We already have a thread for this one. I just bumped it for you.

your thread is different. You want to know how many languages and where people are from...in this thread the OP is saying to write in a different language, not to identify it.

So I can write in Swahili and not tell you that's what it is... lol. Smiling

OK cool. Here's what I'd fix from your original message: hola! (A) nosotros (nos) encanta el (programa) kyle xy! me (you got them switched...it should be gusta mucho...o because Matt is male...a is for female) mucha gusta (el actor...although not necessary, it does make it more defined) matt dallas tambien. (It would be better if you said, Me encanta jugar deportes because the way you wrote it sounds weird. I know in english it's play sports, but in Spanish juego usually refers to one type of game ie. yo juego basketball...yo juego futbol. etc....so that's why jugar could go for multiple games...did that make sense? ) yo juego los deportes porque son muy (again, deportes is male so it should be divertidos) divertidas. me gusta ver la telivision y peliculas. yo vivo en los estados unidos... como estas? (here's where it gets tricky. Depending on dialect, the como estas could be too informal. For example, I wouldn't use it on an elder (or someone older than me) or someone I didn't know. In those cases I use the usted version, como esta? or better, como esta usted? depending on the amount of respect that person deserves...ie. an older person that I do know vs. someone I don't know at all or is an elder...doesn't matter if I know them or not. However, in Mexico they use it all the time and it's fine for everyone.) I'm not sure which Spanish you're learning so I can only guide you this way. In Spain (and also in my dialect) there is an extra one...the vosotros term. Used (in our dialect) for someone you know super well, ie best bud, siblings, close cousins, etc. I'm not sure how they use it in Spain but it could be the same. There you say como vas? or como vas vos? The vosotros term is tricky so I don't want to confuse you too much so ignore me if you aren't learning Castillian or Salvadoran Spanish. (most likely you aren't learning the latter...most likely you are learning Mexican Spanish...so just be aware that there are differences in dialect. You can still communicate fine, but if you get funny look, or a confused one, you could be speaking to someone from a different country than the Spanish you are learning.)

Did that help you or did I twist you more? I hope not... :S (worried smiley)

thank you, and no that did help me. =D
pretty sure i'm learning mexican spanish, although my teacher speaks castillian... and we know of the vosotros term, but we don't really use it...

and what about que pasa? is that okay to use just in general, not to a teacher or someone i want to speak to formally?
