Even on Saturdays...

It's the weekend catch-up session again, and Jimena and David are both partaking in a spot of stalking...David is in Mendoza spying on his mother with the Tango instructor, and Jimena is following her boyfriend because she is convinced he is cheating on her. Unfortunate, but let´s be honest, all these gorgeous Argentine men allegedly cheat- before I came here I was warned that it's a given (and it turns out he is probaly not even cheating, she's just a really bad cook!)

Ah dear, i'm sure there are no such exciting dramas on 'learn Spanish' programmes such as RosettaStone.

So as usual the Saturday catch lesson has been a games session. ´Veo Veo´ is the Spanish version of ´I Spy´ and is useful to recap. The games this week have covered place descriptions and well as grammar and comparisons, and are a really good way to reiterate the lessons learnt throughout the week. ´Corregi a la Profe´ goes down particularly well with David (Correct the Teacher!) and is used to practice the correct useage of ´por´ and ´para´- i´m still not impressed that there is a time for ´for´and a time for ´for!

And while i´m on one of my favourite rant and rave subjects (the complicated nature of Espanol) today´s little lesson in complication was the fact that that word ´banco´not only describes a bank, but also a bench. So be careful where you deposit your money!

Now i´m going out, becasue I should not be aldentro, on the computer, on a lovely day like this!
