Anybody want to help set up a Bitcoin SV (BSV) meetup in Bu…

If I was anywhere near there I would

Have you moved to Buenos Aires? How long are you going to be there for?

Oh I just read one of your Spanish tweets and it says that you're going to be there for a year if I got that right. My Spanish is iffy

I plan to be here most of the time for the next year or so.

Will the meetup be only in Spanish or will there be English one as well? Have a feeling an English one would also attract some folks who would take it as an opportunity practice their English.

It will have to be in English until hablo más español :)

I can help with BSV meetup in Moscow

Coincidentally, I have started brushing up on my Spanish and want to pass on an excellent resource that may also be available to you with your municipal library card for free (it was for me) as well as a bit of advice on learning a new language. Mango Lang

Let me emphasis, when you are first learning a new language reading and writing are a huge waste of time. It will screw your pronunciation the fuck up and you will not be able to understand anything spoken forever so stay away from writing and reading

Mango Languages. What I have used in the past with good results is Pimsleur Language learning but this Mango is very much in the same vein and loads onto my phone easily. Here is the advice: spend 90%+ of the time you have to learn on speaking and listen

PS I learned French as a young man and lived and worked in Quebec City and Montreal for 4 years in French and so have learned a language without these learning aids. Wish I'd had them though. The classes I took in school were a colossal waste of time

Wonderful advice, Olee. Thank you!

can only really do 30 minutes a day before overload starts. The Pimsleur were great because at the beginning of the lesson there would be a seemingly long conversation, completely incomprehensible and by the end of 30-45 minutes I could understand the whol
