steve2112 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Hola! i'm planning a big motorcycle adventure to Mexico and beyond and i'm learning Spanish right now.

tolsti Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I am sure that there are many Spanish speaking people on South Island. However, as this is a Thailand based forum as opposed to a New Zealand forum you may wish to post over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the OP was talking about the south end of phuket island ... so very Phuket Forum related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somtamnication Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I speak it fluently and teach it. But swimming to South Island for every lesson is a bit too much. Planes have not yet been invented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schlog Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Watchin Narcos serie you will learn a lot. My spanish improved every season about 100%. Hearing my hijo de pxtx you think Pablo is still alive lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelepulse Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 As an alternative ( a paying one mind you) there are a lot of native speakers offering language lessons on skype. Might benefit you to learn the local slang and pronunciation of where you are going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narcos is really hard for me to understand but i found another show about Escobar on netflix that has Spanish closed captions, I've started watching that. i also use duolingo online which is free and fun to use.

Somtamnication Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Appointment set for tomorrow, Steve. Another one is El Chapo, another Netflix series. Brilliantly written and acted. This time it is Mexican Spanish, not Colombian Spanish as in the Escobar Netflix. Mexican castillan is hard to understand as they speak their own screwed up slangs. Super difficult for native speakers to understand them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
