file uploading

Hi everyone,

I´m writing this post to explain how to upload files and put them for downloading.

As blogger, which is the content manager of this blog, doesn´t allow file uploading, at least not this type of file, all you have to do is upload the required file to a web host (mediafire, rapidshare) and then paste the given url in the post by clicking on the hyperlink control above. remember you need to be in html view.

there´s an example here with a file Adela wanted to upload.

Dudas del 10 de enero

Para volver a revivir el blog, aquí os pongo algunas respuestas a las dudas que teníamos hoy:

- Parece que language lo aplican tanto a lengua como a lenguaje. Linguistics es el término que se refiere al estudio de la lengua.

- Lo más parecido a culto que he encontrado en el diccionario ha sido educated.

- Y en cuanto a grifo, me sale tap, siendo "abrir el grifo" = "to turn the tap on" y "cerrar el grifo" = "to turn the tap off"
