Whatever.
Okay, I have a few questions now that I've started my course.
Why is it that 'v' sounds like 'b', and 'b' sounds like 'v'? It's almost like they're the same letter in sound but not in writing.
I've been reading your verb conjugation explanations and they've been helpful. However, when you have two verbs in a sentence, do you only conjugate the first and not the second? Como se dice 'I am going to dance' en espanol? In German, you usually conjugate the first verb and leave the second in its infinite form.

Same thing in Spanish, blue.
"I am going to dance" = Voy a bailar.

well when you have an unconjigated verb, it's going to mean "to (verb)"
for instance: bailar- to dance. so if you say i'm going to dance you'd say voy a bailar. you conjugate one verb, and not the other.
it doesn't always work out that way though. when you get a little more advanced you'll learn things like, i want you to dance. in which case you would say quiero que te bailes. because it's more of a command. (i want that you dance) is the literal translation.
"a" means "to" in spanish. it's doubling the "to" but that's just how it's done.

in hearing normal people speak you would probably hear it more as "voa bailar."

i can't really explain the difference between the sound of b and v without actually saying it to you.
they are very very similar sounding. best way to learn pronunciation is to listen to spanish speakers. (however, even they get confused by it.)
check out this song. in the chorus she says "no se puede vivir con tanto veneno..." she just puts her lips together and it sounds like a soft bibir/ beneno..

also in this song she says, "voy a pedirte..." which means "i'm going to ask you." pedir- to ask. when you put the "te" behind it it means they're going to do that verb to you. just an example of two verbs being in a sentence...

Every language has stuff like that, B.
In Slavic languages, there is iotation and palatization. There is also voicing/unvoicing.
I am not sure what that phonetical term for this Spanish nugget is though.

Whatever.
It's always hard getting the pronunciation of a new language down, especially when there's sounds you don't typically use in English.
I found a couple of German sounds hard, and don't even ask me about Punjabi.....I had to contort my mouth in ways it just wasn't used to.

When I was learning Spanish, I could never get down the whole accent thing. I didn't understand it very well.
I did however catch on the German pronunciation very fast. I am good at imitating in general, that's probably why. However, I find slavic L and R very difficult to pronounce. I can roll my R but they do something different.
