Tiosam 0 Posted December 15, 2014 Is your country corrupt like Venezuela? Do you like where you live? Spain have corruption, but less than Venezuela. I am not bad here, but i was better when i lived in the south of spain. I now live in Valladolid and lived in Benidorm(16 years) , i hope to return to live in Benidorm, the climate,people, and the mediterranian is fantastic :| . PD: I was born in Andorra , but is better not to talk :lol: - Question In uk, the schools teach spanish or other languages for the children? Quote Share this post Link to post
VENGA BUS 2,027 Posted December 15, 2014 They do. They generally teach French, Spanish and German, in that order in terms of preference. However, I spent the majority of my time in Spanish lessons dead-arming a friend, and getting dead-armed. Some paper aeroplanes were also thrown. Consequently, my Spanish is not bueno. What time does school start and finish on a normal day, in Spain? Is it like the siesta culture, where you work late and go out drinking late, or like UK, where it's generally between 8AM-4PM?

The school and high school is 6 hours, normally 8:00 to 14:00 , the education in spain is worse than other countries of europe. The job is around 8 hours, can be 6:00 to 14/15:00 or 4 hours in the morning and 4 hours en the afternoon (very bad, you don't have time to relax). The Germany job system is better - Question Likes the monarchy to uk people? , in spain the people want a referendum Quote Share this post Link to post

I suppose it's something we've gotten used to and is part of our culture. The queen doesn't have any power at this moment she is more just a public figure. Most people like the idea of having this figure for them to follow, I personaly am not to bothered although I do get to miss scho every once in a while because of here -Why are the Spanish so good at sport?

Tiosam 0 Posted December 16, 2014 -Why are the Spanish so good at sport? Basketball, football etc... I don't have a plain answer, Since they were children, the most popular sport is the football, and the principal clubs of spain have a lot of money (Madrid and Barça) , this clubes are investing in young child. - Question Who win the champion league? :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post
Motoko Kusanagi 0 Posted December 26, 2014 I miss this thread...It was a good idea. The reason I didn't answer is because I hate football and don't want anything to do with it . But I will answer it and I'm gonna go for Arsenal assuming they're in the champions league only because their my local team :grin1: My question is: What is so great about football, particularly in England, why is everyone so obsessed with it compared to other great sports like Basketball and Bike Polo (lol)!?
