Chat for Advanced students: Topic "bullfights / Los Toros"

Question

We are planning a chat for Saturday at 12 Spain, the usual time (remember our time is now winter time you might be an hour later or something).

Topic of the night: Los Toros / Bullfight

Ok, as I finally got several members confirmed, I have been thinking to talk about something really controversial: Los Toros!

So I would like you to take part: either in favor or against, please prepare something.

Eddy is in clear advantage, he practised this topic recently in his class and I would like him to defend his point, he sent me a very good paper on "in favour" so let¡s see who can say something against without going crazy;

The confirmed members who will be there are: Valerie, Marianne, Eddy, Samdie, Meli, Ian, Cogumela, Guillermo, RobertoSpain, Tonyriva

I hope we will get some more people, but this will be a special treat:

Cogumela, Meli, Roberto and my wonderful self : Spain

Guillermo : Argentina

Tonyriva, Marianne: Mexico ( )

Valerie : Guatemala

Ian: Bolivia

Listening in: Sandy, Echoline, Ray, Sally, Jason

Please leave a note on this thread, I will be adding those to the chat who wish to participate.

Answer 5

Me gusto mucho a apuntarme en la lista de "chat" el sabado que viene, pero me siento nervioso.

Valencia, to particpate you need to send me your skype nick, I don't know if you are advanced, we are not slowing down for beginners, everybody is invited to listen in, but this is a chat for advanced students of Spanish.

At the end of the chat we will talk English, that level is intermediate,or even beginners...so everybody is invited to chime in

Answer 6

Ponme en la lista también.

Answer 7

Ponme en lista de espera, Heidi.

Answer 8

Is this the same Skype chat people were mentioning last week? If so, I sent you a PM about it, but I did not realize it is for advanced students. I apologize! I will have to back out.

Yes, for a change for advanced students, we often let beginners listen in though, let me know;) - 00494d19, Nov 3, 2010

I am going to be unavailable this Saturday, but I would absolutely love to listen in in the future. Thanks so much for the opportunity! I will look for future postings. :) - mapletw, Nov 3, 2010

Me gusto mucho a apuntarme en la lista de "chat" el sabado que viene, pero me siento nervioso. Mis habilidades con Skype están limitado y ¿Podría considerarme una estudiante avanzado?

Yes, Eddy is a formidable character, being Heidita's novia and all, but he's a really nice guy. - Echoline, Nov 4, 2010
