Über diesen Titel
In this episode, Gwyneth talks about how she started using her regular newspaper column “Capital Letters” to add some natural Spanish into the lives of the English readers based on the Spanish coast. She reads “Sizing things up”, which touches on such topics as word order – “dos años y medio” versus “two and a half years” – how Sam was wrong when he sang “a kiss is just a kiss”, and how Don Quixote may actually have been a big Don Quixo.
Sprinkled with lighthearted linguistic insights, with a scattering of Spanish that allows the reader to assimilate new vocabulary and phrases from context, the “Capital Letters” essays have been collected into a book, which is available to buy from Gwyneth’s website either alone https://gwynethbox.com/b/capital-letters-essays-of-expat-life, or as part of the “Expat essays” bundle of books: https://gwynethbox.com/b/a0M5x
