    Inclusive Language is commonly used in the Spanish language to refer to those people of different genders, sometimes it is not necessary to mention every one of them, due to the abuse of the language is considered awkward, not nice at the moment to listen to somebody speaking, expression their ideas. Is it needed in the middle of the speech in the English language?

    Nowadays people have decided to speak their own way, given the fact of being natives or they ignore/do not know good enough info about their language, even non-native speakers are very efficient at learning and explaining another language they love, they take advantage of this to learn and comprehend more, also we natives prefer not pronouncing correctly things because we think we save time or we sound cool, but.. this is not good, this is not let's say healthy, we damage the language, of course, many people do not care about this, but... believe me guys, there's nothing better than a person who knows what he/she is saying, sounds great and also it works to train your brain, establish control. Let's talk about this and here you've got the exercise I told you about, please let me know your answers on my email address or on Anchor.fm as a voice message. ¡Estoy despertando! ¡Me estoy despertando! ¡Estoy despertándome!

    Is it possible learning Spanish or English from a non-native speaker? | 12

    Many people look for the best teacher/instructor to learn.. let's say efficiently or faster than the others, given the fact of time or because they want to show off their abilities and the way they're learning from a brilliant NATIVE speaker, but this is not everything, not the only option you have to learn, recently I've proved that learning from a non-native speaker is as efficient as with a native one! The only difference I found out is the experience they have being natives and their mother tongue is whether English or Spanish is about PRONUNCIATION! On the other hand, you can find interesting and qualified people to teach you from scratch or whatever you want to do with your target language. Let's talk about this...

    My personal opinion about TRANSLATION with E-TRANSLATORS! | 11

    It's well-known e-translators are pretty useful, nowadays many people use them because of saving time, and honestly, I do not know WTF they're doing with their remaining time, of course, it's understood not everyone has the chance to practice from scratch a new language like Spanish or English, to understand the root, structure, and grammar, but... let's be ourselves, we Spanish speakers want to look for a certain definition or translation using e-translators (Google one) and we get the wrong thing, we have bad translations, it's obvious something is happening but we do not care about it at first! That's why today I want to share with you the main causes of mistakes when using e-translators no matter which one you use! ☝

    This time I talk about the visible or audible difference between expresiones idiomáticas and jerga in the Spanish language, this topic is very confusing at the beginning given the fact of having many speakers around the world, let's say they are teaching and showing our Latin American culture to others wherever they are living in but they do not have the capacity to make people understand our language or expressions, expressions which do not mean anything significant or a clear message, it's well known we natives say these combinations almost every single time we speak, also in English it's well known that phrasal verbs express something singular, there are many of them, LOTS of them to be exact... but ... that's why I share this valuable info with you!

    Is Reggaeton the best genre / music to learn Spanish? | 9

    According to my personal experience, I've learned a lot from music, TV shows with captions at the beginning, then I started doing the same but risking, I mean removing captions and even with music I felt the lyrics became more understandable. But... REGGAETON? Of course many people on earth like this kind of music, even including myself, but we all know it's not educational or at least not the best to introduce you to the Spanish language, given the number of slangs that exist among lyrics, Slangs as I said previously are in most of the cases, words that do not exist, the combination of letters to express certain message but not true! The same happens with the English language, if you ask me about my secret to improve the level, there's nothing better than MUSIC! What are your favorite bands/music to practice and learn new languages?

    Many people around ask about Slangs, those words that do not exist, you can't translate them into English or other languages, even people got crazy when learning a new language, of course, there is a significant line between SLANG and idiomatic expressions. Idiomatic expressions come to say a message previously set up and they are used in certain regions also understood by the natives only! On the other hand, SLANGS express sometimes bad messages (words), ¡GROSERÍAS!

    If you try to translate any idea, sentence, or phrase from any of these two languages you might get the wrong definition/translation such as BLACK CAR / NEGRO CARRO. Maybe these platforms have been working on enhancing their services and of course, they understand currently your voice, but... NOTHING LIKE A GOOD NATIVE SPEAKER in front of you to help you with the subject! When you get the appropriate level at any of these languages you start playing with the language you are speaking, also you decide if adding or not a word, accent (stress) talking about Spanish, and skipping certain things that make it complicated at trying to communicate between us. I'm old school guy and I prefer and recommend my students and you all people form abroad to GRAP your dictionaries to look for any info, definition you want to know and start working with it once you found it, this way plus learning and understanding you record it in your head. ¡Piénsalo!

    The Spanish language is spoken in many countries of the world and at the same time, people wonder if this language is understood by other speakers such as Portuguese ones? So... according to my experience when learning to speak Portuguese also, I found out this, I proved it right, they do understand us speaking in Spanish, given the fact or relationship among other codes like Italian, French, and even Romanian. These people also share the same structure of the language to build phrases and sentences. When speaking about Spanish to English, maybe you cannot find the translation you want to have, because of the STRUCTURE of both of them! Looking forward to talking to you about SLANGS!
