It’is one of the reasons I’m moving out of the city. I can expect groups of 10 or more to congrigate on the cornor out side my bedroom window thursday-sunday nights. The volume and choice of vocabulary from 10 PM-3:30AM is troublesome and annoying.If an “F” bomb is not the first word in the sentence it sure is in there somewhere.As to the busses..Could they not have a scheduled route? West6th,7th and 8th streets are not wide enough for bus traffic. Could the party busses follow the centro bus routes? I agree that reducing drunk driving is a big positive.To the students, Party on dudes and dudettes, But don’t forget to be excelent to the residents when you invade their neighborhoods.

López Mon, 19 Apr 2010 12:31:39 +0000 http://www.spanglishbaby.com/?p=7766#comment-6610 One of my favorite things to do when the children were very young was to buy a book in English such as “The Very Hungry Caterpillar” or “Goodnight Moon”, which are classics and sure to be a hit. Once the story has been read a million times and pretty much committed to memory, I buy the Spanish version. Now when I read them the Spanish versions there aren’t pleas of, “Can you read it in English? … Can you translate it? … What does that mean?” — There is no frustration because they already know the story by heart and so the new vocabulary comes almost seamlessly.
