    Today I worked on articles in Spanish and made a quizlet for them
    http://quizlet.com/46875069/the-article-the-flash-cards/    Guess it will just take time
    to have it natural.   They say folks will understand you if you don't do it right.... leave them out in the  places where we put them in English and put them in where we don';t do it in English.

    found a practice test at  spanishdict about them....  Guess a good thing for me to do would be write some here in Spanish  and see if Carmen corrects them... lol 
    How I got started on this was in this course.   Blue and yellow are my favorite colors

    in Spanish becomes....
    El azul y el amarillo son mis colores favoritos.

    I'm really not used to the in front of the colors. 
    And I need to able to list the ways Spanish does not use them
    and the places where Spanish does and English does not...

    And I started on a set of Grammar Flash cards  by...  Vox  So far I like them.
    First bunch is about Capitalization  next articles    Guess I can make lists for those too!
    Different rules of course for that too!!!

    The quizlet has all (most) of "rules"  Starts with a spanish sentence and then gives English and then the rule      My Goal is find in the text books  I have examples of each rule.

    Hola, Gail:

    You´re attacking a difficult issue: los artículos.

    The examples that you´ve given so far are all correct. The ones in the quizzlet are very useful and clear.

    Muchas gracias,

    Carrmen.
