Bilingual?

So who here speaks more than one language? I'm not fluent yet, but I'm currently learning Latin and Spanish. I know enough Spanish that I could get by until I found someone who spoke English if I was stranded in a Spanish speaking country. Latin is a little more difficult. But I'll end this with a not to see who knows what it means:

Carpe noctem!

I am bilingual. I spent a couple of years living in Latin America in my younger days when I was somewhat less....oh how should I say this? Well, let's just say there was a time in my life that I did not do so well thinking things through...on the plus side, I have two great kids and speak Spanish fluently as a result...

I wouldn't say I'm fluent in Japanese, but I could probably carry on a (rather stilted) conversation if I had to. Unless the other person talked too fast and used too much slang, then forget about it. :lol:

I know lots of Spanish and took 2 years of Chinese (Mandarin). THAT is a hard language. I'm self-teaching myself German - which is pretty fun :-) and I was learning Russian...but really only remember things like "What?" "Excuse me" "How are you?"...simple stuff. I'm afraid my accent in all the languages is bad. :-)

When I married my wife 19 years ago, I spoke no Spanish nor her any English -_-

She now can read and write English fluently :)

I have only learned enough Spanish to get by :blush:

      Yesterday in the lobby some of the residents were talking with me. One asked, "how come in all the TV commercials at the centre you don't appear in any of them?"   I explained that, "I'm an embarrassment to the centre and they don't know what to do with me." I get edited out!   Quite the differing options with the ladies at the table as some of them said, "that's discrimination", while others said, "they can see why."   Another lady said, "you would fair better if you cut your hair and went back to overalls, you should strive to fit in!"   Their opinions are as meaningful to me as rubbish. I did 45 years of trying to "fit in", and not doing that again. 😉

      Gosh, missed Monday again.   Did you know that Producer Keith Oslen was distraught because the duo his recorded Buckingham-Nicks first album went nowhere? In walked Mick Fleetwood also distraught because once again Flleetwood Mac lost a guitarist in Bob Welsh and he was at least going studio shopping and came to Sound City in LA because he'd heard the drum sound they got there was incredible. He asked Oslen to play something recorded there. Olsen played some of Buckingham-Nicks and Fleetwood loved the sound of the guitarist and wanted Buckingham. Olsen said he comes with Nicks because Olsen managed both. Fleetwood didn't want Nicks but eventually the remaining Mac members said okay and next thing you know - the Fleetwood Mac that scored a huge following was born. Sadly right after the "Fleetwood Mac" album and before "rumours" was recorded, the band got huge headed and got rid of Oslen so they didn't have to play him a lot of music they wanted to keep. Olsen did ok after by recording Ozzy Osbourne, the Grateful Dead, Whitesnake, Pat Benatar, Heart, Santana, Saga, Foreigner, Scorpions, Journey, The Babys, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Joe Walsh, 38 Special, and Eric Burdon & the Animals, among others. BTW - Olsen was also a members in 1967 of a band called Music Machine (not the James Taylor one) that scored a huge hit with the song "Talk Talk"

      Still on contentment high from Sunday.
    • Heather Shay
      CONTENTMENT The relentless pursuit of happiness often overshadows the more subtle yet profound emotional state of contentment. While happiness may be a fleeting high, contentment is the gentle hum of satisfaction that resonates through the soul, offering a sustainable path to life satisfaction. Oscar Wilde's poignant observation encapsulates this truth: "True contentment is not having everything, but in being satisfied with everything you have."

      I've been looking forward to the legitimate medical groups coming out strongly against Cass' biased and one sided report, so I'm really glad to see the article you posted, @Davie.  Unfortunately, it won't get nearly the coverage that Cass has gotten.  She has done her dirty work.  Hopefully the pushback and investigative reports on her and her support network will result in her work being shown for what it is.  She is a fraud, and sooner or later all frauds are found out.   Carolyn Marie
