in the beginning...

...i knew no spanish. 

i have tried various techniques and (paid for) learning packs but i always seemed to get so far then hit a brick wall. as it stands, i still can't think in spanish (yet) but i have a good knowledge of the language so i look for your input as well as your attention through this blog.

as a blog, i am not going to discuss pronounciation. michel thomas made a big thing of this which is ok but he didn't take into account regional dialects in english or spanish. anytime i refer to a pronounciation, it is based on how someone from merseyside would say it (because thats where i am from :) )

so, lets begin.
