What we’re about
Idiolect has been my favourite word ever since I discovered it while doing my master’s in Linguistics. In simple terms, it’s a dialect of an individual. Each one of us speaks in a unique way because we’ve all had different experiences. Even twins develop their own ways of expressing themselves! We all have our own linguistic fingerprint -- isn’t that magical?
I’ve decided to start this group to help people find their Spanish fingerprint -- through classes, board game nights, poetry nights, swearword courses, and other events.
Let’s go on a quest and find your Spanish treasure!
BIG NEWS: I've got myself a website!!

In the meantime, feel free to join Nuggets de español!
But wait, what are Nuggets de español?
Good question! It is a WhatsApp group in which I drop little nuggets about the Spanish language -- anything from tricky verbs and pronunciation tips to fun expressions and even a bit of etymology. It's completely free and will forever be free.
Most of the time I focus on Spanish from Spain, and sometimes I zoom in on how it’s spoken here in Valencia.
I used to share the link here but I got a lot of bots joining, so if you'd like to join, send me a message via WhatsApp and I'll add you manually.
A bit about me: I’m Nina, totally obsessed with all things language. I love teaching (pretty much anything, really, even handstands 😄). At my last job, I managed a small language school and taught Spanish. I also had a group like this for my students, which was perfect for channeling my constant “Did you know…?” moments without annoying my friends 😂 When I left that job, I really missed having that space, so I started this group!

Exclusive Semi-Class: Speak Spanish, Play Catan
New ziryab, Barón de san perrillo 26, Valencia, ESThis course is a multilevel Spanish class: All levels are welcome and can enjoy it!
Do you love playing board games? Do you want to join Spanish-speaking activities and improve your Spanish, but don’t feel confident stepping outside and immersing yourself in the unpredictability?
My name is Nina, and I’m here to help!
I’m a Spanish teacher and a language learner myself, and I am well aware of how important it is to practice a language outside the classroom to become fully comfortable speaking it. However, it can also be intimidating to take that step.
I have designed this multilevel semi-class to help you cross the bridge from classroom Spanish to real-world Spanish.
This class will equip you with all the vocabulary you might need to play board games in Spanish, with special attention paid to Catan, as it is a game we all love to play.
The structure of this semi-class:
- The actual class, where we learn and practice all the vocabulary you might need (about 40 minutes).
- Playing Catan in Spanish 100% of the time, with my guidance in case you get stuck or can’t remember a word.
You get all this knowledge and a fun-filled night for only €10!
Max number of participants: 8
Time: Friday, January 16, 7:00 pm
Location: Ziryab, Benimaclet, Valencia
Price: €10
We will meet at a board game café in Benimaclet called New Ziryab – you’re going to love it!
