Who thought learning Espanol would be so hard

I all ways thought it would be fun to learn something new
and I knew that is was going to take a lot of work.
But I have to say it's a little harder then i thought.

when you see La means Female
and when you see El means Male

to show what I am talking about

el jefe la jefea The Boss

el jefe is male boss and la jefea is female boss.

but La douse not mean Female all the time like:
la mano the hand or la foto
and El sometimes douse not mean male like:
el dia the day or el mapa the map

And who would have thought that the A,B,C would be different but they are :

A B C Ch D E F G H I J K L Ll M N N O P Q R RR S T U V W Y Z

ok looking at it is not all that different but they have some new letters.
there is one N that has a little tiled on top of it the N that's in blue.
some of the letters might look normal but sound different.

They want us to remember
Psalm 23 but in Espanol witch might be a little harder

in English:
Psalm 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.

2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

3 he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, [a]
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.

5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

But this is what is looks like in Espanol:

Salmos 23

Jehová es mi pastor
Salmo de David.
1 Jehová es mi pastor; nada me faltará.


2 En lugares de delicados pastos me hará descansar;
Junto a aguas de reposo me pastoreará.(A)


3 Confortará mi alma;
Me guiará por sendas de justicia por amor de su nombre.


4 Aunque ande en valle de sombra de muerte,
No temeré mal alguno, porque tú estarás conmigo;
Tu vara y tu cayado me infundirán aliento.


5 Aderezas mesa delante de mí en presencia de mis angustiadores;
Unges mi cabeza con aceite; mi copa está rebosando.


6 Ciertamente el bien y la misericordia me seguirán todos los días de mi vida,
Y en la casa de Jehová moraré por largos días.


Well tonight we have a kind of a test tonight (it's not a big one but it's big to me)
Jarrett is going to read a word and wants us to spell it and to tell
it is a La El and add some other things. Yes, it is fun and scary at
the same time but when it's all done maybe I will be able to speak
and under stand it. There well be some work but i think it's going
to be worth it. If any one can lead any idea of how to remember
everything let me know I am open for any way that would help.
Just keep my in your thoughts that I can pick this up ok and fast at the some time.

Molly,

If you remember Ma Renols, those are usually the endings of words that are masculine (starting with "el"): -ma, r, e, n, o, l, s. So it helps you guess on words you don't know.

Mano is definitely an exception, but it's la foto because foto is short for fotografia, which ends in a. Words ending in a are usually feminine. I can tell you the other word endings that are usually feminine, too, if you'd like.
