June 18, 2014. The Skinny Horsemen of Peru. 8220;…all the king’s HORSES. And all the king’s men, couldn’t put Humpty together again.”. Last year, I enjoyed the privilege of traveling to the South American country of Peru. And, as always, my travels are full of new people to know, and new things to learn. For me, the most valuable information I learned while on that trip was really something that I already knew. Or, at least, should have known. Easy enough, right? I’ve tried to move on as much as po...

There’s a First Time for Everything | Paloma Linguistic Solutions
https://palomalinguistica.com/2014/01/02/december-30-2013-estrenar
January 2, 2014. There’s a First Time for Everything. Spanish is a fascinating language for many reasons. To me, one of the language’s most outstanding characteristics is its ability to express an idea with one single word that would take many words in English to properly convey. The word for this week, estrenar, exemplifies this concept. For the first time. In this case, “estreno” = “wearing…for the first time.”.

Don’t Focus on the Guidance of Fake Friends | Paloma Linguistic Solutions
https://palomalinguistica.com/2014/09/30/dont-focus-on-the-guidance-of-fake-friends
September 30, 2014. Don’t Focus on the Guidance of Fake Friends. As I reviewed the list, I found that I can personally identify with five of the terms explained in the article, especially with the word enfocar. At first glance, it is easy to assume the correct translation for this word is “focus”, or “concentrate”. And I am guilty as charged for making that assumption. However, the correct word is actually centrar(se). Well, I’m sure a lot of others knew, just not me! Thanks for tuning in. You are commen...

March 17, 2014. Chasing the Wild Goose. However, today’s word has nothing to do with that, either. Now that we’ve begun a wild goose chase…which actually is more in line with an explanation of what today’s word means…let’s get back to the post already in progress. Is quite an interesting word. (Then again, I suppose, to me, they’re ALL interesting, eh? Is one who probably is not a person of confidence.
