No hablar espanol mi amigo? Por que'.


JaundicedEye,

Uhh... You forgot to conjugate the verb.

Hablar = 'to speak'.... the infinitive.

Second person singular formal would be 'habla'.

Furthermore, since the question in English would tend to place emphasis on the word 'You', one might also include its Spanish equivalent...

Perhaps...

¿Usted no habla español, mi amigo? ¿Por qué?

You do not speak Spanish, my friend? Why?


There are likely other errors in it, but a bad verb conjugation? Dayum. That is obvious even to me. My old Spanish teacher drilled those into us but good. And my wife (Both a Spanish and a German major on her BA) does not let me forget it either.

Don't blame me, I voted for Johnson(L) in 2016.

Truth is dangerous... especially when it challenges those in power.

Thinking about this in the small hours of the day.

Watching a couple of YouTube videos, I am reminded that leadership means exactly or precisely that thing.

Not necessarily about Donald Trump only here.

Also we should know what the opposite thing is supposed to be.

What is the better thing when it comes to this?

Guess I already was able to say it.

Well, in Madrid maybe. In México you would need to conjugate it into the familiar tense. There are some big differences between Castilian and LAM Español. Of course that doesn't count Spanglish.

Oh, never mind in México you may need to speak some Native languages as well, such as Mayan.

But surely Donald can say it in french.

That's how they speak in some parts of northern America.

“I wanted to hit a couple of those speakers, so hard, I would have hit them, no, no, I was going to hit them so hard.”
...
he went on to say that he wanted to hit one guy, a little guy “I want to hit this guy so hard his head would spin.”

Really?! A candidate for president who wants to physically assault people who don't agree with him? Is he running for President or Dictator?

My last formal exposure to Espanol was in 1961, I have picked up enough in my career to usually understand what is being said though not revealing I did. It came in handy dealing with sub-contractors who didn't think 'el jeffe' got what comments were made..........":D

Body Language Expert Weighs In on Donald Trump’s Awkward RNC Stage Hugs With Melania and Ivanka

Just another article, with a Stupid and Idiotic attack against Trump.

Doesn't the Stupid and Moronic Democrats understand this:

#1 - All these attacks will just have people believing ALL attacks are... Then dismissing the important ones.

#2 - There March to Victory Message is: If you can believe it. Trump is worse than us!

#3 - The Stupidly attacking Democrats, and the sycophant News Media. Are just sowing the fruits of their defeat.

Body language usually displays the truth, where words are often lies.

Which are the true Trump tweets seen in this Donald Trump now hates Michael Bloomberg because Bloomberg was mean to him.

In 2013 Trump said Bloomberg was a great Mayor and a great guy. This week Trump said he was a disaster at being mayor and during or after Bloomberg's address at the Democrats convention said,
"I was going to hit one guy in particular, a very little guy," Trump said, making a clear reference to Bloomberg's stature. "I was going to hit this guy so hard his head would spin and he wouldn't know what the hell happened. He came out of nowhere!"


Who's attacking whom, a threat of violence would suggest Trump is the aggressor.

Right, same thing happened in NYC in 2003, where the police were outnumbered by over 200 to 1, naturally chaos ensued (*).

The Police are always "outnumbered" in Riots and other Civil disorders.

Doesn't matter in 'Effectively Containing' the problem.

Note: The police are not attempting to Stop Riots or Civil Disorders. That is impossible. Just attempting to contain (with the assistance of an Armed Citizenry in nearby neighborhoods) 'The Problem'. Until The Rioters (killing the people and destroying the future of those living in the Rioting Areas) get tired.

Did you deliberately miss the point of my post? There was nothing to contain in 2003, certainly no riots or civil disorder. While you may seen rioting in NYC when the power went out, you would not have seen any in 2003. Perhaps NYC is not the place you remember.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

Visit often, and stay with relatives, for extended periods, living in NYC. Understand?

Clyde your relatives have a comprehensive understanding of what is happening in New York?
Me thinks New York is much too big for that.

betreger...

If you are not a New Yorker, you don't understand.

Residential New York is not a Melting Pot. It is a Quilt Patchwork. With many groups (as in other Cities) living in their own neighborhoods. With their own Language, Religion and Culture. Understand?

The composition of residential area's, are not static. But change over time. Understand?

Example: One of the neighborhood's I lived in, is now almost entirely Korean. With Korean stores lining all the streets.

Yes, I visit often to see the changes to the residential neighborhood's in New York.

BTW: 'Little Italy' is no more. 'China Town' has now expanded into formally 'Little Italy'. Just the 'Store Fronts', for the tourists, are Italian. Understand?

Me thinks New York is much too big for that.

betreger...

You don't understand this...

New York is not 'One Big City'. It is a composition of small enclaves, neighboring each other.

Understand?

Clyde you can't have it both ways.
In your belief that I do not know what is happening in NYC today.

Visit often, and stay with relatives, for extended periods, living in NYC. Understand?

Let's try to stay away from criticizing each other either directly or indirectly. That sort of stuff really doesn't add much to the topic and is tiresome to read.

Again you don't understand.

Just referring to your "outnumbered" and "natural chaos" post.

Nothing more. Understand?

BTW: You are, as usual, incorrect again. In your belief that I do not know what is happening in NYC today.

Visit often, and stay with relatives, for extended periods, living in NYC. Understand?

bobby...

You haven't changed.

You do understand the meaning of "perhaps" don't you? You are incorrect regarding the belief you assign to me; how could I know the depth of your awareness of current events in NYC?

Do you understand "irony"? That "natural chaos" post contained some, and even highlighted it with an asterisk:

[...] naturally chaos ensued (*).

(*) there was no widespread chaos, indeed "Since most perishable items were going to spoil anyway, many restaurants and citizens simply prepared what they could and served it to anyone who wanted it, leading to vast block parties in many New York City neighborhoods."


The text after the "(*)" was the point of my earlier post, and it seems that you did indeed miss it, though, given your misunderstanding of why I asked whether it was a deliberate miss, it seems the miss was accidental.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...

As for the recent Trump coverage in the biased media. Learned commentators feign the obvious knowledge that Donald Trump was sarcastically asking the Russkies to hack the missing E-mails. This was a taunt on the recent hack of Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz's E-mails that show her and the DNC working against poor Bernie. And the fact that 30,000 E-mails have "mysteriously" gone missing from Madam Clinton's private collection of graft and influence solicitations. Also, I think that Trump doesn't think that the Russians were involved at all and that this was a fabrication by the DNC to take the reporting away from the outrageous content of these very DNC E-mails about Bernie.

There was never more obvious sarcasm--those that deny it are disingenuous; in fact they are bald-faced Liars.

Back to IMPORTANT SUBJECT -

Backlash for Trump after he lashes out at the Muslim parents of a dead U.S. soldier

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/backlash-for-trump-after-he-lashes-out-at-the-muslim-parents-of-a-dead-us-soldier/2016/07/30/34b0aad4-5671-11e6-88eb-7dda4e2f2aec_story.html

This is what I have been trying to say about Democrats and The Media. Who are Enabling a Trump Victory, by their stupid attacks against Trump and his Supporter's.

Don't respond to his attacks. Stay positive. Address the valid concerns of the American People.

And most importantly... Allow Trump to commit political suicide.

Edit: To the Trump supporter's in these Threads.

What are your feelings regarding what Trump said?

Absolutely, from the article you linked:

“Trump’s slur against Captain Khan’s mother is, even for him, beyond the pale,” tweeted John Weaver, a Republican strategist for Ohio Gov. John Kasich. “He has NO redeeming qualities.”

Matt Mackowiak, another GOP strategist, tweeted: “There is only one response for Trump to the criticism: ‘As an American, I deeply appreciate the patriotic sacrifice of the Khan family.’”

“There is still a role for shame in society,” Stuart Stevens, former top strategist to 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney, tweeted out Saturday in response.

“He’s a person that has no self-control. He just has no sense of decency or empathy when it comes to dealing with others,” said Tim Miller, a veteran GOP strategist and former communications director for Jeb Bush. “It’s always zero sum. You compliment me, I compliment you. You criticize me, I mock you. That’s what this is about. It’s all about him and his egotism.”


Stupid democrats for saying such things and stupid media for reporting what the stupid democrats said.

(We can all agree that the quotes are from particularly stupid democrats, as they don't even know which party they belong to).
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that ...
