Among firms requested languages \u200b\u200b(and other demons) Concept of Nation
During the year and a half I've been publishing this blog, I've given the job of keeping it as a space stubbornly monolingual. Of course I have published translations into Castilian and I have cited references that I receive from the language of Eliot, but I have not written a single post in English.
The reason has been bifida.
Firstly, I would not assume that all my readers speak both languages. In my real life, which is this blog, but lived in flesh and blood, I have seen time and again that although most of my friends and acquaintances English speakers speak English, not so with Anglophones and English. (Let no one be alarmed, I am not announcing the discovery of warm water). Come on, I did not want to mix Tyrian and Trojan horses. The other reason
is a practical (and sentimental). I have friends (and relatives) who grew up in Cuba, take less than a decade in northern lands and then they're releasing Anglicisms, barbarism and other atrocities beloved product mix and pollution of both languages. Let's say: "I have to keep the job." That tenderness I gave a friend of the blog-reader, "meaning" I have to catch up. " His sentence is a literal translation of "I have to keep up with work."
Given that over seventy percent of my life passes in English, I-I am an inveterate Anglophile, "in order to create a space in which he might retain (and practice) my native language, stubborn me to post this blog only in English. Moreover, the idea of \u200b\u200bwriting in English in a blog that is called Belascoaín and Neptune left me a bitter taste in your mouth.
Ah, but it will also want to write in my adopted language ...
To satisfy that whim, I created a blog to be stubbornly monolingual in English. This blog is not in place but addition, not replace Belascoaín and Neptune, but rather complements it.
A side note: the blog of yore I've created in Wordpress and advantages of that platform have left me fool. I therefore decided to also take a Belascoaín and Neptune these properties. The next three or four days, this blog will walk into safe, as I go about moving and I get to the new format. Meanwhile
: those who have visited me in this virtual corner, I hope you do not lose the road. I'll let the watchword of both blogs as soon as you have taken the back Wordpress.
To All: Thanks.
