Now to move on to asking someone how old they are.

How old are you? - ¿Cuántos años tienes? (kw-an-tos a-nyos tee-enes)
I am ... years old - Tengo ... años (tengo ... an-yos)

When telling someone your age "Tengo ... años" (your age in Spanish - ...) you are actually saying "I have ... years". Instead of "I am ... years old"

I just do not think I will ever master Spanish. Things like these just do not sink in for me. It must be my age.

One of my favourate Spanish phrases
"Me pregunto si esta lloviendo en Manchester"

I wonder if is raining in Manchester?

I visit my apartment in Spain two or three times a year and love it. I love the weather, the Spanish language and traditions.
