Early morning note taking while at work.

What's everyone learning?

[joy-is-what-it-means]

Casually going on about my day when I realized I am:

Listening to a podcast in Arabic while reading resources in English for a literary analysis in Spanish!

What a privilege it is to navigate through different forms of knowledge with barely any language barriers.

these methods are what are helping me the most to learn spanish:

1. Label Your Household Items: Place labels with Spanish names on objects around your home. This constant exposure helps reinforce vocabulary in a practical context.

2. Create a “Spanish Only” Zone: Designate a specific area or time each day where you only use Spanish. This could be a room or a period during which you read, watch TV, or speak only in Spanish.

3. Use a Spaced Repetition System (SRS) for Vocabulary: Instead of traditional flashcards, use an SRS app to review words and phrases at increasing intervals. This method helps improve long-term retention of vocabulary.

4. Write a Diary in Spanish: Keep a daily journal in Spanish. This practice helps you think in the language and improve writing skills while reflecting on your day.

5. Sing Along with Spanish Music: Choose songs in Spanish and sing along, paying attention to the lyrics. This helps with pronunciation, rhythm, and understanding colloquial expressions.

6. Learn Through Role-Playing: Act out scenarios in Spanish, such as ordering food in a restaurant or asking for directions. This method helps you practice practical language use in a fun and interactive way.

Important: Methods can change depending on what works for you, so try everything you can. Methods can also turn out to be less effective as you gain more knowledge.

obs: Spanish is my priority right now because I’m no longer learning it as a hobby but as a necessity. You are free to correct me.

thank you for the tags @firstprincehornyramblings & @thighzp <3

sharing something a little different today. i've wanted to translate one of my shorter fics into spanish forEVER but always get stuck and give up. but i'm feeling inspired by @jocarthage's arabic and english drabble so i decided to give it a shot.

who knows how long it will take me to finish but here's a bit of baby, it's alright, my nora's pov of caulfield fic, en español

Ella sueña. No hay nada por ella aquí, entonces ella duerme, y piensa en las cosas buenas una y otra vez para que no las olvide. Oasis, antes de Jones. Los árboles, las flores, el cielo. Tripp, cuando no se duele demasiado pensar en su cara. Louise, segura y feliz, sonriendo y bailando con Roy. Walt, su cara dulce y sus abrazos cariñosos. A veces ella se pregunta dónde está Walt ahora. Ella piensa en él feliz y saludable con una familia que le ama. Sonriendo en el campo de las girasoles. Bailando cerca de la mesa.

hey how would you do a translation of 'greenbrown' (in reference to a tree trunk) for a short story? i wanted to say something along the lines of tan verde como marrón (as green as brown?) but i was told to use marrón verdoso instead

In my experience, it's usually either verde marrón or marrón verdoso/a

This is going to require a bit of specific grammar that isn't usually taught so bear with me

-

With colors there are certain adjectives that imply an "-ish" quality to it

As an example:

rojizo/a = reddish [in hair contexts, rojizo/a can be used for "auburn"]

anaranjado/a = orange-y

amarillento/a = yellowy

verdoso/a = greenish

azulado/a = bluish

purpurino/a = purplish [also sometimes purpuréo/a]

rosado/a = pink, pinkish

grisáceo/a = grayish

blancuzco/a, blanquecino/a = whitish, off-white [often blanquecino/a will be like "milky white" etc but same general idea of related to blanco/a]

negruzco/a = blackish

You don't necessarily need to know all these words. There are ways around it, like saying verde que tira a marrón "green that veers a bit towards brown", or entre verde y marrón or un verde casi marrón etc

Another safe way is con tonos de marrón y verde

...

Anyway, the issue here is that marrón "brown" doesn't change for anything, it's almost like a noun [because it came from French's word for chestnut]

When you deal with trying to make an adjective out of a noun, the word doesn't change

It's why rosa and naranja for "pink" and "orange" don't change - because they are adjectives that came from nouns "rose" and "orange" [the fruit]

To make them specifically more like adjectives they get rosado/a and anaranjado/a which you see in Spanish 1 vocab because they want you to know how to use gendered adjectives (and because noun-adjectives require more grammar that would be confusing)

marrón, rosa, naranja, lila "light purple", and a few others work like this - you have castaño which is "brown" but literally "chestnut" and very common for hair and eye color, caoba "mahogany" or "auburn", azabache "jet black" [from "bird of paradise"] or márfil "ivory", ébano "ebony", carmesí "crimson", turquesa "turquoise", and the colors that come from gems like aguamarina "aquamarine", rubí "ruby", zafiro "sapphire", esmeralda "emerald" etc

There's also café "coffee" for "brown", like sometimes color café as "coffee-colored"

In general if you aren't sure how to make a color you can say color first then add it - color agua "the color of water", color bambú "bamboo-colored", color fresa "strawberry-colored"

...

Regardless, in general if you make an adjective out of a noun it changes for plural but not usually for gender; like los zapatos rosas "pink shoes"

This is also how a lot of things will describe hair colors; rubio/a fresa "strawberry blond", rubio/a ceniza "ashy blond", el cabello zanahoria which is like "carrot-colored hair" etc.

Most common and pertinent for this is marrón "brown" can be marrones but will never turn feminine

Since it is counted as a noun and unchanging, there are then two ways to do it... verde marrón where the noun part isn't changing but to me it reads like "brownish green"

Or you say marrón verdoso which is maybe more common as "greenish brown"
