For example, people trill their RR when they say "Flooorrrrrr" in Spanish. I find that very interesting and I would love to learn it. I know I have to flap my tongue like a flag but how? Can somebody tell me where to put my tongue and how to shape my lips etc. Any ideas will be great. Thanks!

I always attach a slightly different meaning to every synonym of a word in English, and I can't see that this would be different in any other language. So, is it the same in Spanish that every word has a slightly different meaning?

I ask because I recently asked a question on the Spanish Yahoo! Answers about the different connotations of various words (I asked specifically about lindo/a, bello/a, guapo/a, hermoso/a, etc). Almost every response just said that they were just synonyms, but I already knew that. (I think part of the problem was that I'm sure it was very easy to tell that I'm a non-native speaker, so maybe they just thought I was asking about what these words meant.)

I've asked Spanish speakers before to correct me on when to use certain synonyms (like, which is more appropriate here, "chistoso" or "gracioso"?), and they usually just tell me that they are synonyms and leave it at that.

Am I not being clear enough with such questions, or is there really no difference?

How do you speak Spain spanish? Like, how do you do the accent with the z's and c's and when and all that? Right now i think i speak with a mexican or puerto rican accent, i forgot what my teacher told me. I am just wondering if someone could describe the accent from where they come from, not just necesarily the Spain one. Thanks!

I'm not just talking about typos, for which I'm guilty, but the overall inability to to put a sentences together, use proper words and reasonable grammar, and communicate a clear thought. I understand this is an international forum and I'm more forgiving for the efforts, but the "English" speakers whine about being judged when all they do is demonstrate they're borderline morons in both attitude and expression. That says a lot about their character when they don't know how to write or refuse to try to write clearly when they're asking strangers for help. Am I alone in my dismay?

I would guess that it's realted to the other Teutonic languages except that it doesn't resemble them very closely.
