AI Thread Summary
A user seeks resources for Spanish science vocabulary and a Spanish-English physics book but has only found a medical book. They express challenges in understanding classes due to limited English proficiency after moving to Argentina from a French-speaking country. Despite these difficulties, they have managed to learn in Spanish without translating, using Wikipedia as a resource for terminology. They recommend taking English courses tailored to the learner's level for better understanding and progress. Additionally, they suggest the Real Academia Española dictionary as a top resource for Spanish vocabulary, although they note its high cost.

Anyway, a decent Spanish dictionary would be the dictionary of the Real Academia Española. I don't own it myself (too expensive), but I believe with no doubt that it's the best one in Spanish.
 
Just ONCE, I wanted to see a post titled Status Update that was not a blatant, annoying spam post by a new member. So here it is. Today was a good day here in Northern Wisconsin. Fall colors are here, no mosquitos, no deer flies, and mild temperature, so my morning run was unusually nice. Only two meetings today, and both went well. The deer that was road killed just down the road two weeks ago is now fully decomposed, so no more smell. Somebody has a spike buck skull for their...
