Spanish Lesson

[Runningwolf]

A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'
'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'

A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two
groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun.. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourselfspending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ('el computador'), because:

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model..

The women won.<BR style="mso-special-character: line-break"><BR style="mso-special-character: line-break">

Don't forget that when the computers were young, they had very limited memory and small floppy disks. As the computers aged their floppy disks were replaced with large hard drives.............................................

Don't forget that when the computers were young, they had very limited memory and small floppy disks. As the computers aged their floppy disks were replaced with large hard drives.............................................

Iternal and external and still prone to viruses. But now a days the computer can "back up" what he says about the size of its hard drive. And yes size does matter!

Spanish lesson for today. There are a few exceptions but nouns ending in "o" are masculine and nouns ending in "a" are feminine
