Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the teacher keep repeating: "Spanish isn't English and English isn't Spanish!"?

FAQ
Because it's true! Spanish and English developed from different areas of the world and they are quite different. Many students think that Spanish is just English with funny words. Students often become frustrated when they refuse to accept the idea that Spanish often expresses itself in a way that is not only foreign in the words it uses, but in the ideas behind it. Example: I like to eat. = Me gusta comer. (Eating pleases me.)

El Laberinto del Fauno literally translated means The Labyrinth of the Faun. Since in English faun (a satyr) and fawn (a baby deer) are both pronounced the same, it was believed that there would be some confusion so the English title is Pan's Labyrinth even though the faun is not the god Pan. The fact the Faun is not Pan is made clear by director, Guillermo del Toro in the special features, as he says he did not want the sexual god Pan to be a character opposite a young girl.
