Spanish level after one year in Argentina?
Hello,
I was hoping i could get some good answers.
I have a job starting in Buenos Aires soon, lasting one year. I have studied spanish on and off for four years (2 years in school, 2 years evening classes). I consider myself decent level yet when i do online assessment tests i generally come out at intermediate(lower) level. Pretty dissapointing but there we go.
My job will be only partly talking in spanish, in the office, needing enough to get by. Mostly i will be talking in english to british clients.
However, i will be likely to have an argentinian girlfriend i have met out there before.
After one year of living in buenos aires, with an ok standard to begin with, what sort of level do you imagine i will have by the end? in general i am fairly good with languages. Any advice welcome….!

Will I find myself in jail because there are some unusual laws that I won’t expect? What kind of local customs might I find interesting? Is the political climate there pretty stable? I’d be particularly interested in hearing from people who are actually from there or who have lived there for an extended period for business.

I have a russian blue cat, and it sometimes is leaving a mess on my couch, even though it has a clean litter box. As I mentioned it happens once in a few days. I heard that there is a spray which you can spray on yor litter box and the cat will do its business there, but in my stituation I am looking for a spray which I could spray on my couch to prevent my cat from leaving a mess there.
