There are a few verbs I have trouble with in the present tense. I need to practice the conjugations daily for a while. Can I do this easily with word amigo?
The common ones you did in early lessons, and the irregulars from 44-49 yes. Name some
The verbs listed in lesson 44-49 include all the ones I still have problems with. I’ll repeat these lessons and i should be able to isolate any I really have trouble with. Thanks for being so attentive.
If you look in WordAmigo you will find 25 of the 26 verbs in present tense, separated into Yo, Tu, El, Nos.Vos. Ellos – I practical terms Yo is most inportant obviously.
Thank you Robert for sorting the second set of verbs QQ how do I save the audio from email to enable me to listen to I heard James mention an app. But can’t seem to find on App Store Thanks again
The App he is talking about, which is really good is VLC
Excellent thanks for speedy response
What is the difference betwéen ‘antes de’ & ‘antes que ‘?
Hola! Nothing, they are interchangeable
Confused. It is “le” for to himself? The flashcard pronouns say “se”. Is se another one?
Hola! No, le is him or her, se is himself or herself. The full explanation is on lesson 50 of the core Lessons.
In the note for lesson 28
Le = to him/to her, in fourth group of the pronouns
Correct, and on 50 it is updated to full 8 pronoun version.on lesson 50 I specifically say that this now supersedes the list on 28. Le is him and se is himself.
Ok hahaha. I have to look at that than before I try to learn this haha
Yes, there have been three key points to the pronouns, lesson 28, lesson 50 and keywords where I explained about with me , with you = conmigo, contigo and the rest go back to : con el, con nosotros ect, same applies with para mi, para ti…
Hi James
Thank you for Word Amigo, this will help immensely going forward, but can I ask where the ‘send MP3 & PDF to e-mail’ button is as I can’t see it on my version.
Thanks
Hola!
Glad that you are enjoying!
When you are on the page to practice your pronunciation, where you have the microphone and the loudspeaker to see if you are pronouncing the words correctly, you will see in the top red menu it says “audio and pdf” you just press on that and it will send you the file.
It is up in the red section at the top in the menu.
Hi James
I can’t seem to find the verb list in Amigo
I downloaded 25 last week but can’t seem to find it now.i am finding it a good aid in learning great addition to the course
Thanks
Hola! They are under: language-first 100 verbs, glad that you are enjoying!!
Hi, I have downloaded my list of words to my PC and to my Samsung Galaxy S23 phone by email.
Works fine on the PC as I can choose what words to hear, speak and check my pronunciation.
This option does not work on the Phone, all it does it play the list from the beginning and no facility to record check pronunciation.
I was expecting to be able to select the words I want while out and about.
I was not expecting to have to have mobile data on all the time and be logged into my JS account to use this while out and about.
Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Hola!
Ok, you can test your pronunciation and hear the words being said on your phone, exactly the same as you can on your PC as long as you are logged into your account.
1-you do need to be connected to the Internet to test your pronunciation as the AI software needs Internet access.
2-I would strongly recommend not testing your pronunciation when you are out and about as you need to be in a quiet environment for it to hear if you are saying the words correctly.
So: if you are logged in on your phone, you have exactly the same choice on your phone as you do on your laptop, but again, you do need Internet access for it to work. When my children are in the room and I try to test my pronunciation it picks up them talking in the background and marks me as wrong so it is not a good idea if you are in a café, etc…..
Thanks for sorting this out stress free what a difference great back up makes
Now the hard part
I know, I’m amazing!
Thank you for getting this to me so quickly and efficiently. Its excellent
Have a try with some of the sentences Jim, under: Language – sentences, choose 25 and see how good your pronunciation is
Hi, I’ve searched language -sentences and nothing comes up. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
When you are in the system, the first list that is by default in front of you is: business -advertising, to the right you can press on the drop-down and then just scroll down until you find language, sentences.
I think you are using the search bar rather than activating the drop-down…
Yes I was. Thanks.
Im amazing!!
Hi, under butchers pollo leg is Muslo I thought muslo was thigh and pierna was leg , are these interchangeable.
Great addition to course
Hola! Yes , for chicken it is the same for the thigh and the whole leg….
