Thanks for the corrections to this and the others. I always go back to my files and fix the errors. When it is not a lazy mistake or simple misspelling I ring up the actual sound track and listen to the specific part again. Unlike the early lessons they are rarely repeating sentences anymore and I am noticing more of a slurring, or blurring, or words, especially with the female speaker. I have another langauge site I check out for their daily word and sentence section so I can hear one more speaker. She is even harder to understand. I guess that's good because when I hit the real stuff in Rio again I expect most everything to just be one long sliding sound.
