in spanish what are endings people can add on to a word:
-ito as in hijito (little child?) (miguel to miguelito)
-cillo (flores to florecillo)
these arent in the online or offline dictionaries. they are just endings which can be applied to any word almost
my question:
1) more examples
2) of the ones i listed, how do they change the meaning of the word they are added on to?

freshmen drinking.
Posted Sunday January 13 2008, 1:45 pm
I'm in high school, 15/f, a freshmen and it seems like everyone in my school besides me drinks and does drugs. I will NEVER drink or do drugs because it ruins your life...but at lunch one day, my friends were all talking about how they went to one of my friends house, let's call her A, and how A's mom was home and they still got away with drinking vodlka and beer and getting crunk together. Only one of my friends had a sip of vodkla and nothing else at the party but all of the sudden I was sooo mad. The day before the party, my friend who only had a sip of vodlka [lets call her F] was like, to A, "yeah, I'll have a drink, and I'll get close to drunk." and A was like, "F! I am sooooo proud of you! You don't know how proud I am...

History is my worst subject and I have a plain F. Then in Science a D. And all the rest is A's and B's. I am really trying to keep my grades up and trying to get the rest of my grades to go up. I've been trying to study for tests but what I study is completely off. And I really don't know what to do. I talk to my teachers but I don't understand.

A) popular (of course) or
B) loving the way I am and stop being SOOOOO fricken jealous of the popular kids walking down the hallway everyday?
Thanks!

I need a prop!
Posted Thursday January 10 2008, 10:06 pm
I'm reciting the poem by Emily Dickinson called "There is another sky"
I need to bring in a 'prop' though. I have no idea what to bring! So please help (:? Seriously, anything is appreciated. Here is the poem so you can give me ideas :
There is another sky,
Ever serene and fair,
And there is another sunshine,
Though it be darkness there;
Never mind faded forests, Austin,
Never mind silent fields -
Here is a little forest,
Whose leaf is ever green;
Here is a brighter garden,
Where not a frost has been;
In its unfading flowers
I hear the bright bee hum:
Prithee, my brother,
Into my garden come!

I am a very high-performing student. I have never in my entire life gotten below an 86 on report cards, and have an IQ of 143, which I think is pretty good for my age.
I always used to sit in class and be bored as the teacher rambled on for days on things I could not grasp why others did not understand. There were a bunch of helping classes for low-performing students, but never any AP classes. I mean it's only middle school, but you know, it's four years in the same school.
Just this year (8th grade) they installed an AP Algebra class, but I am terribly bored in other subjects, especially English, which is basically full of idiots.
My question is, why did no one ever install ...

Is My teacher being unfair with my grade?
Posted Thursday January 10 2008, 3:32 pm
My class was assigned a persuasive essay and we had an assembly the day it was due. my hour was during the assembly. like any other class that i have ever had i assumed it would be due the next day for my hour because we didnt have that class AT ALL that day so i didnt hand it in, because i didnt go to class, because we didnt have class. the next day i went to hand it in and my teacher told me she was going to take 10% off because it was LATE! She said she told people in my class when she saw them in the hallway to pass it on that the papers were still due, but apparently no one informed me. She also said in her "class expectations" under the ABSENTEE policy it says if you are at school for any part of the day she expects all work...

Spanish native speakers?
Posted Wednesday January 9 2008, 8:11 pm
Hi,
I'm a junior and I am writing a term paper for my AP Spanish literature class which will be due some time next week. I am essentially looking for a pen pal to help scan my essay for grammatical or idiomatic errors. Is there an advicenator out there who is either a native Spanish speaker or a Spanish student who is proficient with grammar, and willing to look over my essay?
In return, I offer the same favor for any sort of English paper, as my English grammar is excellent. Thanks
And please do not respond if you merely speak Spanish well, for I do too, or I wouldn't be taking AP Spanish.
