Hola! So I need some verb help again for my thesis.....Is there a verb in Spanish that means "to internalize"? I cant find anything in my dictionary, but there has to be some way to say this right? Thanks again for your help!

Hey Michelita, hope your thesis is coming along well. Maybe when you are finished you can send it to me and I can puclish it here on multimadrid Big Grin

Once again, the answer here is simpler than it seems...

to internalize = "interiorizar"

Just in case I am off on my understanding of the word meaning in English, here is the REA dictionary definition...

quote:
1. tr. Incorporar a la propia manera de ser, de pensar y de sentir, ideas o acciones ajenas.
2. prnl. Entrar en uno mismo.
3. prnl. Chile. compenetrarse (identificarse con ideas y sentimientos ajenos).
Saludos,
jer...

p.d. I also double checked in my Collins Spanish-English/English-Spanish dictionary and it is there as well.

Thanks Jer....
That was what I had guessed it was, but then it did not appear in my enormous Larrousse Dictionary, so I figured it must no tmbe right. But yup, that is the word Im looking forSmiler As for publishing the thesis on Multimadrid, I think you would loose half your readers....Its not an overly fascinating topic. In fact, the most common response when I tell people what its about: "its about the evolucion of the representation and use of the city of Madrid in the novels of Galdos" is something like: "mmm, well, ok, you have fun with that, then" BUt perhaps if in inquiring minds Really want to know....

Congratulations, Michelita! That's a great achievement. Aren't you glad it is all over. It seems that while you are writing a thesis or dissertation your life is on hold somehow. You feel guilty if you take a break and have fun, but a break is what you desperately need!

I know that blessings will rain down on you for your perseverance and fortutide! :ks: :cheers:
