I thank the sincere well-wishers for the feelings expressed in this post. I take this opportunity to tell why I started learning Spanish, and a little bit about my experience at SpanishDict.

I travel often, but beginning with November 2011, I began coming in contact with Spanish-speaking people of the Caribbean islands and South America. I could foresee those situations repeat again and again. That’s what got me into learning Spanish. I joined SpanishDict in May 2012. Since then, my learning has been slow but steady. I have learned enough to serve my purpose. Now I come here to keep in touch with Spanish so I would not forget what I have learned.

During the last six months that I have been more active than usual in SpanishDict, I have noticed some newcomers run away from SpanishDict. They did that after experiencing highly critical comments from some folks who have high reputations (in terms of points, but not in terms of decency). I have limited my own participation after reading some uncivil words.

I wish you the best of luck, and hope that you are not scared away by a bull dog.

And, what's my fault Rajaji? I can't offend anyone even if I want to, because of my poor English. - 00b5f6c6, Jan 19, 2014
Your comments about critical comments brought these words to mind by WC. "“You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life.” ― Winston Churchill - 0095ca4c, Jan 19, 2014
Right on Margherite! I like what you are made of!!!! - Jraider, Jan 25, 2014

Congratulations on your climb to base camp amigo.

There is no easy way up to the top though.

Just one foot after another.

Congratulations 1Rajaji. Welcome to the 10K club and climbing. May you climb the challenges of language barriers and overcome them, standing in victory, like standing on the peaks of the beautiful mountains of upstate SC.
