So, in my quest to be completely fluent in Spanish(even if it is against my will) I'm having to relearn a LOT of new vocabulary. It's different learning everything for a second time, but i discovered something new today besides my usual new vocab.
So, the lesson we're studying now is called "in the news" pretty useful, i know. But my new words include kidnapping, two words for thief, 3 words for a corpse, 3 works for saying "shots", 3 words for saying "to shoot", murder, wounded, 2 words for dead (not a body, just dead), to arrest, escape, to flee, 7 new words for different guns, 4 for knives, 3 words for assault, etc. You get the idea. There is one word that does not involve someone getting hurt, and that is "rescue team". Sooo, if this is all I have to look forward to in reading the news...i think I'll pass. My homework assignment is to find a news broadcast and present it in Spanish to the class. Well, after a long search, I found a news article in spanish that didn't involve anyone dying but I could still pronounce most of the words. I ended up learning a lot of new vocab in doing so.
By the way, the article is on illegal immigration. I'll be reading it to my Mexican teachers....im excited. :) hee hee.
