Visual Link Spanish(TM) Testimonial &#8211;<br />
=======================================</p>
<p>Hello David,</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had your Spanish &#8220;Visual Link&#8221; course for a couple of weeks now.<br />
I am very impressed to date. I&#8217;ve always known quite a few words in<br />
Spanish, but never had the ability to, as they say &#8220;put it all<br />
together&#8221;. Your course has really allowed me to do that. I find<br />
myself thinking in Spanish quite a bit with a lot of things I&#8217;m<br />
trying to say in English, day to day.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m really taking my time, as I&#8217;ve just finished the 5 sections<br />
associated with &#8220;basic needs&#8221;. Your approach to grouping words in<br />
&#8220;basic needs&#8221; is brilliant. I feel really confident and don&#8217;t require<br />
the manual as the instruction is so good. &#8220;Maria&#8221; has an excellent<br />
voice for learning !!</p>
<p>I took a chance buying your product, as there are so many Spanish<br />
courses available. I believe I chose well and will recommend it to<br />
others.</p>
<p>Gracias,</p>

The Official &#8220;Ask Dave&#8221; Section &#8212;&#8211;<br />
=====================================</p>
<p>Question</p>
<p>Hola Dave</p>
<p>When do we use ¿Cuál? y ¿Qué? in a question?</p>
<p>Can I use ¿Cuál día vas al teatro? or is it ¿Qué día vas al teatro?</p>
<p>Gracias</p>
<p>Ramona</p>
<p>Answer</p>
<p>Hola Ramona,</p>
<p>There is a set specific rule and way to do it, however people from<br />
some regions - especially Mexicans tend to break the rules.</p>
<p>Basically, the official rule is:</p>
<p>Qué</p>
<p>If you are talking about a noun and the noun comes directly after<br />
&#8220;what/which&#8221;, you should use &#8220;Qué.&#8221; Here are some examples:<br />
&#8220;What/Which book?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Qué libro?&#8221;, &#8220;What/Which car?&#8221; would be<br />
&#8220;¿Qué carro?&#8221;, and &#8220;What/Which experience?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Qué<br />
experiencia?&#8221;</p>
<p>Cuál</p>
<p>You use &#8220;Cuál&#8221; when the noun doesn&#8217;t come right after. Here are some<br />
examples: if you were to simply ask &#8220;Which?&#8221; it would be &#8220;¿Cuál&#8221;,<br />
&#8220;Which is it?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Cuál es?&#8221; and &#8220;Which (one) do you think&#8230;?&#8221;<br />
would be &#8220;¿Cuál piensas?&#8221; In contrast, the phrase &#8220;¿Qué piensas?&#8221;<br />
means &#8220;What do you think?&#8221;</p>
<p>Sometimes native speakers, especially those from Mexico tend to use<br />
&#8220;Cuál&#8221; when they should used &#8220;Qué&#8221;. Here are some examples:<br />
&#8220;What/Which book?&#8221; is said &#8220;¿Cuál libro?&#8221;, &#8220;What/Which car?&#8221; would be<br />
&#8220;¿Cuál carro?&#8221;, and &#8220;What/Which experience?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Cuál<br />
experiencia&#8221;. </p>
<p>To answer your original question, since &#8220;día&#8221; is a noun, the phrase<br />
&#8220;¿Qué día vas al teatro?&#8221; is tecnically correct, however, many<br />
Mexicans and some people from other regions may say &#8220;¿Cuál día vas al<br />
teatro?&#8221;</p>
<p>
Dave  </p>
<p>==============================<br />
Culture &#8212;&#8211; Spain or Mexico<br />
==============================</p>
<p>
Many people have the mistaken idea that the Spanish language that is<br />
used in Spain is completely different from that spoken in Mexico.<br />
They also believe that if you speak in Mexican Spanish, they won&#8217;t be<br />
able to understand you in Spain. I&#8217;m not sure where people get this<br />
idea from but it is simply not true. As I mentioned in the newsletter<br />
last week, some words may vary region to region (especially slang or<br />
swear words) but the core Spanish language spoken in each country is<br />
still the same. </p>
<p>In fact, there is a very close correlation between English from the<br />
United States, England, and Australia and Spanish spoken in Spain,<br />
Mexico and Latin America in general. For example, if someone from<br />
England or Australia talks, I, as an American, can understand them<br />
just fine and they can understand me. Sure we have different accents,<br />
some of their swear words are different, and I may not understand<br />
many of their slang words but we can understand each other. It is the<br />
same with Spanish in Spain, Mexico and Latin America. They have<br />
different accents and their regional uses of some words may vary but<br />
they can understand each other just fine. </p>
<p>Briefly, some differences in accent between Latin America and Spain<br />
are that in Spain, when they say their &#8220;S&#8217;s&#8221;, they make more of a<br />
hissing &#8220;s&#8221; sound. Also, in Spain, the &#8220;z&#8221; and &#8220;c&#8221; (followed by &#8220;e&#8221;<br />
or &#8220;i&#8221;) make a &#8220;th&#8221; sound instead of the Latin American &#8220;s&#8221; sound.<br />
And finally, in Latin America, the &#8220;ll&#8221; can sound like an English &#8220;j&#8221;<br />
or &#8220;y&#8221; depending on the region, however in Spain, it is generally<br />
pronounced like a &#8220;y&#8221;.</p>
<p>(Just a little side note: Mexico is considered part of Latin America;<br />
I have distinguished them since around 70% of Spanish speakers in the<br />
U.S. come from Mexico and the rest from Latin America in general.<br />
Source: census.gov)</p>
<p>All of these accent and vocabulary differences were considered as we<br />
created our Visual Link Spanish™ course. As part of our creation<br />
process, we had it reviewed by individuals from South America, as<br />
well as corporate executives, a lawyer, and a linguist from Mexico in<br />
addition to one from Spain. Although our course favors Latin American<br />
Spanish and is recorded by a Mexican woman&#8217;s voice, we have ensured<br />
that almost every word in the course can be understood in whatever<br />
country Spanish is spoken.</p>
<p>During the creation process, we took things a step further and were<br />
very picky about using the most contemporary words and phrases in the<br />
course. There are many phrases that are currently found in textbooks<br />
that are no longer commonly used in Latin America. The reviewers<br />
helped us use the most common phrases in use today for subjects like<br />
telling time, greetings and many others.</p>
<p>Now you know the scoop on the difference between Spanish from Spain<br />
and Latin America. </p>
<p>Sneak peek at next week: &#8220;Now or Right Now? (Important Cultural Time<br />
Differences)&#8221;</p>
<p>¡Qué le vaya bien! (May everything go well for you!)</p>

examples: if you were to simply ask &#8220;Which?&#8221; it would be &#8220;¿Cuál&#8221;,<br />
&#8220;Which is it?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Cuál es?&#8221; and &#8220;Which (one) do you think&#8230;?&#8221;<br />
would be &#8220;¿Cuál piensas?&#8221; In contrast, the phrase &#8220;¿Qué piensas?&#8221;<br />
means &#8220;What do you think?&#8221;</p>
<p>Sometimes native speakers, especially those from Mexico tend to use<br />
&#8220;Cuál&#8221; when they should used &#8220;Qué&#8221;. Here are some examples:<br />
&#8220;What/Which book?&#8221; is said &#8220;¿Cuál libro?&#8221;, &#8220;What/Which car?&#8221; would be<br />
&#8220;¿Cuál carro?&#8221;, and &#8220;What/Which experience?&#8221; would be &#8220;¿Cuál<br />
experiencia&#8221;. </p>
<p>To answer your original question, since &#8220;día&#8221; is a noun, the phrase<br />
&#8220;¿Qué día vas al teatro?&#8221; is tecnically correct, however, many<br />
Mexicans and some people from other regions may say &#8220;¿Cuál día vas al<br />
teatro?&#8221;</p>

<p>==============================<br />
Culture &#8212;&#8211; Spain or Mexico<br />
==============================</p>
<p>
Many people have the mistaken idea that the Spanish language that is<br />
used in Spain is completely different from that spoken in Mexico.<br />
They also believe that if you speak in Mexican Spanish, they won&#8217;t be<br />
able to understand you in Spain. I&#8217;m not sure where people get this<br />
idea from but it is simply not true. As I mentioned in the newsletter<br />
last week, some words may vary region to region (especially slang or<br />
swear words) but the core Spanish language spoken in each country is<br />
still the same. </p>
<p>In fact, there is a very close correlation between English from the<br />
United States, England, and Australia and Spanish spoken in Spain,<br />
Mexico and Latin America in general. For example, if someone from<br />
England or Australia talks, I, as an American, can understand them<br />
just fine and they can understand me. Sure we have different accents,<br />
some of their swear words are different, and I may not understand<br />
many of their slang words but we can understand each other. It is the<br />
same with Spanish in Spain, Mexico and Latin America. They have<br />
different accents and their regional uses of some words may vary but<br />
they can understand each other just fine. </p>
<p>Briefly, some differences in accent between Latin America and Spain<br />
are that in Spain, when they say their &#8220;S&#8217;s&#8221;, they make more of a<br />
hissing &#8220;s&#8221; sound. Also, in Spain, the &#8220;z&#8221; and &#8220;c&#8221; (followed by &#8220;e&#8221;<br />
or &#8220;i&#8221;) make a &#8220;th&#8221; sound instead of the Latin American &#8220;s&#8221; sound.<br />
And finally, in Latin America, the &#8220;ll&#8221; can sound like an English &#8220;j&#8221;<br />
or &#8220;y&#8221; depending on the region, however in Spain, it is generally<br />
pronounced like a &#8220;y&#8221;.</p>
<p>(Just a little side note: Mexico is considered part of Latin America;<br />
I have distinguished them since around 70% of Spanish speakers in the<br />
U.S. come from Mexico and the rest from Latin America in general.<br />
Source: census.gov)</p>
<p>All of these accent and vocabulary differences were considered as we<br />
created our Visual Link Spanish™ course. As part of our creation<br />
process, we had it reviewed by individuals from South America, as<br />
well as corporate executives, a lawyer, and a linguist from Mexico in<br />
addition to one from Spain. Although our course favors Latin American<br />
Spanish and is recorded by a Mexican woman&#8217;s voice, we have ensured<br />
that almost every word in the course can be understood in whatever<br />
country Spanish is spoken.</p>
<p>During the creation process, we took things a step further and were<br />
very picky about using the most contemporary words and phrases in the<br />
course. There are many phrases that are currently found in textbooks<br />
that are no longer commonly used in Latin America. The reviewers<br />
helped us use the most common phrases in use today for subjects like<br />
telling time, greetings and many others.</p>
<p>Now you know the scoop on the difference between Spanish from Spain<br />
and Latin America. </p>
<p>Sneak peek at next week: &#8220;Now or Right Now? (Important Cultural Time<br />
Differences)&#8221;</p>
<p>¡Qué le vaya bien! (May everything go well for you!)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello Anna,</p>
<p>First, I would like to offer you an apology.  Early this morning, I<br />
became aware of an issue that took place over this week that kept a<br />
lot of people from being able to successfully take advantage of the<br />
great savings being offered on the Visual Link Spanish(TM) Course.</p>
<p>There was an unscheduled update with our shopping cart which resulted<br />
in problems for many customers.  This problem has been corrected and<br />
you should no longer have a problem placing your order.</p>
<p>The special offer was to end soon, but due to the unforeseen problem,<br />
I have extended the special offer to get the Visual Link Spanish(TM)<br />
Course for $110 off until Tuesday!</p>
<p>To save $110 and get the Visual Link Spanish(TM) course for only<br />
$89.99, go to:</p>
<p>http://www.learnspanishtoday.com/order/norisk.html</p>
<p>In case you no longer have the details of the sale, I have included<br />
them below:</p>
<p>With today&#8217;s economy, the competitive nature of the world today and<br />
so many products out there that don&#8217;t work, I felt a strong need this<br />
week to warn you of THE RISKS OF NOT USING VISUAL LINK SPANISH(TM).</p>
<p>By ordering Visual Link Spanish(TM), you avoid all of the risks<br />
below!</p>
<p>&gt;&gt; http://www.learnspanishtoday.com/order/norisk.html &lt;&lt; <br />
(list price $199.95, order (above) by August 26 and your cost is only<br />
$89.99!)</p>
<p>1. THE RISK OF LOSING MONEY - You could waste between $40 and $350 on<br />
other Spanish courses that don&#8217;t work. In today&#8217;s economy, every<br />
dollar kept in your pocket counts! With Visual Link Spanish(TM), your<br />
intellectual investment yields high satisfaction dividends.<br />
2. THE RISK OF FRUSTRATION - You could spend a lot of time with other<br />
Spanish courses and never actually get anywhere. This can lower your<br />
self confidence in connection with learning languages and even make<br />
you think you have a deficiency in learning in general. <br />
3. THE RISK OF WASTING TIME - You will likely spend a lot of time<br />
learning words with other courses but never gain the skill of putting<br />
them into sentences. It that happens, you will never truly learn to<br />
communicate with people in Spanish and gain the highest satisfaction<br />
of language learning - that of gaining friendships with the warm and<br />
friendly people who speak Spanish.<br />
4. THE RISK OF CONFUSION - With other courses, you will spend a lot<br />
of brain power learning words and rules that aren&#8217;t always clear and<br />
that you may not remember. Visual Link Spanish(TM) teaches you to<br />
build sentences in a fun, easy and simple way with high retention.<br />
(see testimonials below)<br />
5. THE RISK OF GIVING UP ON A GOAL - With other courses, it may take<br />
years to reach your goal of becoming fluent (if you even reach it at<br />
all). Many people give up on their goal after using courses that are<br />
designed to sell well but don&#8217;t actually work. As you spend time with<br />
the Visual Link(TM) system, you will become fluent in a few short<br />
months and feel the satisfaction of accomplishing your goal!<br />
6. THE RISK OF LOST EARNING POTENTIAL - You may miss out on a pay<br />
raise or new position you&#8217;ve applied for by not being bilingual. <br />
7. THE RISK OF LOST HEALTH BENEFITS - Many studies have reported how<br />
learning a second language can stave off the affects of Alzheimer&#8217;s.<br />
If you don&#8217;t act soon, you may even forget that you received this<br />
email. <img src='http://www.learnspanishfreecourse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> <br />
8. THE RISK OF LIMITED COMMUNICATION - by not learning Spanish with<br />
the Visual Link(TM) system, your potential to communicate with<br />
friends, family or coworkers will be limited.</p>

<p>SEE WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY:</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #1:</p>
<p>Hola!</p>
<p>I knew when I found your web site on the Internet that this program<br />
was going to be just what I was looking for.   I have just finished<br />
up the first section of Basic Needs and I am looking forward to the<br />
remainder of the lessons. </p>
<p>We have a large Hispanic population in our area now and I thought it<br />
would be an interesting and fun challenge to learn their language.   </p>
<p>I have also heard that learning a new language is good for the mind,<br />
especially in our senior years.   I never dreamed at my age I could<br />
ever learn another language, but you have made that possible.    I&#8217;m<br />
really enjoying it and amazing myself!</p>
<p>The lessons are wonderful and so well put together.  I like the<br />
gradual introduction to the mechanics of the language as well as<br />
listening to the Spanish being spoken so that I can actually hear how<br />
it is to be pronounced.   I also like the fact that I can go at my<br />
own pace and at my own leisure.   </p>
<p>Thanks for a great program and Happy New Year!</p>
<p>Hasta luego!</p>
<p>Elizabeth Johnson</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #2: </p>
<p>Hola Dave,</p>
<p>We arrived in La Paz in December.  I used the basics while driving<br />
down from Bellingham, WA (including the 400 mile detour from Seattle<br />
to Portland).  I&#8217;m now working level 2.  Love it.  I reviewed your<br />
program with my private tutor.  She was very impressed with it.</p>
<p>When will level 3 be available?  If it is not in the works, it should<br />
be.</p>
<p>Warmest regards,</p>
<p>Luiza </p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #3: </p>
<p>Dear David Clark,<br />
Thank you for your follow up assignment.</p>
<p>I must say that your program is the best I have encountered so far.<br />
It is straightforward and very user friendly.</p>
<p>I have other programs, e.g. Rosetta Stone, but your program is by far<br />
the best. In such a little time I have learned a whole lot of Spanish<br />
with your program.</p>
<p>I work at a major city hospital in New York with over 90% native<br />
Spanish speaking staff and patients; and your software is proving to<br />
be very useful.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have the same kind of program for French. </p>
<p>And keep up the good work.</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Ernest Bhabor.</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #4: </p>
<p>I like the mini-manual the most because it demonstrates sentence<br />
construction and is the best aid for participating in actual<br />
conversation.<br />
&#8211; Catharine Wofford</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #5: </p>
<p>The form that the course is in- with the subjects that you couple<br />
with the verbs and objects- is just so appealing to my mind&#8217;s logic<br />
that it sold me on your course above all the others I looked at<br />
online.<br />
&#8211; Jeff Glen</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #6:</p>
<p>The manual was very simple and easy to understand. It was very user<br />
friendly. I really liked the layout and how each section built on the<br />
previous section. It was very methodical. The layout was very<br />
logical.<br />

<p>Hola!</p>
<p>I knew when I found your web site on the Internet that this program<br />
was going to be just what I was looking for.   I have just finished<br />
up the first section of Basic Needs and I am looking forward to the<br />
remainder of the lessons. </p>
<p>We have a large Hispanic population in our area now and I thought it<br />
would be an interesting and fun challenge to learn their language.   </p>
<p>I have also heard that learning a new language is good for the mind,<br />
especially in our senior years.   I never dreamed at my age I could<br />
ever learn another language, but you have made that possible.    I&#8217;m<br />
really enjoying it and amazing myself!</p>
<p>The lessons are wonderful and so well put together.  I like the<br />
gradual introduction to the mechanics of the language as well as<br />
listening to the Spanish being spoken so that I can actually hear how<br />
it is to be pronounced.   I also like the fact that I can go at my<br />
own pace and at my own leisure.   </p>
<p>Thanks for a great program and Happy New Year!</p>
<p>Hasta luego!</p>

<p>Hola Dave,</p>
<p>We arrived in La Paz in December.  I used the basics while driving<br />
down from Bellingham, WA (including the 400 mile detour from Seattle<br />
to Portland).  I&#8217;m now working level 2.  Love it.  I reviewed your<br />
program with my private tutor.  She was very impressed with it.</p>
<p>When will level 3 be available?  If it is not in the works, it should<br />
be.</p>

<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #3: </p>
<p>Dear David Clark,<br />
Thank you for your follow up assignment.</p>
<p>I must say that your program is the best I have encountered so far.<br />
It is straightforward and very user friendly.</p>
<p>I have other programs, e.g. Rosetta Stone, but your program is by far<br />
the best. In such a little time I have learned a whole lot of Spanish<br />
with your program.</p>
<p>I work at a major city hospital in New York with over 90% native<br />
Spanish speaking staff and patients; and your software is proving to<br />
be very useful.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you have the same kind of program for French. </p>
<p>And keep up the good work.</p>
<p>Thank you very much.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Ernest Bhabor.</p>

<p>I like the mini-manual the most because it demonstrates sentence<br />
construction and is the best aid for participating in actual<br />
conversation.<br />
&#8211; Catharine Wofford</p>
<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #5: </p>
<p>The form that the course is in- with the subjects that you couple<br />
with the verbs and objects- is just so appealing to my mind&#8217;s logic<br />
that it sold me on your course above all the others I looked at<br />
online.<br />

<p>&gt; TESTIMONIAL #6:</p>
<p>The manual was very simple and easy to understand. It was very user<br />
friendly. I really liked the layout and how each section built on the<br />
previous section. It was very methodical. The layout was very<br />
logical.<br />

With today&#8217;s economy, the competitive nature of the world today and
so many products out there that don&#8217;t work, I felt a strong need this

By ordering Visual Link Spanish(TM), you avoid all of the risks
below!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hola Anna,</p>
<p>With today&#8217;s economy, the competitive nature of the world today and<br />
so many products out there that don&#8217;t work, I felt a strong need this<br />
week to warn you of THE RISKS OF NOT USING VISUAL LINK SPANISH(TM).</p>
<p>By ordering Visual Link Spanish(TM), you avoid all of the risks<br />
below!</p>
<p>&gt;&gt; http://www.learnspanishtoday.com/order/norisk.html &lt;&lt; <br />
(list price $199.95, order (above) by August 26 and your cost is only<br />
$89.99!)</p>
<p>1. THE RISK OF LOSING MONEY - You could waste between $40 and $350 on<br />
other Spanish courses that don&#8217;t work. In today&#8217;s economy, every<br />
dollar kept in your pocket counts! With Visual Link Spanish(TM), your<br />
intellectual investment yields high satisfaction dividends.<br />
2. THE RISK OF FRUSTRATION - You could spend a lot of time with other<br />
Spanish courses and never actually get anywhere. This can lower your<br />
self confidence in connection with learning languages and even make<br />
you think you have a deficiency in learning in general. <br />
3. THE RISK OF WASTING TIME - You will likely spend a lot of time<br />
learning words with other courses but never gain the skill of putting<br />
them into sentences. It that happens, you will never truly learn to<br />
communicate with people in Spanish and gain the highest satisfaction<br />
of language learning - that of gaining friendships with the warm and<br />
friendly people who speak Spanish.<br />
4. THE RISK OF CONFUSION - With other courses, you will spend a lot<br />
of brain power learning words and rules that aren&#8217;t always clear and<br />
that you may not remember. Visual Link Spanish(TM) teaches you to<br />
build sentences in a fun, easy and simple way with high retention.<br />
(see testimonials below)<br />
5. THE RISK OF GIVING UP ON A GOAL - With other courses, it may take<br />
years to reach your goal of becoming fluent (if you even reach it at<br />
all). Many people give up on their goal after using courses that are<br />
designed to sell well but don&#8217;t actually work. As you spend time with<br />
the Visual Link(TM) system, you will become fluent in a few short<br />
months and feel the satisfaction of accomplishing your goal!<br />
6. THE RISK OF LOST EARNING POTENTIAL - You may miss out on a pay<br />
raise or new position you&#8217;ve applied for by not being bilingual. <br />
7. THE RISK OF LOST HEALTH BENEFITS - Many studies have reported how<br />
learning a second language can stave off the affects of Alzheimer&#8217;s.<br />
If you don&#8217;t act soon, you may even forget that you received this<br />
email. <img src='http://www.learnspanishfreecourse.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> <br />
