Spanish Language Headlines
Tan and Tanto
Tan and tanto are obviously related to each other, and they are both used in making what are known as comparisons of equality. However, they are not used the same way: Tan is used with adverbs and adjectives, while tanto (and its variations) is used with nouns.Tan and Tanto originally appeared on About.com Spanish Language on Tuesday, August 31st, 2010 at 01:07:25.
Reflexive Form May Bring Subtle Change in Meaning
Sometimes when you see a reflexive form of a verb in use, it may be hard to tell how its different in meaning from the standard form of the verb. The fact is that sometimes, as explained in our new lesson on the difference between caer and caerse, the change in meaning sometimes isn't much.Reflexive Form May Bring Subtle Change in Meaning originally appeared on About.com Spanish Language on Monday, August 30th, 2010 at 15:32:13.
Winning with Ganar
If you're playing a sports contest or buying a lottery ticket, one word you might want to be able to use afterward is ganar, as it's the most common Spanish verb for "to win." The same word is used to refer to earning money. One good way to remember this word is that it's related to the English verb "to gain," which makes it a cognate.Winning with Ganar originally appeared on About.com Spanish Language on Friday, August 27th, 2010 at 05:30:26.
A Name for Almost Every Relative
As a reader recently reminded me in an email, there a names for family relatives that exist in Spanish that we don't have in English.
Concuñado and concuñada had long been on our list — that's the husband of your wife's sister or the wife of your husband's brother. But I confess I was stumped to recall the word for the father-in-law or mother-in-law of one's child — only in the past few months have I had such a relative. As it turns out, that's another con- word — consuegro or consuegra.

Hacia Usually Used To Mean "Toward"
If you're already familiar with the common prepositions such as en and para, here's one that you don't see quite so often: hacia. The preposition hacia usually is used to indicate motion toward a person or thing. It also be used in describing directions or attitudes and in giving approximations of time.Hacia Usually Used To Mean "Toward" originally appeared on About.com Spanish Language on Wednesday, August 25th, 2010 at 02:21:32.

Why Build A Community For Language Learners AND Travelers?
The question I've been getting since we decided to create this online community for language learners AND travelers is WHY? Why have a community for language learners and travelers. Don't they already have communities for language learners? Yes, they do! One really good one is called iTalki which I am a member of. And what about travelers?
