Hello, guys!

It's been a while since I have posted anything here. Today, I am going to start next topic that I want to write about. I am currently in Mexico and my first language is Russian, my 2nd language is Ukrainian, because I am from Ukraine and English is my 3rd language. My English level is B2 (upper-intermediate). Because I spend most of my time in Mexico for the past three years I have decided that I have to pull myself together and get that done - learn at least some Spanish 👩🏻‍💻📚🏜

I am going to write posts like lessons which are basically my notes for learning Spanish and I want to share them with the community. You are welcome to join me in this journey. I can add some comments in Russian in brackets...

From my experience learning English the things which you can't avoid when you deal with foreign language are words, pronunciation and how to read. But words are crucial 🙂

1️⃣Let's learn some Spanish alphabet:
Aa (ah) Bb (beh) Cc (seh) Dd (deh) Ee (eh) Ff (eh-feh) Gg (Heh)

2️⃣Learn a few words:
a woman = una mujer, la mujer
a boy = un niño, el nino
a girl = una niña, la nina
a man = un hombre, el hombre
a book = un libro /leebrvroh/, el libro
a board = un tablero /tah-bvlah/, el tablero
a jacket = una chaqueta /chok-keh-tah/, la chaqueta
a laptop = una computadora portátil /kohm-poo-tah-doh-rah pohr-tah-teel/, la computadora portátil
big = grande
old = mayor /mah-yohr/
older than = mayor que /mah-yohr keh/
young = pequeño (male) /peh-keh-nyoh/, pequeña (female)
younger than = mas pequeno que, mas pequena que
but = mas
that, than = que

Some Grammar:
the (male) = el (singular), los (plural)
the (female) = la (singular), las (plural)
adjectives
=> female + '-a' at the end, e.g. young = pequena
=> male + '-o' at the end, e.g. young = pequeno
infinitives end in '-ar', '-er', '-ir'

👩‍🏫Let's sum up - today we've learned:
✅7 Spanish letters
✅15 Spanish words
