Title: A letter problem
Post by: Drace on June 06, 2005, 07:36:56 PM
Ok, so this is my problem. In two days, wednesday, I need to make a letter about myself in spanish. But I have a problem, I can't write letters. Not in dutch nor english. I need this to be a good grade so I want to pratice. But for that, I need an example.
I know that this is much to ask, but I need an example of between the 100 á 200 words. Of course, I prefer to have several but I no that's TO much TO ask. I ask this to you, as some of you may know a site which contains stuff like this or are good in/are spanish/mexican. So, anyone who can help me out?

I can help you on this.. there's always google, I use it sometimes for writing examples. But 200 words is very short, what's the subject? Talk about yourself in spanish? Talk about yourself to a "friend" through a letter?

Yup, that's it.
I searched it on google, but I only found other kinds of letters I coudn't use.

Well any message of under 200 words is easy. The friends part must mean that it begins something like this:

Hi there! I'm glad that I recieved a letter from you, it's been years since we talked. How is it like living there? [or] That new place of yours sounds great. Me, [...]I'm currently living with my family. [...]I go to high school, where my classes are [...]. Things sure have changed, I hang out a lot with [friend], and even have a girlfriend! The other day I went to this movie, it was great. [subject] really interests me, besides that I also play this [sport] a lot.

Well that's the gist of it, this is an easy letter to do, hopefully you won't do crap ones, or even worse, cover letters.

we had something like that in english class 2 years ago.. it was something like a space capsule where u write a letter to yourself and read it 10-30 years later. it was funny cuz the whole class had a similar letter.. bwahaha.. here, i'll type the beginning of it down (yes, i kept it)

"Yo! You dork! Have u gained weight? Or are u like.. a super sexy underwear model now? I bet alot has changed since then.. I mean look.. people think you're a miniature version of the big show.. yes, you were a skinhead when you wrote this.."

that was the first paragraph.. bwahaha.. good times! and i got a B >=(

Today was the letter, and I wrote it with the little help I got and help from another friend. It went good, I expect to have a 7/8 (C/B). So, I thank you guys. Especially Blademon.
