Would it be possible to create a Spanish section or is that not in demand currently?

[Black]

I would like to be able to improve my spanish...I've gotten pretty bad at it

I can help you with that. If I can only figure out how to type with the fucking accents and tildas. Spanish is my best subject so if you want some help I can definitely help youw with that. ^^

The tidals? That's why I love the Norwegian keyboard setup, it's so flexible, every latin-lether language can be written on it. :D

But yea;
Windows XP:
Start > Control Panel > Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options > Regional and Language Options.
In the Languages tab, click on the Details button.
In the Settings tab, click Add... and look for your language!

And that's it. I suppose. Atleast that's what I had to do. Oh and to change the keyboard layout, click on the nice and friendly box at the bottm right of your start bar. It should say NO if you live in Noreay, AU if you're uin Australia, JP in Japan, EL in greece... Well you get the drill. It's US on your computer. Click on that, and pick Spanish. :)

To have a look on how the keys actually are placed, which is confusing to begin with;
Go to your Start menue, click Accessories, click Accessibility, then chose the On-Screen Keyboard.
It can be quite handy when you write foregin languages, especially the likes of Greek and Russian. Well for me atleast, since I've got all the romance languages covered on my Norwegian one. :D But it's also handy for Croatian languages, and Scandinavian ones for you people who have a different keyboard layout.

This could perhaps be something to check out for Sandra aswell, to write in Danish without using ugly 'aa' 'ae' and such.

As for making a new section about Spanish... sure! :D Well start it out in here and I'll check about it.

Oooh YAY That helps me out so much! Now I can do my Spanish homework on the computer! Thanks!

Omfg I can{t type like normal now but that{s alright I guess.

So Black,

¿Como estas? Estoy bien. ¿Que sabes hablar de?

Translation: How are you? I'm fine. What do you think we should talk about?

***Do you want help with conjugations and stuff or just conversing in general?***

[Black]

lol..I have made it to year two classes but haven't been in the class for the last two years that's all..so I don't care, your choice.

I have found out how to that awhile ago, kind sir!

Alt + 0229 = å
Alt + 0230 = æ
Alt + 0248 = ø

Pero, que sabes? Necesito saber que tipos de vocabulario si digo tu mas.

Translation:

But what do you know? I need to know what kinds of vocab before I can tell you anything more.

oh..sorry..um, I'd like to know how to apply for jobs in spanish really because there is a spanish store a few blocks away who are hiring but I don't know how to ask for an application, and information like that. And I also need to know the way to say different items that are in your average shopping store like fruits and vegetables.

[EMO{tional}]

Alright...This I can definitely do. (***I'm too lazy and I forgot how to get my computer over to Spanish, so there'll be no upside-down question marks and such. Sorry!***)

Basic Conjugation of verbs:
In order to conjugate a verb you must get the stem, for example:

1. Start with the stem: Mirar- To Watch
2. Drop the ending: Mir (<---Stem)
3. Add the new ending: Miro (I watch)

*** Verbs that end in ~ar:
Ejemplo: Hablar: To Talk/Speak
Yo- Hablo (o) Nosotros- Hablamos (amos)
Tu- Hablas (as) Vosotros- Hableis (eis)
El, Ellos,
Ella, Ellas,
Usted- Habla (a) Ustedes- Hablan (an)
*** Verbs that end in ~er or ~ir:
Ejemplo: Correr: To Run
Yo- Corro (o) Nosotros- Corremos (emos)
Tu- Corres (es) Vosotros- Correis (eis)
El, Ellos,
Ella, Ellas,
Usted- Corre (e) Ustedes- Corren (en)

***yo= I, tu= you, el= he, ella= she, usted= you (formal), nosotros= we, vosotros (only used in Spain)= You(group of people), Ellos= Group of guys or guys/girls, Ellas= Group of girls (only), Ustedes= You (formal,plural)***

How to ask for an application:
~"Puedo tener un application, por favor?" - "Can I have an application, please?"
~"Me gusto este lugar y me gusto la idea de trabajome aqui."- "I like this place and I like the idea of working here."
~"Puedo hablar con tu administrador, por favor?"- "Can I speak with your administrator, please?"
~"Que abiertos posiciones tu tienes?" - "What open positions do you have?"
