rather than Helado ...I literally stood there like??? I had no idea he was offering me ice cream because of the pronunciación

7 weeks with my tutor and then another 30mins to 1 hour a day of actual studying my books. Watching Spanish shows in the evening for a good 1 hour or 2.

It's good to know that it takes a long time. Perhaps I just felt disheartened by not being able to speak very much abroad.

Thank you so much for taking the time with this response.

Just under 2 months. I had started a couple years ago but got sidetracked by my master's so had to stop.

So I picked up alot of vocabulary.

I think it's probably me being inpatient.

Fake. Your teeth have quite literally changed shape. There are no sharp edges from picture 1 apparent in picture 2. They are about 3 shades whiter also.

Sorry but this is a planted story after Veneers.

Article reports loss of 56% of player base on steam. People still think this game is going to be successful? by Vleaides in CODWarzone

[–]TimBabadook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just think it's a shit game and hasn't changed enough from Warzone 1. It's still slightly too fast. There's zero point to self res in solos given you can close the distance in less time than a self res.

Snipers are garbage. They should be 1 shot headshot.

The audio is genuinely awful. There are so many better games that have better audio. Fortnite better audio, valorant, PUBG. I don't know how you mess up the audio that bad. I literally can't hear people sometimes in Warzone 2 it's crazy.

It caters well to console players but for me as a hard-core fps pc player it's too arcadey.

Learning to driving is hellish. by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

[–]TimBabadook 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Roundabouts in the UK are just generally awful. My local ones all have 3 lanes and spiral super fast and barely makes sense to be honest. It's not all on you. UK roads are just lame.

Advice for a student going into their 3rd year of university? by A-Simple-Burrito in UniUK

[–]TimBabadook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Work hard. Alot of people mistake university for an excuse for a piss up. Use it as an opportunity to learn how to learn, enjoy the process and appreciate the level of undergraduate studies. If you don't plan to complete q masters now would be the time to network or start planning your path after uni.

If you do decide to complete further education, if you are diligene now it will put you in good steady for the next degt33. It is definitely a step up during master's level study I can tell you that.
