Is listening to the Spanish accent bad for your health?

    I’m away to Spain during Easter and after a brief encounter with a group of Spanish students on public transport, I’m thinking will the locals and their style of speaking and accent be a challenge?

    Those of you living in Spain or having lived there.. is it hard to adapt to?

    You'll need to scrub yourself with a brillo pad, it's that infectious.

    Three cornerstones of Spanish life/parenting.




    1. Get USED to loud noises.
    2. Start MAKING loud noises.
    3. Start staying up stupidly late.
    (optiontal 4.) develop a fascination with poo.

    They are fine in their own country, they seem to only become wankerised when they arrive here.

    Trying to get pass them is harder than listening to their accents.

    Why do the students put their backpacks on their chest?

    Do they expect to get pickpocketed every time they walk outside?

    Possibly that but it also makes it easy to access maps, documents, books, etc. with both hands. I've often moved a backpack to my chest for that purpose.

    The Spanish send all the wakerised ones over to Ireland for the summer so they have a bit of peace at home

    We should send all the c'mere buds and junkies over to them, Dublin be a grand city then

    Have you been to las ramblas or any public space in Spain ?

    I hope this doesn’t turn into a moan about Spanish students trend. It was more about how it is in Spain. Is it a bit trying for the ear?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,817 ✭✭✭✭whisky_galore


    I'd rather any number of Spanish over GAA jersey wearing dopes on tour who think they're great craic.

    In Spain you'll be encountering mainly adults, so they'll all sound like Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem.

    Being serious, Spain is great and the only large groups you'll meet on the street or on public transport will probably be tourists.
