ill give u a 6/10 because u spell butter right but i can tell your spanish isnt very prodigious keep on reading bro u'll get it someday

Extreme spoilers (even if you've already read the book): Don Quixote may not've been a knight-errant and knight-errants may never have existed, but the inchanters did exist and were responsible for Don Quixote's delusion. That's the point of the whole book -- Mark Twain knew this, he made Tom Sawyer in Huckleberry Finn believe in inchanters, ostensibly as a joke, really as a subtle nod for the people who noticed this. That's why Don Quixote had such an amusingly selective insanity, and why he so conveniently regained sanity before his death. Inchanters are real. Believe it.

7/10 for the slang but still too "englished" to be spanish insult

>>4486017
You give him a 7/10 just for "verga"? That is some bullshit grade inflation right there.

>>4486038
well its clear he knows some slang and that is part of language maybe he didnt displayed his full knowledge of slangs but its clear he knows a few
while its true that might be the only one he knows as far as i know we cant know so ill give him the benefit of the doubt
honestly i think 1 point is a nice but if you want we can change it to a 0.5 increase for a total 6.5

Grab yourself a copy of his Exemplary Novels. Maybe also try Rabelais next for something a bit more weird.

>>4485989
Quevedo, Antonio Machado, Borges, Cela, Gongora. Also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_Golden_Age

One of the great pieces of literature because no two people walk away taking the same thing from it.

The Leopard
Or so I've heard

I'm reading it right now and so far it seems pretty dull. It's just Don Quixote going from place to place and doing wacky things because he's insane. It was amusing at first but it's growing tiresome. Is there something I'm missing? I think I must not be a very good reader.

Every time the ingenious gentleman speaks should be an orgasm for your plebeian ears, he conceives and abandons thoughts more insightful in a second than you'll ever comprehend in your entire life. The inchanters are real and you can suck my dick.
