for spanish 3 we have to pick a country and give a 2 minute speech about it in spanish. i have finished translating the first half of my speech and i was wondering if u spanish speakers could read it and tell me if there's any parts that don't make sense or don't sound quite right, and any suggestions on how fix it to make sense or sound right. so here it is:
Mi paÃÂs es España. España es el único paÃÂs de habla español en Europa. La capital de España es Madrid. España actual del rey es rey Juan Carlos y su Primer Ministro es José Luis RodrÃÂguez Zapatero. España tiene una monarquÃÂa parlamentaria y su unidad monetaria es el euro. Uno de los interesantes lugares de interés de España está en funcionamiento de los Toros, una actividad en un festival celebrado en Pamplona, donde lo suficientemente valientes como cualquier persona tiene la oportunidad de correr junto a toros que se han deje suelto. Barcelona es uno de los mejores puntos turÃÂsticos en España, es también donde la Segrada Familia se encuentra. La Segrada Familia es una gran Iglesia católica romana que todavÃÂa se encuentra en construcción el dÃÂa de hoy, 126 años después se inició la construcción. Pablo Picasso era un pintor muy famoso que nació en su origen y de España. Varias de sus pinturas se encuentran entre las pinturas más caras del mundo.
and this is the original english version:
My country is Spain. Spain is the only Spanish speaking country in Europe. The capital of Spain is Madrid. Spain's current king is King Juan Carlos and their Prime Minister is Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero. Spain has a parliamentary monarchy and their monetary unit is the Euro. One of the interesting attractions of Spain is Running of the Bulls, an activity in a festival held in Pamplona where anyone brave enough has the chance to run alongside bulls that have been let loose. Barcelona is one of the best tourist spots in Spain, it is also where the Segrada Familia is located. The Segrada Familia is a massive Roman Catholic Church that is still under construction today, 126 years after construction originally began. Pablo Picasso was a very famous painter that was born in and originated from Spain. Several of his paintings rank among the most expensive paintings in the world.
