ENGLISH & THE SITY

Since I started Inthesity I always wanted to write the English version. As this is impossible, at least with my current knowledge of the Shakespeare’s mother tongue, I´m going to try a post every week, as a resume of the Spanish version. (Coment by the author: It was a good intention, but I failed. Anyway I keep trying)

I´m also going to translate 2 or 3 lines of everyday posts, so you can see what kind of venue I´m reviewing. I hope that will satisfy my foreign readers. (Other coment: I failed again, but I keep trying again). Find some post in English under English&thesity Category.

The name of this bolg is a joke that I made up when I arrived to the Metropolis (Madrid) from a small town, and the purpose is to comment events, bars, clubs, restaurants, openings, that are not in the travel guides. The insider’s point of view.

I love inventing new words, also expressions, and of course to make direct translation of Spanish expressions, so you probably won´t find many spelling errors (gmail has a very good check spelling tool) but hundreds if you pay attention to my grammar, and hundreds of no sense expressions. Don´t panic, feel free to send me any comments about it, I would do whatever I want, at any time, but I will always thank you for reading Inthesity.

Feel free also to take any of my pictures, almost all of them, for your web site, if you credit and Link https://inthesity.wordpress.com

Enjoy

Hi, thank you for your positive comments on my blog in regards to my “quitting”. I surely needed a lot of encouragement to keep up with my goals.

If only I can “read” your blog…

Thanks for your frequent comments on my blog. Unfortunately, I too cannot read much Spanish. sigh.

I’ll be happy to review and edit any English-language posts you want to have checked; I am, after all, an English teacher and edit lots of stuff.

Going to Madrid in May for the first time…need some tips! 🙂 I’m a New Yorker so I’m hard to please but I’m sure Madrid will delight.
Gracias,
