Thanks for the correction. I'm in the process of re-learning Spanish. It
is damn difficult to find people here Denver that speak proper Spanish
unless you hang out with fairly elite crowds.
So, tell me, what would have been the correct (second person formal)
Spanish, after the sentence "well, there are some Spanish speakers on the
list.", that means "do you speak it"?
Perhaps "Lo habla Usted?" or "Usted lo habla?"
In Denver, the average Spanish speaker would merely ask "Habla?"
