Dos cervezas por favor, learning Spanish / español help and chat

Hola!
A thread to share resources for learning Spanish, a bit of stunted chat in Spanish with what you might already know, and maybe some help from people what do good talking already in Spanish.

Ok! (means the same thing in Spanish, just add accent, jaja)

Dos huevos con bacon por favor.

Hola guapa, como estas / que tal? (depending where you are)

That’s all I’ve got, folks.

Gracias, fin de hilo del foro.

.

He estado aprendido español hace dos y media años más o menos. Pero paré cuando la pandemia detuvo mis vacaciones a España. Aprendo otra vez hace cuatro meses.

"Los testiculos del perro" is how you could describe my Spanish. Woefully inadequate also works.

A escribir eso^^ necesito un poco de ayuda sobre pretérito o imperfecto y las palabras pandemia y detuvo. Uso Google y la aplicación 'conjugato'.

Conjugato es divertido porque es conjugado y gato pero un palabra. Jaja.

find music that you like in Spanish and compare what you hear with the written lyrics

Um...

Solo mira Narcos una y otra vez hasta que suenes como dea o un traficante.

Something about understanding Spanish or probably learning Spanish for two and a half years more or less. When pandemic (something) holiday in Spain. Learn more/another for four months?

and this is me doing more Spanish reading than any other language. Fuck.

I write ? need a small help ? ? and imperfect and ? pandemic and ? I use Google and the application conjugato

Shit

Olvidé decir, por favor solo escribes cuando estás en el baño, preferiblemente sobre el shitter, como soy ahora mismo.

That's basically what I tried to say. I've been learning Spanish for about 2 and a half years but stopped when the pandemic stopped my holiday to Spain. You got the next bit right too, help with whether to use imperfect or preterite tense and a couple of words.
It also probably all came out wrong anyway.

preterite tense

I don't even know the fucking English in this thread. Double shit.

?, please only write when you are in the bathroom, preferably (on) the shitter, I eat I am now ?

hace dos y media años

Mejor dicho, hacer dos anos y medio

Hang on, yo como is "I eat" but "como te llamas" is "what is your name"

Does this mean como is a word that must be prefixed with the "Yo" bit to make sense re: eating?

Como is like or how, but also the conjugated version of comer in the first person. Context will normally tell you which one.

I eat you call yourself would be silly.

My contribution is "las luces prendidos pero nadie en casa".

Picked up from Beavis and Butthead, obviously

Yeah it made no sense until I remember the como te llamas shit.

I'm still 'reading' sentences one word at a time which is why I struggle with stuff like that.

Mejor dicho, hacer dos anos y medio

Gracias. También no necesito escribir "hace" porque that's like saying I've been learning Spanish 2 and a half years ago I think.

Good stuff @snottyotter. My gf and I started classes a bit ago, were looking at moving one day before brexit, pandemic and misaligned careers ground it to a halt. Will be back in here after I've submitted my thesis (April)
