Fun in Spanish with English subtitles

Tuesday, November 22, 2005 4:39 AM

In an attempt to keep my son from wrecking the show his daddy is recording, I played "Out of Gas" with the Spanish audio and English subtitles. See, my dear husband has the TV routed through the VCR, so you can't change the channel without changing it on the VCR. And my boy wanted to watch TV.

The Spanish Mal I think was the closest to the real actor when compared to all the other voices and their counterparts, although to be fair I wasn't paying close attention, because taking care of a 2-year old toward bedtimes takes my attention away from the story a bit.

Why did I choose the Spanish audio? I'm trying to expose my son to the Spanish language, since all he hears is English (and some Japanese from my Inuyasha theme songs.) I'm hoping he can learn a second language while he's still young, but I may be hoping for too much.
