Yo con un montόn.

Question

I received this message from a friend of mine in Madrid. She was speaking to me about music - she tells me when she is listening to something I might like. The online translation of this is crazy! Can anyone help me please?

Yo con un montón! Pero se me hace mas ameno escuchando la radio. Acabo de escuchar una cancion de " Nek" es italiano pero todas sus canciones son en espanol. Sus canciones suelen ser romanticas pero muy movidas La cancion se llama "al menos ahora"

Answer 1

• Montón = A bunch

Yo con un montón de tareas, con un montón de trabajo, con un montón de cosas que hacer, etc. = I have a bunch of homework, a bunch of work, a bunch of things to do, etc.

• Al menos ahora... = At least now...
• You can read the lyrics in Spanish and English by clicking on the following link. Al menos ahora.../At least now...

Thanks for a great answer, but she doesn't say 'de tareas', or 'de trabajo', so I'm not sure what she has 'a bunch of'? Sorry to be so thick! - Victoriana-lila, Mar 13, 2012

It could be that she has a bunch of CD's, cassette tapes, mp3 files, but it is more fun to listen to the radio. I just listened to a song by Nek. He is who Italian but all his music is in Spanish... - farallon7, Mar 13, 2012

Answer 2

Great explanation of un monton. Your friend also says that doing all that stuff she has to do is more pleasant when listening to the radio. She like the singer Nek, who is Italian but sings all his songs in Spanish. Thanks, Victoriana--I'm going to check out Nek on youtube right now!

Enjoy :-) - Victoriana-lila, Mar 13, 2012
