Jamesito´s Spanish Corner

Hi everyone,

Most of you now know me as I post a lot on the forums here. After talking with senior´s and moderators, We have decided to open a few off topic threads that are desinged to help people with language learning. Here at GMC we have a wide variety of differant nationalities, languages and cultures. So within this forum, I will be giving advice on practical spanish in everyday life, translation queries, how to integrate effectively with spaniards and latin americans, living in Spain or Latin America and many other issues around this topic.

I would be happy to take any questions about your Spanish, the great thing here at GMC is we have a lot of Spanish speaking members aswell, so they can correct me aswell lol!!!! yeah right!. Learning a language is like learning to play guitar, there are many similarities, practice indeed makes perfect . I have been only learning for 5 years but I have had the privilege of having excellent friends in South America and Spain! Having lived in Spain and I am currently living in Ecuador, learning is a lot easier.

With all that being said, any queries or worries with your grammer, transaltions or anything you can think of, don´t hesitate to make a post!!!!

Hope to speak to you all soon,

Jamesito - Spanish God LOL yeah right...

Blues Pedal

Hey guys,

I just finished reading Ivan´s review for the marshall blues pedal which was really informative! I have been looking for a Blues pedal for a while but I can´t seem to make the commitment to buying one, I have been looking at the DigiTech Screamin Blues pedal which sells on ebay for about 28 pounds including delviery. The reviews I have seen on the internet have been positive but before making a purchase I would like to know if anyone here has that same pedal or has experience in using it or maybe somebody can reccomend a good blues pedal. It would be used with a Marshall MG30 DFX which has good overdrive anyway but I feel the pedal would give my playing better tone control.

Hello And Hola To Everyone!

Hey everyone on GMC,

I decided to make a new post here as the other one was only initially in Spanish and some of you could not understand... sorry so im saying Hello again hehe, I guess English has got to be the language to connect all of us together. Well what can i say about myself, Im 21 i live in Guayaquil, Ecaudor but im from the UK orginally, near Leeds. I have been playing guitar for about 3 years on and off... I never took a real intrest in it until i saw Kris doing some cool metal licks on an advert, awesome...

bought my first electric guitar... which is a Epiphone Les Paul Studio which i have customized with EMG H3´s and some decal. I still need to upload some fotos... I´m using a MArshall MG30 DFX amp which does the job i guess. Well hope to get to know all of you soon. Hasta luego!

Heroes Del Silencio!

Hola Grabriel!

Que onda? Hoy estaba practicando tu clase de Thrash Metal hoy y bueno me inspiró practicar más el estilo! Uno de mis grupos favoritos es heroes del silencio, un grupo de zaragoza en España y bueno son bastante conocidos allí en españa y America latina... Me parecería una excelente idea hacer una clase en el estilo de ellos... a ver si alguien más tiene interés en eso... que piensas tu? (ya voy a decir lo mismo en inglés para que todos entiendan...) jeje

What´s up? I was practicing your thrash metal class today and it inspired me to practice the metal style more! One of my favorite groups is Heroes del silencio, a group from Zaragoza in Spain, they are well know in Spain and Latin america... I think it would be an excellent idea to make a lesson in their style... we will see if anyone else is intrested in that i guess... What do you think?

Para Los Hispanicos!

Holas a toditos!

He notado que tenemos tantos miembros que hablan español pero nadie piensa hacer un grupo virtual o compartir nuestras ideas. Obviamente todos aqui tocamos la guitarra... hay de todos niveles creo, yo recien comienzo en aprender la guitarra electrica después de tocar la acoustica x 3 años y bueno con GMC he mejorado bastante... pero todavia soy del nivel basico jeje.

Me imagino que para unos de ustedes es dificil expresarse bien aqui, como se habla inglés en todos los foros y pocas personas basan una conversación solamente en español, así... hemos de hacerlo no? Generalmente debemos de discutir nuestras posabilidades y esperanzas aqui... a ver si hacemos un grupo virtual o algo... además todos podemos beneficiarnos de la cantidad de culturas y ideas que existe en los paises latinos y españa.

Bueno ya he dicho basante, asi espero que alguien me conteste jajajaja! ahh no soy español y tampoco latino soy inglesito... asi que si hay errores, no piensen mal de mi! jajajajaja

(Kris- If you can´t understand I will teach you spanish if you can give us some more metal licks lessons lol PEACE and tell ivan to make some more blues licks aswell hahaha)
