Bronx, NY (September 08, 2014) – Spanish is one of the most delightful languages to listen to, but learning it when you are not immersed in the culture can prove to be quite a task. Spanish enthusiast and entrepreneur, Eldon Mirjah, has created a new and fun way for people to learn Spanish without having to relocate to a Spanish speaking country.
Gritty Spanish: Real People, Real Spanish, Real Gritty is the name of Eldon’s website. The website-www.grittyspanish.com-features 31 MP3 formatted raw and true-to-life conversations, along with transcripts of the conversations side by side – in the popular PDF format. Each MP3 of an episode will contain the lyrics of the conversations, so owners of an iPhone, iPad, iPhone, & Galaxy devices can read the content of the audio. The Gritty Spanish MP3 dialogues and transcripts are available for ($59.99) and offers complete value for money.
The 31 conversations which you can purchase on the Gritty Spanish website attempts to replicate real life conversations, and are filled with emotions, arguments, frustrations and more. The accents in the dialogues are varied and features colorful voice actors & actresses from Mexico, Bolivia, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Spain, Guatemala and Columbia. This was done to reduce monotony and to train the ears to the intonations, so learners can apply it in whichever Spanish speaking nation they happen to visit. Though it offers a quick and easy way to learn Spanish, Gritty Spanish is not geared towards children due to the intensity of many of the conversations.
Eldon Mirjah said, "I’ve always wanted to create something like this because I am a Spanish learner and was continuously frustrated because I couldn’t find any down to earth content; the content was just too ‘nice’. I wanted to give the intermediate-advanced learners of Spanish a fun and more interesting way to learn the language by listening to real everyday and sometimes over the top conversations, so it’s easier to remember. I also wanted to create a learning option that was affordable."
Eldon also said, "Gritty Spanish is like reality television without the TV." A Spanish student who tried the program said, “I Love the short Stories, love the sound effects and music, it’s a nice unique touch. It makes me feel as though I am actually there with the characters". Another student raved about it, she said, "This will has been my #1 Resource for improving my Spanish. 31 VERY entertaining conversations and it’s also very fun to read these stories when I am not listening.”
Eldon has released the Kindle eBook version of Gritty Spanish due to the overwhelming response he was getting from the MP3 and PDF version. To start learning Spanish in a fun and practical way, or to download a couple of samples of the conversations & transcript, visit www.grittyspanish.com.
