Welcome to the forum! grin

I notice that your profile shows that your native language is neither Spanish nor English. Not a problem. This site is full of fantastic people who are very helpful and considerate. Don't be shy.

I saw your first post. Don't worry about it. It's all part of learning.

Please, join us in the learning experience! Make yourself at home! grin

Don't worry just keep doing what you're doing and you'll soon feel at home. When posting a question it's good to keep the title short and sweet but stating exactly what it is you want to know that way people will see at a glance if they can help and you'll get some good answers.

If you need something translated then put your attempt in the box under your heading along with a bit more of an explanation of how we can help. This is so that we can see your level and where you may need some suggestions or corrections.

And that's about it - remember to thank those who take the time to offer help by voting for them and making them feel appreciated, actually that bit's optional I'm just kidding lol the first two points are the important onessmile

Hi Prassy and welcome to the forum. You are doing great! It took me a few weeks to figure out how to ask a question and it was only a comment. Keep up the good work. smile

One formatting item to keep in mind is not to used "double quotes" in the first line of the description part of your question. For some reason it messes up the link to your question. They are fine in the Title of the question. If you need to highlight something in the first line of the description use 'single quotes', «Spanish angular quotes» or something similar.

Welcome to the forum Prassy, as you may have already noticed the big question is your place of origin since both Spanish and English are new to you. I notice that you put Chennai and it is only because I remember seeing that as the home of our own Vaanz that I know it is in India so you may want to add that to your profile.smile
