Que hora son me corazon?

After absorbing so much information this morning in the previous lesson and treating myself to an almuerzo of bife de lomo, papas fritas y una cerveza I took the executive decision to jump ahead and continue with lesson 9. Obviously my currently miniscule working commitments are allowing for such events to happen.

So it is time to learn to tell the time in Spanish with Bueno, entonces.....should be easy eh, after all it is only the time. To ask for the time was something easy to pick up due to a certain Manu Chao and his song Me Gustas Tu which possesses the line que hora son me corazon?.....or what time is it my love? A line I have mastered in my attempts to communicate with my Argie girlfriend in her native tongue!! Perhaps slightly inappropriate was Davids questionning technique regarding the times of Jimena's sexual activities, with both her novio and alone, however they served the purpose of indicating and asking for the time and provided a good amount of entertainment. Who's to say learning Spanish has to be by the book!


Preposition time again here! As I've mentioned before, no matter which language, this is always a tricky topic, but credit where it's due Bueno, entonces, I think you have managed to embed the theory into the brain.....for now anyway as I'm sure there is more to come!

Before I go I must share one discovery with you....the Spanish word esposas apparently means both wives and handcuffs.....I need say no more!!
