I know words, phrases, etc., but I would stop short of calling myself truly "conversational". Most of what I learned came from watching Spanish-language television many years ago.
I had studied French in school when I was much younger - in grades 5,7, 8 and 9. I think this made it easier to see the similarities in certain words common to both languages (and also, to some extent, in Italian). But, it was a long time ago.
Those were the days when Siempre en Domingo, Lucha Libre, Manuel "Loco" Valdez and - especially - Olga Breeskin and Iris Chacon reigned supreme (ahh...memories!).

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"
"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"
"It was a grass harp... And we listened."
"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"
"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."

puedo hablar espanol mas mejor que muchos de los pendejos como double jota,aqui. I believe it would be "Doble-Jota," or perhaps Dupla-Jota. BTW - Thanks for calling me an asshole. I love the notify button! Regards, Double-J Could you translate what dontomasso said?
See, we can act as smart as we want, but at the end of the day, we still follow a guy who fucks himself with kebab skewers.

Well, if he said " other assholes", it implies he regards himself as one too.

He essentially said that he "speaks Spanish better than the other assholes around here like Double-J."
You must consider adding another keyword to your signature  You're right! Hooray!

And yet, nothing has happened. Sorry, I forgot about that... dontomasso - cut the crap.
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

No offense, but Enzo got banned for calling me an asshole in another thread (and he meant it as a joke)...why not one in this case, where malicious intent was obvious? I was in a bad mood at that time, and was fed up and had to send a Sicilian message. Besides, if I banned everyone who thought you were an a-hole, there'd only be 3 people left here. (J/K!!  ) Anyway, he was warned... next time I will.
