Yeah really, this is absolutely dumb. How did this get to the front page of hacker news? Knowing those words will literally get you nowhere if you are trying to learn spanish.
This is like trying to learn a javascript and finding that in reality it's not that hard because half the language is open and close parens, semicolons, and the word "function". Fluent in javascript!

- skore 15y ago"If you read this far, you should follow me on Twitter." I remember there was an article about this a while back which concluded that using the words "you should follow me" gets the highest conversion of readers to twitter followers. This guy gets a front page post and is at 208 followers. Maybe we can finally lay it to rest as yet another instance of the useless lifehacker circlejerk cargo cultist behavior and agree that the only thing that makes people follow your feed is good content? Please?
