On Spanish TV :-)

Check this out… I was on Spanish Television :-) La mejor manera de aprender inglés. Be sure to watch the video in the article. For those of you who don’t speak Spanish.. here is a translation into English (note.. Google translates Marina into Navy from Spanish! Pretty funny!)

    That video was very strange. I understood most of it but when they had the other people doing stuff, like the guy with the penguin, I became very confused. Are you going to have to learn spanish now :?: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

    They might have called you “Dock”.

    Some day perhaps you will be a Phd, which would make you Doc Dock.

    Yep, Marina in Spanish is Navy or something related with the sea; the interview is short.

    I liked the comment of “pipoun” because he couldn’t be more sincere:

    Hermosa mujer esta. Pero de verdad me cuesta mucho aprender lo que me enseña

    Bad Teacher! :evil: ??

    Hope to see in Russian Television,

    Greetings

  • ragabashmoon

    Heh, weird it also translated it to “he” and “her” and at one point “their”

  • ragabashmoon

    uh weird it won’t let me watch the video, my browser must not like that spanish site it’s on..

  • ragabashmoon

    Ah I got it to work, i was calling up the image in a new window, not the link to the actual site haha

    <– stupid

  • ragabashmoon

    Right, and even in America we use “marina” as a naval term like “dock” as someone said below. If you own a yacht, you keep it at the marina unless you have a yacht AND a seaside home where you can park your yacht.

  • ragabashmoon

    You know, I bet she could a lot easier than most of us. When you are a child you learn languages easily, but as you get older and no longer “need” to learn languages, the synapses, now unused, begin to die. However, if Marina started learning English early enough, she very well might have kept using those synapses.

    It’s why as much as I wish immigrants would learn English, I DO understand that it’s VERY difficult for an adult compared to a child. Plus, here in America we are offered foreign language classes in HIGH school, well by then you’re too old to be learning a new language EASILY. Really if America wants to be multi-lingual like much of the rest of the world, we need to start younger.

    Another interesting thing about learning and brain function, there’s a nunnery I heard about (forget where or the name) where all the nuns are always learning, and in all the years they’ve been doing it, not a one of them has ever had Alzheimer’s or any other type of senility, seeming to suggest that if you keep learning ravenously, you don’t need to worry about senility or Alzheimer’s.

    Another interesting video. The translation is amusing to read, sort of like the difficulties the technical writers face when putting out an instruction manual in different languages, especially when English is not their first language. I must say, however, your beauty translates perfectly without any language barriers… :wink:
    I await your next video with bated breath. Oh there’s an idea…why do we wait on things with bated breath? Is there a lesson in there?

  • thesineater

    I’m spanish speaker, and the most important thing that the text says is ‘Marina is very, very beautiful’.
    We all knew that.

    Yo no me pierdo un solo episodio.

    Ojalá Marina hiciera algún video en español.

  • pennsyltucky9

    I prefer to think of her as one of my piers.

  • pennsyltucky9

    Global saturation is just around the corner. You GO girl!

  • slipperynoodle20

    Cool. A broadcast in Spanish about a Russian philologist in the USA teaching people around the world about English words and phrases. Isn’t this great? :cool:

  • Богдан

    ragabashmoon, I’m gonna bet that the nunnery (convent?) you mentioned where there is zero incidence of Alzheimer’s, I bet there’s not one television in the place.
    Ninety percent of television programming is nothing more than cartoons for adults, five percent is cartoons for children, and five percent (History & Discovery Breast Augmentation Channels) are like Sesame Street for adults, barely.
    My fiance’ and me take evening walks through our single family homes neighborhood. The streets are deserted, while almost every single home we pass casts the flickering light of a wide screen HDTV. If you could hear brains atrophying, it would be one noisy neighborhood.

  • ragabashmoon

    yeah, nunnery or convent, I’ve heard both used, no idea which one is more proper. But yeah, I’m very sure they don’t have TVs either. TV is for entertainment, not education.

  • bobsully

    You’re taking over the world!!!! Congratulations Marina. :grin:

  • tdwnarrows

    i couldn’t understand any of it ,but i gave it five stars because Marina was in the video.Good job Marina

  • Bob

    I’ve always been a Navy man. :grin:

  • dvdpage

    I Know and the flickering light when it hits the eyes may be harmful. Not just the brain. Mass De-sensitization is one of the unintended consequences of cheap and easy lifestyles. Thank God to Marina for her efforts and all of us for supporting these kinds of interests. When I lived just outside Yosemite Natn’l Park people did take walks down the main street. Husbands and wives hand in hand. Beautiful!
    Thanks again Marina! Beautiful Marina!

  • donfelipegonzales

    Dear teacher
    !CaRaMbA! !Yo no sababo que tu hables espanol tambien! (ouch!forgive me fellow spanish students!). The advertissement is welcome. The world need to know what is happening here. I’m happy to learn that your student number is going to increase. I’m sure that each of your student talk about you to their friends, so one more year and people from planet Mars are going to request words’ origin!
    Amicalement
    Your devoted student
    Don Felipe

    I served in the Marina.. I mean Navy for 4 years. They say battleship sailors have bigger guns, 16″ 50s in fact. I’m still doing push up to maintain that fact.

  • roachmeistercom

    Ah! :smile:

    Beautiful!

  • ample

    At least they capitalized Navy.

  • jsmooth5atl

    Cool video however I didn’t understand what they were saying. I knew I should had token that Spanish class in high school. :mrgreen:

  • errin

    Excellente! Fantastico!

    One with such broad appeal as Marina should try as many media outlets as possible, as the appeal of education and words is universal. Much better than taking one’s talents and relegating them all to one basket.

    Our trusty teacher is obviously a very intelligent, strong-minded woman to be so smart and wise with the use of her formidable skills. I know I’m impressed. Keep up the good work, HotForWords. : )

    It is not Spanish television, or at least not the channel in which I saw, the channel is called the sixth and is a very liberal channel with programs bestial and amusing as the intermediate or what we did last week, the intermediate is a program that puts the whole world give birth with much sarcasm and brazen and best director is one of the sons of the most famous circus of Spain, Emilio Aragon, is the best channel for Spain in my opinion, I think the rest TV trash pure and hard and if you want to interview, the program Buenafuente, http://www.buenafuente.lasexta.com/ a program with great humor and fun.

    Buretos recipes and the lawn has moles. There was some spanish rice left? Bartering with words against the United States Constitution the spanish as language fail to grow on a vine but incidently discovered the lies stated in the constitutional endowed marriage certificates and the spanish as a people came in fourth place! Astrodes? It is not really a border problem between countries in the Dred Scott Decision. The “United States History” is negligent of all foriegn policies. The “wedding song” in thirty six languages is like Nimrod in the bible, yet, also reveals a truth! Dum de dum dumb and dum? The entire decision with “I do” was weary of something else to blame another nation of the “state intent,” now considered a “bridal rape!”

    Los espanoles tienen un acento muy distinto de lo de nosotros quienes hablamos espanol mejicano — dithen “la luth, la voth,” et thetera.
    Hay un dicho que dice: “El espanol habla; el mejicano canta.”
