does anyone here know how can I change my name on the chat, the computer add my full anem *name not that I care
Hmm... seeing as to I think its just us two, and I just  signed up, I don't actually know how to do that. Although your question goes along beautifully with the prompt  :).
wow you speak really nicely
Thank you
more words you use, more points you get?
I have no idea. I just didn't want to send three different messages
I would really love if someone would tell me how to change my name on the chat haha are you a BYU student ??
I tried logging out and logging back in, but I didn't see anything. However,  I believe you can create a new profile with a different name and just create a new chat. And I will be attending BYU come Fall. Also the main page says if you have any trouble you can email chitchat.byu.net
oh, I tried those two idea
It didn't work?
but I cannot create another account because I already used my BYU id I emailed them hopefully they will answer me back excited to come to BYU?
Hopefully :) Yes, I am excited to come to BYU. I have waited a while to be able to go to college, so I am very excited.
nice where were you before?
I was on my mission, but it was stuck right in the middle of the year. I ended up being away from school for 3 years rather than 2. So I can't actually complain ;).
oh I see, I hate when that happens where did you serve your mission?
Dallas, Texas. I spoke Spanish, though, which was cool.
Thats awesome, I heard that even though Texas in inside the US, it is still a very different place to go to Did you learn a lot of spanish??
I did. I got a chance to talk to people from 16 different Spanish-speaking countries. And I don't think Texas is that different. However, don't tell a Texan that :).
what? 16 different Spanish speaking countries that is awesome, do you remember all of them ? haha, Texan are very proud of their "country", I remember some texan from my mission and they were a little bit different
Nice, where did you serve? And yes, I remember all the countries. Give me a second and I will send them.
cool
Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina, Uruguay, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Spain, and Bolivia.
I served in Idaho haha a very different place from the US
I may be wrong about Bolivia, I don't remember. What part of Idaho?
this is cool, do you remember if the accents were different? I know Angentine spanish is very different from Mexican Pocatello mission, I served in Idaho Falls, rexburg area, around Jackson WY and Yellowstone park up in montana, all the way down to Bear lake utah
I remember the accents being very different. My trainer could guess someone's native country based just on accents.
wow, your trainer was a pro 16 countries are a lot
I met a few people on my mission who served in Idaho, but I don't remember their names. Also, I totally agree on my trainer. I was really lucky.
I can only recognize from Spain and Argentina because they are so obvious where is your trainer from?
Dallas was a big melting pot, so people from lots of countries lived there. Also, my trainer was from Taylorsville, Utah. Do you speak Spanish, then?
thats is true, I still want to understand why so many people go to Dallas. do they have lots of jobs there? I understand about miami, new york and parts of california but isnt dallas in the middle of the state? I do speak a little bit of spanish, but my native tongue is portuguese, most known as the celestial language haha
I spoke to a few people from Brazil on my mission, and I can kind of understand Portuguese.j Ignore the .j part of that sentence, I hit my keyboard on accident (not hard). And Dallas is just big because there are jobs there. And there are jobs there because there are people there. So the system is just feeding itself perpetually :).
haha no problem, I have to fix evrything I type, I terrible at typing Brazil is a big place, everytime I meet someone they asked me If I know someone specific, and I have to remind people that Brazil has about 300 million people haha
Yeah, typing can be interesting :). I never had that problem with Brazil (since I'm not from there), but I find that funny.
interesting thing about Dallas. I've never been to texas, so I dont really have an set opnion about it
It's a nice area. I enjoyed meeting people from different countries more, though.
the only said thing about speaking portuguese is that only 3 or 4 countries is the whole world speaks the languege. Brazil, portugal, Angola and somewhere else in Africa
I think Mozambique. I have an acquaintance who is going there speaking Portuguese.
THAT ONE thank you n
No problem :).
I should know that haha only four countries that speak portuguese or maybe more and I have no idea
Yeah, how could you not know the name of a country in an entirely different continent whose only similarity to you is the language? :)
diferent than spanish that is spoken in like 439 countries in the world and is very usefull I had to know because there are only a few of us portuguese speakers haha
Though it isn't widely spoken, Portuguese is pretty much a blend of a few other languages. You could learn to speak 4 languages by the time I learned 1.
that is true, I actually learn french as a second language and my grandparents always wanted me to learn italian right after, but I decided to start learning english
See? That makes you more diverse in languages than I am.
portuguese is a romantic language, there are 5 romantic languages in the world today part of the latin dialect. Portuguese, italian, french, spanish and romanian. but then I came to the US to learn english and totally forgot french. It is such a hard language to learn
I didn't know that Romanian was considered a romantic language. That is cool. And I bet you could remember French if you started seriously practicing again. I think it is probably harder to keep up on French since there aren't tons of native French speakers who live around here.
I could. I tried to listen to some french music and talk to some french people, so the language can come back easily, but it is sitll hard to remember it is a very difficult language to conjugate and use all the verbs, futures and pasts, because there are so many rules
I haven't ever tried French, but I don't think I'm going to be trying any time soon.
true, it is really hard to find french native speakers around here, sometime I talked to them when I visited the foreign language housing by the MTC You should, it is a beautiful language, it is hard because it as created based in the latin dialect, but just to the kings an queen to speak, so it is very formal but with time it became very popular with the people as well
That is pretty cool. I love learning things about languages and cultures.
sorry that my spelling is terrible, I'm at work so I'm paining much attention
It's okay, I hardly even noticed.
I love talking about languages as well, and all the stories. But only when grades and GPAs are not involved haha
:)
