No Jedi can support the Darkside, but we can do the best to teach to everyone spanish, the Siths helps to any Sith who needed.

Lucho Jara's Academy is the best in all the galaxy JAJAJAJA

 

...OK, lets compromise here then....teach a Jedi Spanish so he will be able to tell you when he wants a duel with you on the bridge of the nearest Star Destryer! Lol

Iron Maiden - gods of Metal!!! I saw them live at a festival in August here - they played all the old songs - my favourite Maiden times...

También amo Judas Priest and Rush!

How is my heavy metal translation?

 

Great!!!

I saw Maiden too. They have played three times in Stgo.
'96,'01 and'04. Judas was here in september with Whitesnake
at the Monsters of Rock tour. Coverdale and Halford keep
singing as gods!

England has the best musicians in the world!

Hail!

Dieu et mon Droit

 

Darth - do you use Soulseek? I have heaps of music you would like...?

http://www.slsknet.org/download.html

its free to download and free to use - peer to peer - but the best one I have come across....

ps. I do not represent Soulseek! Just I love it - my CD collection has expanded so much since I started!!!!

 

Muchas gracias. Thank you all for any help in learning Spanish.

I missed taking up a course in Spanish, so my only tools to keep up with what I have learnt is
a Spanish Phrasebook,
an Excel spreadsheet where I put all the words and phrases I have learned,
my self-written Javascript test: here

I tend to forget most of what I've learned in my 'off' periods, so I use my online test to help me retain something.
I needed a bit of prompting to start the test prompted by DARTH_SHADOW:

This is a window - Esta es una ventana
This is a pen - Esta es una pluma
This is a Jedi - Esta es una Jedi
This is a Sith - Esta es una Sith

Not had much chance to to do Star Wars stuff in Spanish, so indepth discussions in Spanish is a bit far off at the moment.
I will have a search for the Organizacion Sith topic - thanks for the invite!

 

i help u with this...

This is a window - Esta es una ventana (good)
This is a pen - Esta es una pluma (good too.)
This is a Jedi - Esta es una Jedi (good but can be also ..UN)
This is a Sith - Esta es una Sith (good but can be also ..UN)

Sith I 5....try with this.

This saber is from a great sith.

 

This saber is from a great sith.

I don't know what 'from' is, so worked out: Esta saber es para un grande Sith.
(there seems to be dozens of translations for 'para')

Now, using my available tools to find what 'from' is.

Esta saber es de un grande Sith

Can you mark both attempts, por favor?

 

Sure!

In Spanish, the "Articles" have gender:

UN: Male (singular)
UNOS: Male (plural)

UNA: Female (singular)
UNAS: Female (plural)

note: For your knowledge, the name "Spanish" for our language is wrong. The rigth name is "Castellano" (Castilian). cause it is a tongue born in Castilla (center and north of Spain)

 

Thanx Edge, now i'm downloading

 

Castellano. Got it.

 

Good work my friend Sith, with the lesson of Darth Shadow you must be a expert in "Castellano" very soon...

Iron Maiden and judas Priest, to bigs monster of the rock. In a chapter of the Justice League Unlimited the Green Lantern Jhon Stewart see to Shayera (Hawkgirl) in a dress and he said "JUDAS PRIEST" JAJAJAJA like an "Oh My God" was very funny

I have a problem with a english word...What does mean "argentite"? or maybe is a error?

 

...sorry - never heard of it? I googled it and it appears to be a mineral of some sorts, however, unless you are a geologist or something I suspect it is a wrong spelling....?

Argentite, a silver sulfide mineral, is an important constituent of silver ore deposits. It contains 87% silver, and forms blackish-gray coatings or masses with a metallic luster and a shining black STREAK. Characteristic is the ease with which it is cut. Argentite is stable only above 179 deg C; thus, although few crystals found appear outwardly to be isometric, they are actually composed of acanthite, a chemically identical paramorph belonging to the monoclinic system. Argentite's hardness is 2 - 2.5 and specific gravity is 7.2-7.4.

 

I Know that "Argentum" means "Silver" in Latin.
"Argentite" must to be something similar to Silver.

 

Thanks you very much edge an shadow, now my life is complete
Really thanks for the answer

 

Where have you seen 'Argentite' written?

Sometimes, knowing the context of a word - the sentence it was used in, can help us to explain it.

Hey, Edge[b/], how are you doing?

Interestingly, got my first ever Castellano-language junk email (http://www.parasempre.net/); must be directly related to posting on here!

DARTH_CALLOUX, a question...when you write "AJAJAJAJAJAJA", is that laughing?


Hasta luego, Jedi y Sith.

 

Yes my friend Sith, JAJAJAJA .

I read the word in a song
"We had it all so sweet
Made for me, you, indeed...
Big secret, small the lie
Don't cry for me, oh, argentite"

That said in the song, the name of the song is "Don't say a word" of the band "Sonata Arctica" is a great song
