<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;No se enoja, se calienta. No se burla, te bardea. Así es el argentino&#8221;, se puede leer en los escalones de mármol blanco cuando uno ingresa a Vos, Club Cultural de Español, una escuela de Buenos Aires que decidió apostar por una propuesta diferente: hacer del chamuyo su sello distintivo.</p>
<p>&#8220;Muchos podrían pensar que les enseñamos a los extranjeros cómo hacer para levantarse a una mina, pero no es así, el chamuyo se trata de charlar. Desde un comienzo lo que buscamos fue vender lo que somos los argentinos, dar a entender nuestra idiosincrasia a través de la lengua y la cultura&#8221;, dice Magdalena Cambiasso, directora de la singular institución.</p>
<p>En la escuela, que es miembro de la Asociación de Centros de Idiomas (SEA), se dictan clases regulares, intensivas y privadas de español, y se prepara a los alumnos para rendir diversos exámenes que certifican su conocimiento de la lengua. También hay clases especiales para periodistas, familias extranjeras que deben mudarse al país, y para quienes desean aprender lenguaje específico de medicina o alguna otra profesión. Pero en todas ellas se enseña lunfardo y expresiones que son parte del lenguaje cotidiano de los porteños: &#8220;tomarse un bondi&#8221;, &#8220;andar a pata&#8221;, &#8220;ser un ñoqui&#8221;, &#8220;tirarse a dormir la siesta&#8221;, &#8220;morfar&#8221;.</p>
<p>Además, la escuela cuenta con un curso especialmente dedicado al chamuyo, donde un grupo reducido, de no más de siete u ocho personas, de las más diversas edades y nacionalidades, &#8220;se juntan todos los miércoles a parlotear&#8221;. En general, son alumnos extranjeros que ya tienen la lengua incorporada, pero les divierte aprender sobre la cultura argentina. La mayoría está de paso y no piensa quedarse a vivir en Buenos Aires. Los temas que se conversan varían todas las semanas, y van desde el sexo hasta la educación y el trabajo.</p>
<p>Otros de los atractivos de la academia son las clases grupales de tango, en donde se baila y se aprende lenguaje específico sobre él; los días de cine, cuando se pasan películas en español y se trabaja sobre ellas, y los distintos paseos por la ciudad que dan los estudiantes para sumar &#8220;lenguaje callejero&#8221; e interactuar con los porteños.</p>
<p>La directora de Vos, Club Cultural de Español explica que muchas expresiones argentinas suelen ser difíciles de incorporar para los extranjeros. Según ella, esto se debe a que hay cosas que ocurren en el país que no son habituales en otras partes del mundo. &#8220;El otro día una inglesa no podía entender cómo usábamos la expresión «no tiene dónde caerse muerto», y esto sucede porque a un inglés jamás se le pasaría por la cabeza esa situación.&#8221;</p>
<p>Las consultas más frecuentes aparecen cuando las mujeres se entusiasman con las novelas de la televisión y después quieren saber cada expresión que usan los actores. Los hombres, por su parte, tienen curiosidad por frases que escuchan en la calle. &#8220;Quiero aprender malas palabras que en Brasil no usamos&#8221;, dice eufórico José Nunes, de 21 años, quien decidió en su mes de vacaciones por la Argentina tomar algunas clases de español.</p>
<p>Tim Allen, un neoyorquino jubilado, se muestra feliz de estar en Buenos Aires y explica que quiere descubrir la cultura de los porteños. &#8220;Noté que aquí se toma mucho helado y ya sé lo que es un <em> telo </em> &#8220;, comenta sonrojado.</p>
<p>&#8220;A mí me encanta la palabra <em> gotán </em> , tango al revés&#8221;, dice entre risas Marcos Anderson, un sueco de 35 años, al mismo tiempo que Susana Nestor, una alemana que trabaja en una empresa de telecomunicaciones, manifiesta su ansiedad por aprender palabras en lunfardo.</p>
<p>&#8220;Los estudiantes, que generalmente llegan a la academia por comentarios de amigos o conocidos o por haber visto un aviso en Internet, quieren saber qué significa cada cosa, se vuelven locos. A veces no entienden que <em> ser gamba </em> tiene un significado e <em> ir a gamba </em> otro muy distinto. Los argentinos tenemos un manejo de la lengua muy particular. Hoy todos dicen: «está muy bueno, mal». Eso es una ridiculez, ¿cómo hago yo para explicárselo a un extranjero?&#8221;, se pregunta Cambiasso.</p>
<h2>&#8220;Una idea fantástica&#8221;</h2>
<p>El prosecretario y miembro de número de la Academia Porteña del Lunfardo, Marcelo Oliveri, calificó de &#8220;idea fantástica&#8221; la enseñanza, a turistas o visitantes de otros países, de palabras que integran el vocabulario por excelencia de las calles de la ciudad.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hay que recordar que los extranjeros vienen a Buenos Aires atraídos por el tango y el lunfardo, y se quedan fascinados, quieren saber más&#8221;, afirmó Oliveri, para quien la atracción que ejerce el baile del 2 x 4 tiene que ver &#8220;con la magia, el misterio y la seducción&#8221; propia de esa danza. Para él, con el argot tanguero sucede lo mismo.</p>
<p>&#8220;Por esa razón quieren entenderlo, saber también qué dicen las letras de las canciones. Acá, en la Academia, recibimos todo el tiempo a extranjeros que vienen a realizar consultas o a revisar los diccionarios&#8221;, explicó Olivari, quien señaló que en esa institución se dicta un curso denominado &#8220;El lunfardo en la cultura porteña&#8221;, de abril a noviembre, del cual toman parte muchos visitantes del exterior, aunque la mayor parte de los que se anotan son argentinos.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hay de todo, como mucha gente que de grande quiere saber más del tema. Y acá lo abordamos desde distintos ángulos: el origen de las palabras, el lunfardo en la gráfica y en la prensa y en el teatro, y pasamos grabaciones, películas, se hace muy ameno&#8221;, concluyó.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>One of the most well known and usual students complains is: &#8220;I have no time for doing the homework, everyone invites me to go out, they party until 9am and they drink like english!&#8221;. Its funny, but its real, people arrive and think, this is the year, the month, the week during which time I will be investing my money in speaking other language, meeting new people and enjoying myself as much as possible!, but guess what?, is really difficult to handle in a good and practical way with all the thing happenning in the city, a city which never, but never sleeps!. Yesterday night, november 12th, the goverment of Buenos Aires organized the night of the museums, a night under the beauty of the full moon which delighted 650 thousand people in the metropolis of 10 milion inhabitants:<a title="the night of the musems in Buenos Aires" href="http://http://notio.com.ar/cultura/todas-las-fotos-de-la-noche-de-los-museos-2011-20580">http://notio.com.ar/cultura/todas-las-fotos-de-la-noche-de-los-museos-2011-20580</a></p>
<p>And, today, Sunday November 13th, the sunny city offered us a beautiful clear for sunbathing, biking, be with friends, or enjoying the nature anywhere in the city, do the students will have studied this weekend?, well I dont blame them, enjoying the city, the people is also part of the practise, would you practise if yu were here? would you make the most of it regarding studying Spanish sistemathically?</p>
<p>I dont blame you, Buenos Aires never sleeps and the good vibe is evrywhere, specially in the spring, be here, be there, be in Buenos Aires, smell the city and Learn Spanish!</p>
<p>bye for now, I hope to be reading you from wherever you are!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Many times I wonder if  (we), the Spanish teachers do enough and we are efficient at work in order to explain well and properly our slang in the context of the daily use such as in the street or when we are with our friends. I have looked at many audios online and podcasts that can clarify this topic, but the offer seems to be very small when it comes to the argentinean slang. Have you find anything interesting lately regaring to the argentinean Spanish slang?.</p>
<p>I have come across a podcast from a lawyer who in a very fun and interesting way, specifically from her bathroom shares information about words like &#8220;onda&#8221; and &#8220;fiaca&#8221;, here the link to share with you more about this topic!. Share your comments!</p>
<p>Happy listening!</p>

Apparently, it was high time for a change for the &#8220;Y&#8221; letter wich instead of keep on receiving the name of (Greek i)in spanish, now is called &#8220;ye&#8221;. In Argentina, this would sounds much stronger than in other places of Latin America and Spain, but its still the same letter.Now that the &#8220;Y&#8221; is not the greek i anymore, we will call the i, just i and not Latin &#8220;i&#8221;.  If you want to say that something or someone has become an &#8220;ex&#8221; it will go right next to the word, lets say &#8220;exesposa&#8221;, &#8220;expresidente&#8221;,&#8221;exlíder&#8221; and not ex-esposa, ex-presidente or ex-líder;if its about compound words, you can place ex in a separate way: &#8220;ex capitán general&#8221;. It was the end for the CH and LL as they are not longer in the alphabet list, they technically dont belong anymore, but they are in the words calle, valle, llaves, chau, che,chusma, etc, so, in total now, the number of letters are going to be 27.</p>
<p>The new edition was not arbitrary, clearly, after 22 academies decided to make the changes also agreed on calling the &#8220;B&#8221;, &#8220;be alta o larga&#8221;,and &#8220;V&#8221;, &#8220;Be baja o corta&#8221;. Both letter change to the name  &#8220;Be&#8221; y &#8220;uve&#8221;, in Latin America uve is usually replaced by ve corta.</p>
<p>Probably, one of the most revolutionary changes has been the rule of not stressing the adverb &#8220;solo&#8221; or th demonstrative pronouns, which is interesting because we would have to be very well aware of solo with the meaning of alone, or just or only. Fortunately, the Royal Ademy of Spanish decide not to punish anyoe if they prefer to stick to the previous use. The &#8220;q&#8221; was replaced by the K as it was decided that &#8220;k&#8221; is a spanish letter and because of that consideration now, words like Qatar would become &#8220;Catar&#8221; or Iraq for &#8220;Irak&#8221;.</p>
<p>Next time, writing in Spanish will take a little bit more of time, but it will be fun!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>keep on learning Spanish!</p>
