i speak spanish but somehow its still different from mexican. i dont speak much but i understand well. lol, if you get the drift.
i met a guy and he says hes like dominican, i dont wanna embarass myself by assuming. anyway please dont get mad at me, i just wanna know.
Gracias por tu ayuda.

I have investigated "Rosetta Stone" but that is way, way expensive! Then I saw and investigated "Rocket Spanish" which doesn't seem as professional, and might be a little redundant (what do I expect for ?) Any suggestions? Who has actually tried something and succeeded? I'm not good at learning languages usually, but I want to give it a try. I live in Southern California and would love the advantage of knowing Spanish, as opposed to "Spanglish", if you get my drift.
Thanks!
