Lupe (at least I think that's his name) is Matilde's father, and he quit his trabajo because he was angry about something. I get the impression that he doesn't approve of Matilde having a boyfriend, but I could be way off.
This channel has some spanish programming, but they also have italian, portuguese etc. I wish we had a channel dedicated to spanish language television!
According to my mother, who was a teacher, principle and specialist in early childhood development, tells me that the more I listen to it, the easier it will get to figure out where words begin and end. She says that's the first step babies take in learning language, along with imitating sounds. So, I keep listening, and I think the individual words are starting to be more distinguishable.
I'm still listening to my cd's and working away at those. It's slow progress because I keep going over the same cd's making sure that I have a good understanding of them before moving on to the harder ones.
I found out that community college here offers a Spanish for Beginners course, so Gerald and I will take it next summer. He wanted to take it this winter, but with my classes for school I don't think I could fit another course in!!! This coming fall/winter is my last year towards my degree!!!!
