hello...
« on: October 18, 2006, 06:46:14 PM »

Hi everyone who reads this... well, what can I say about me? My name is Sylvia, but i rather be called Silvy... I love reading all kinds of literature... well, at least most of it... beside a geek, i'm also an artist, I paint in acrylic & oils... I live in Costa Rica... oh yeah, almost forgot, I'm proud of my geekness, there aren't much of us around this country...   :-)

Greetings

Can you please stop posting in green? It's really hard to read on the blue theme.

It is. Do not listen to her; she has some genetic mutation that renders her immune to your charm.

No offense to Cat. You're uber cool anyway.

Yeah; no matter where you go, there are different modes of speech...I guess what we call slang. I know that only in Spain and Costa Rica do you use "vosotros" and its form of verbs.

Known as dialects or regional vernacular, not slang.  Slang is more akin to jargon.

I wish that my high school Spanish teacher hadn't been such a psychotic freak. I can read bits and pieces of it to this day, maybe enough to get by, but I can't keep up when it's spoken. It's a beautiful language.

Oh, yes and welcome, Silvy.  :-)
