Interesting
I have no idea what’s being said in Spanish a part from some basic words that I’m newly learning but I just started the story about the sunk ship and it’s interesting. Basically listening to the English context but still good lol
Mysteries work!
I’m not yet an intermediate in Spanish so I find these podcasts a bit daunting. The mystery of the lost ship Itata intrigued me so I started listening anyway. This story is so astonishing that I allowed the Chilean Spanish to flow over me, perhaps like a child experiences language. Words and phrases began to pop out. The dramatic expression carried meaning. And gradually I was understanding Spanish content without worrying about what I was missing. This is the power of great storytelling. Our children know it! Thanks so much to the many people involved in bringing the mystery of the Itata to the light.
👍
I enjoyed the serialized version of the podcast! Cherry on top was the Chilean history& accent, which I find can sometimes be overlooked when people think of Spanish speaking contries. Argentinian accent would be another cool one to explore! Keep up the great work! Hope this pod continues on this track and perhaps an Italian version in the future …?
Thank you ☺️☺️
