pronunciation problems

J (to M): How do you say "what"? 

M: o que

J: No, like "What's your name?"

M: Qual

J: That's hard

M: No it's not. Just try to say "quail" with a mouth full of marshmallows. Qual

J: Qual. Hey! It works! Qual e seu nome?

Thanks, Rosetta Stone. I can now learn someone's name! 

grande amor e gatos e peixes

Oi!

This is where I will share stories about my endeavors learning a new, new language!
I'll try to post something I've learned each Tuesday :)

But, just for fun:
Yesterday I made a new sentence on my own. Mark and I were surprised...

Jess: Eu tenho grande amor por voce!
Mark: Whoa! Where'd you learn that??
Jess: Eu made it up. Was it right?
Mark: Yeah!

So, now my sentences include love for my husband and cats looking at fish. That's what I call progress!
