Hola Gena,
Gracias por su comentario. Me gustaría ofrecer más cuentos de este nivel pero me falta “feedback” de los oyentes. Si tiene alguna sugerencia (en cuanto a los temas gramaticales, etc.) se la agradecería.

If anyone would like to offer any suggestions or specific feedback to use in creating future Beginner-level stories, please email me directly at: eleena@codyscuentos.com

Thanks!

Hi Angela,
Thanks for your message. Cristina is the reader of this story (in the audio) and yes, she’s a native Spanish speaker from Barcelona, Spain. She read the story at a moderate speed, not too fast and not too slow. Although the story is for beginners, I didn’t want it to be read at a pace that would seem exaggerated or excessively slow, particularly since there are people of all levels, from beginner to native-speaker, who listen to these stories.

If after a couple of times listening to the audio you could understand more or less what was being read without seeing the text, you’re doing great! Keep it up!

Hi, that was good. Great quality audio and a nice story. The difficulty was just about right for me (ie a bit challenging). I particularly liked the speaker’s accent – she sounds native. How much slower than natural/native speech is this and where is the accent from?

I’m having troubles purchasing the beginners transcript. An error 404 message keeps popping up.

¡Hola!
Chema is a boy. It’s a nickname for “José María”, a very Spanish boy’s name in Spain. I need to tell Mommy to add this info to the blog entry.

¡Hasta luego!

Is “Chema” a girl’s name or a boy’s name in Spanish?
