Welcome to Vol. 2 of the Poducateme Online Newsletter! Weekly Spanish lessons with audio links, as well as travel phrases and more. Thanks again for signing up for the newsletter - I hope you enjoy this week's lesson. Lesson of the Week:Intro to Verbs In Spanish, there are 3 types of verbs—the root,+ AR, ER, or IR(for “hablar” the root is HABL +AR). This makes up the infinitive or base verb, which you later change to indicate who is doing the action and when.In English infinitives have the word “to” in front of them. These infinitives don’t specify who is doing the action—that’s what conjugation is for. Look at the following infinitives: AR ER IR hablar to speak ver to see vivir to live bailar to dance correr to run asistir to attend formar to form leer to read insistir to insist cantar to sing beber to drink escribir to write Travel Phrases of the Week HELPwords! no hablo español....................I don't speak Spanish noentiendo..............................I don't understand ¿habla inglés?.........................do you speak English? más despacio,por favor........slower please ¿me ayuda?.............................can you help me? necesito un médico.......... .....I need a doctor estoy perdido..........................

I think it is great. It is so easy to understand, I can go at the pace that is just right for me and review all I need to! I have confidence that on my next trip to Mexico, I will be able to converse a little without asking "Do you speak English?" first. Thanks for this terrific product! Perry House "Ask Maria " Section ----- Question Hola Maria, I just ordered the lessons thru the mail and am just into the free lessons on the computer. The question is probably rushing into this but over the years and lately I have noticed several punctuation mark are to me, upside down and at the front of some sentences. Why? Remember I'm a very very beginning beginner. I'm also looking forward to this. I'm 63 years and recently retired and decided to do something challenging. This will fill the bill I'm sure. Thanks, Deisy Answer Hola Deisy, Basically, the upside-down question mark at the first of a sentence lets you know that the sentence is a question before even starting to read it. Personally, I think we should do this in English. Have you ever been in a class where they read a play aloud and you got to the end of the sentence and realized it was a question and you read it like a statement? So...at the end you tried to adjust your voice to turn it into a question and it came out wrong? Unfortunately, I have. If we had upside-down question marks in English, like they do in Spanish, it would take care of this problem. Hopefully that answers your questions. Hasta luego, Maria Travel Spot of the Week
