Very basic sentences!

Very basic sentences!

Soooooo, I've written a very short little passage with SUPER simple sentences. I've only been learning for about a week so bear with me, haha. I know it won't sound like how a person would normally introduce themself, but the point is just to see if I can use some of what I've learned to form basic sentences. So, how did I do?

¡Hola! Me llamo Allyssa. Mucho gusto! (: Soy inteligente, hablador, y morena. No soy atlético. Como pizza y manzanas. No como arroz. Bebo jugo y no bebo té.

You did it ok. You can try this:

¡Hola! Me llamo Allyssa. Mucho gusto! (: Soy inteligente, habladorA, y morena. No soy atléticA. Como pizza y manzanas. No como arroz. Bebo jugo y no bebo té.

Sólo es cuestión de género, pero muy bien!!!

Ok muchacha lets get down to business. Try a more flashy approach. Like this: ¡Hola! Mi nombre es Allysa. ¡Qué agradable a conocerte! Yo me describiría como conversador inteligente, y marrón. No soy tan atlético. Me gusta la pizza y las manzanas, pero no me gusta el arroz. Puedo beber el jugo, pero yo no bebo té.

                       Which is translated as:

Hello! My name is Allyssa. How very nice to meet you! I describe myself as smart, talkative, and brown. I'm not that athletic. I like pizza and apples, but I do not like rice. I drink juice , but I do not drink tea. Good luck. wink Hope this helped.
