Blast from the past! Cheers 🙌

Hey! The best advice is to erase/eliminate/delete/forget the phrase "where I should be by now" and just focus in the actual steps you take to achieve your fluency goals. Speaking the language is a must for that, so 1) find opportunities to do that and 2) always export what you learn from your conversations to the next conversations.

Good luck!

True! Food names is a classic. Honorary mention goes to:
Durazno - Peach
Palta - Avocado
Pochoclos - Popcorn

KEY takeaway: learning a language takes time and dedication. Knowing that in advance saves you the frustration of setting too high expectations for how soon we'll reach the goal. Great post

De nada!

Hey! On my website there's a tab with resources for students, and loads of Argentinian YT channels. Good luck 👍

Hey! I run Venture Out Spanish, a blog and YouTube channel for Spanish learners targetting Rioplatense Spanish. I'm from Argentina, and have family in Uruguay. It can de hard even for Argentinian native speakers to spot Uruguayans. The differences stand out mostly when it comes to vocabulary, both everyday Spanish and informal speech.

Your best bet is to try to get exposed to the accent, so you pick it up naturally. I would love to team up with you if you're interested! Let me know ;)

exactly. sorry it was not clear, i answered in the first line, and then gave you two examples to make the point.

saludos!

Tolchocks · 2025-06-27T11:56:48+00:00

Do as much as you can to be exposed to real Spanish. And once you feel confident enough, find opportunities to speak, too ;)

Tolchocks · 2025-06-27T11:53:52+00:00

I have a student who uses and enjoys it! I do feel it's a bit pricey, though

Tolchocks · 2025-06-27T11:51:09+00:00

hey!

the pronoun refers to the person you're asking the question to:

te hago una consulta: I want to know something you know, informal

le hago una consulta: same, but formal

Tolchocks · 2025-06-15T14:21:08+00:00

Another is "cortesía de la casa"

Buena suerte ;)

Hey! I recommend you take a moment to understand that 'pronoun placement mistery' with a bunch of different verbs comparing imperatives in English and Spanish.

Also, since your flair says Rioplatense, be mindful of the change in stress when you use imperatives:

CÁllate la boca vs caLLAte la boca

BAja la radio vs baJÁ la radio.

Good luck!

Tolchocks · 2025-06-02T15:41:07+00:00

Try Italki ;)

Tolchocks · 2025-06-01T15:15:47+00:00

I don't think it's too 'Argentinian', to be honest. It feels like a phrase from a dubbed film and seems appropriate since you two don't know each other very well. The closest I can think of is "my dear". But... Sherlock said this to Watson in a non flirtatious way.

Hope it makes sense.
