I love patterns.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines a “pattern” as;”A regular and intelligible form or sequence discernible in the way something happens or is done.”
The great thing about patterns in language learning is, once you notice the pattern, all you have to do is act accordingly. It’s simple. There are some very simple patterns that you will soon be able to notice for yourself. These patterns will make your language learning so easy, you’ll wonder why you hadn’t noticed them before. Here’s a simple pattern to get started on.
Consider these sentences:
Soy inglesa I’m English
Soy española I’m Spanish
Soy inteligente I’m intelligent
Soy tonta I’m silly
Soy baja I’m short
Soy alta I’m tall
Soy trabajadora I’m hard-working
Soy perezosa I’m lazy
Soy graciosa I’m funny
Soy simpática I’m nice
Soy una mujer I’m a woman
Soy un hombre I’m a man
Can you see a pattern emerging? Great. You’ve got it!
It’s all about patterns…pretty patterns, interesting patterns, colourful patterns, language patterns.
More next time…

Hi. It should be “Espero que te haya sido de ayuda”.

Great point about the value of thinking in terms of patterns. People often don’t realize how many things they could, in theory, say. Take your one pronoun (first person singular) and your twelve adjectives, and that’s 12 sentences. Add another pronoun (let’s say second person singular) and, with a little bit of fiddling with the inflection of the verb, you have 24 sentences. Add “muy” and now you can say 48 sentences, with just two pronouns + one adverb + twelve adjectives = 14 words. Add “we” and it’s 96 sentences with 15 words–you see the pattern…

Exactly my point! Thanks for saying it better than me. Was that an algorithm?
Cheers for that.
