La gramática española es muy diferente de inglés. ¿Derecha?

Sí, muy diferente.

If only learning a language was as simple as typing something into a translator.

I hope none of you here attempt to use any of what is being said on this board in an actual Spanish class- because it is almost entirely incorrect. You cannot directly translate things from English to Spanish in a word-for-word fashion- their grammatical structure is that of a Romance language and is completely different from our own. I was raised in Italy and the USA - so I speak both equally. I am also fluent in Spanish and German. Communicating this way is not helpful if you have any hope of actually learning a language.

Translaters don't work well... I'm speaking High School french class. "Hello. My name is Maddie. I don't like school. It dosen't matter. Do you understand?"

Lol, I know translators aren't very acurate. I only use them for fun and really don't plan to learn anything.
