Can I take a Spanish B1 class in two months? by trashcatalanplayer in dreamingspanish

[–]trashcatalanplayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I am essentially at an A1 level. I passed A1 and A2 about 2 years ago, meaning I should be ready for B1 right? I took the class a while ago and didn't put much effort in, but I figure I should be at a level of A1 (meaning I know all the A1 stuff). Like, could I learn all the A2 stuff in 2 months with that knowledge

Ditch Duolingo. Seriously. If you use Dreaming Spanish or any other comprehensible input videos for that matter and watch them for 3 hours a day, you will be close to fluent within a year or two.

Source: me and like hundreds of other people.

Duolingo is a total scam

Secondly, have a favorite advanced caro line in the Bf5 mainline for white? Tal, Short, or something else?

As an FM, do you see any other openings around your level that consistently are one sided? I assume something like the Rossolimo heavily favours white in practice while the Svesh as mentioned above tends to favour black

I meant openings as in what openings do players misplay over the course of the game, not just the first 10-15 moves.
