Default spanish

Hi All,
I, like probably hundreds of you am in the process of learning spanish and was wondering if any of you would like to start a thread where we speak in spanish? At most it will be educational (as hopefully those better than us would correct us) and at least it would be a real good laugh
For example, a while ago I was trying to tell someone that I was green with envy - I said 'estoy verdura' what I had actually said was 'I am a green vegetable' See what I mean? Go on, give it a go

Unfortunately these forums cover hundreds of countries and if everyone used there own language it would get very confusing.
So a rule was brought in as English should be the language of the site.
Rule 16....
The language of use for this site is to be english only. Any posts/comments made by members in a different language will be removed.

We may miss a few words here and there though ;-)

Envida is envious. Did it in class today. I went into the stationers and asked for a "rubber" in Spanish and couldn´t understand why they were laughing.
