It surprises me to know these phrases have these new meanings.

[Reply]

I enjoy your work. It is really practical as a great review as well as a ‘no-nonsense’, but fun way of beginning or maintaining your Spanish studies. Your style has encouraged me to put some of my ‘Spanish shortcuts’ on paper. I’ve taught for about 40 years [ouch!] thru retirement. Look for me in ‘Hispania’ magazine. I know, it isn’t PEOPLE en espanol, but it is a start. It was in this magazine that I first saw the Spanish/Portuguese work of the late
Dr. Gregory LaGrone, U. of Texas.
It is a serious magazine.
