General Spanish Conversation

Resolved questions

So I studied Spanish for GCSE and got a B, however, most of the things we learnt aren't very useful in day to day life, I know how to order food and get/give directions, and complain cos I have no fork etcetc but not real conversation. Can someone help and give me a list of general things to talk about. Be as basic as you want, I've only just started Spanish again after 2 years so I'm very rusty.

I'd suggest you to explain as soon as possible that you're starting with spanish, so people will talk slower, making things easier for you.
I guess it's a good idea to review those day-to-day words in spanish, like asking for locations, streets, time, buying things, etc.
Also, some links like www.wordreference.com or Yahoo answers always come in handy in these cases.
Good luck!

¿Quieres una lista de cosas que hablar con la gente en español?
Nada mas fácil hombre de Dios, lo primero le dices algo como "que bonita es la vida con el petroleo por las nubes, el Euribor saliendo de la estratosfera y medio mundo en guerra" veras tu como te da conversación para rato o te ignora para el resto de la vida xD
Ok there aren´t a list of general things to talk about because may be i love Mozart and you hate him so we can´t talk about him so when you have a conversation with someone talk with him//her like you usually talk with your friend. I didn´t learn spanish and english in the school, i learned talking with friend and watching lots of cartoons :) usually in cartoons use a very simple words and i will always remember Sesame Square or Barrio Sésamo the spanish version.

Hola, Lewis. Entra en "Compañeros de idioma" y selecciona él habla español, después quiere aprender inglés, después España, después under 18, después femenino o masculino y después buscar. Mándale un mensaje a quien te parezca bien. Hay un montón de personas de tu edad que quieren hablar contigo de la vida cotidiana. Es imposible que encuentres un método mejor para aprender eso. Esto es internet, aprovéchalo. También puedes buscar en Chile, Perú, Colombia, etc... O aquí mismo poner una pregunta "¿Quieres enseñarme español a cambio de enseñarte yo inglés?". Así de fácil. Que te diviertas.
