I had the experience a few years ago returning from several months teaching in Portuguese in Mozambique and spending a few days on the return trip in Madrid. I was looking forward to being able to speak Spanish again, but the two languages were now hopelessly mingled in my mind. I tried to explain to the dona of the hotel why I was having trouble with pure Spanish and she said she could understand our mixed vocabulary, as she had grown up near the Portuguese border. When I tried to explain that we weren't really Portuguese, she insisted that we must be Brazilian. -- -Mark Wieder [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
