Female profanities!!!

I consider myself to be a well travelled man and during my travels have always picked up on the use of foul language by the natives of whichever country I may be in, and I am now willing to make claim that the Argentines are second to known on this planet when it comes to swearing, cursing and general profane conduct of language. This revelation occurred to me following my visit to El Monumental, the home stadium of River Plate FC, on Sunday, where I not only witnessed a rather boring game of football, but also heard the most hideous things coming from the mouths of many a young lady in the crowd.......many of which are far to shocking to put into words here. But this it seems is the norm wherever you go, as you wander the streets or board a collectivo one can hear such profanities being aired from school kids to a group of 60 year old women discussing their days to one another. However the language does not seem to have the swearing harshness of English and so nobody appears ever to be insult of disturbed, which is how it should be I guess!! Returning to the football, here is clip for anyone interested of the River Plate fans.....look closely you might see me!!!

Anyway, back to Bueno, entonces after a 3 day rest and plenty of practice of course, mainly with the in-laws and attempting to understand the songs at the football. Today’s lesson, once we had bypassed David’s ever so troublesome story, which Jimena showed no sympathy towards, of visiting the wrong town, La Plata instead of Mar del Plata, for the weekend, was rather brief but informative. Once again another element of confusion for the foreigner when learning Spanish, and today's little gem focused mainly on the that there are 2 forms of the verb "to be", Ser and Estar, with ser being predominantly for permanent situations and estar for temporary, however of course this is not a full proof explanation and unfortunately I am not in the position to put it into words myself.......so you'll have to begin studying Spanish yourself with Bueno, entonces or just give up and forget about it altogether.

This took up the majority of the lesson although there was a good amount of vocabulary relating to towns and cities and apparently the word manzana, which up until now I had been lead to believe solely meant apple, also means block.....interesting!
