hey! grammar nazis!

Nice work!
Do you diagram sentences in your spare time? You got 10/10 correct.


Guess it's the 'New English' that has effectively destroyed modern grammar. At least we, in the USA don't put useless vowels in the middle of our words, though, eh ris? :grinyes:

Prefiero español, pero francés es una lengua muy bonita también.

.. though I don´t what the "I" is doing there.

I would use the familiar (which doesn't exist in latin american spanish):

Mi corazón deslumbra cuando me mirate
tus ojos le enlighten
tus pechos son maravillosos a ver
tú es una señora muy bonita

Muchas Gracias mi vida!
 
De nada. :D

I don't profess to be an expert so I'm sure Luis could come up with something else... :lol:

I have until 19 April to improve my spoken spanish... so if anyone sees me speaking spanish to myself i'm not mad... :eek:

And I have 3 more exams in listening, reading and writing in May, but I can mix and match the levels, so I'll probably take the higher levels in listening and reading and lower in spoken... I'm not sure about written yet.

Mi corazón se deslumbra cuando te miro
tus ojos lo iluminan
tus pechos son maravillosos a la vista
tú eres una señora muy bonita.

However, for poetry it is better to use the respectful you:
Mi corazón se deslumbra cuando la miro
sus ojos lo iluminan
sus pechos son maravillosos a la vista
usted es una señora muy bonita.
 
10. If I'd have scored any less, then the "A" in my copy editing course would have been a sham.
