So far, my best Spanish line is:

Quiero hacer el hombre que paga su renta.
(I want to be the man that pays your rent).

Seems to work well... at least with the working girls.



Tex, just FYI. One way of telling a girl you wanna phuck them is to say, "Te lo quiero hacer." It's a slang form of doing so, but they'll know exactly what you are saying.

OK, now when you say "Quiero hacer el hombre que paga su renta," you're actually saying you want to have sex with the guy that pays your rent.

It's " Quiero SER el hombre que paga tu renta," which means you want to BE the guy who pays your rent. It may have been a typo on your part, but trust me in terms of pronunciation, that -a- sound before "ser" makes a WORLD of a difference in that sentence when vocalizing it. Just FYI for you, so that you won't get funny looks when saying that to people.

Hacer= to make, create or do; a verb, action.

Ser- to be (ser can also be a noun, i.e., human being = ser humano)

Spanish is a beatiful thing, and it's interesting how a vowel sound added, subtracted, or switched around can change a sentence's meaning completely.

Take care,

Ruffnutz

The problem of practicing spanish with chicas is that they NEVER correct you. No matter how many times I ask them to please correct my spanish it just doesn't happen and trust me my spanish is malo!

Apologies to the admins, my old post from last May IS still there. I'm not sure why it didn't come out in my original search. However, I STILL think they should consider creating a non-postable but still searchable archive of old posts before they go ahead and do any file trimming. Heck, there are "only" 519 :shock: of my 780 some odd posts still left on the board. What is everyone else's thoughts on that subject? Anyway, here is the link for the post with my language school research results: http://www.costaricaticas.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2196&start=19 and the site that was one of my primary sources of comparative info http://www.123teachme.com

I took a 3 week course, 4 hours per day, during December '97, and by the end of it, I remembered all of the high school Spanish from the '60's that had disappeared, and spoke with a lot more confidence. My Spanish is not great, but it is good enough to make my time in CR much more enjoyable. It is nice to be able to talk to the ladies and to people outside of the gulch. The school is across from the Nicaraguan Embassy on Avenida Central, in Barrio California. I don't remember what it is called, but I thought they did well. I think I found it through an add in the Tico Times and stayed at the Scotland Appartments, which I found the same way. It may be the Cost Rica Language Academy mentioned above.
