Thanks for the A2A!

Step 0: Plug the guitar into the amp. At this point, don’t use any effects and keep the volume low. That lets you hear when you’re playing notes cleanly and when you need to correct your fingering to get the best tone.

Step 1: Learn to tune it. Start without an electronic tuner so you learn how the pitch of one string relates to the next. Then use the electronic tuner.

Step 2: On each string in turn, learn to fret a note without buzzing or excess pressure.

Step 3: Learn a few chords. Learn how to finger them and practice getting clean notes across the fingerboard. Start with G major, C major, and D major. Next add A major, E minor, A minor, D minor.

Step 4: Learn to hold the pick if you’re going to use one. Not everyone does. The point of the pick should be like an extension of your index finger. Hold it between your thumb and index finger. Loosen your grip until the pick falls out of your hand when plucking a string, then tighten your grip a tiny bit. That’s how hard you want to hold it.

Step 5: Learn a few scales, again practicing picking cleanly. Use the same keys as in Step 3.

Step 6: Practice switching from one chord to another until you can do it in time to the song. Start with a good two chord song. I recommend Hank Williams’ “Jambalaya”. Try it in the key of G using the G major and D major, then in the key of C using C major and G major.

Be patient. Play along with recordings. Use a metronome to ensure you can play with good timing. Recording yourself on your computer, tablet or smartphone and listening back will give you valuable insight into your timing and the cleanliness of your fretting and picking. Don’t be discouraged if you sound awful at first - everyone does!

At some point you can start learning about the other half of your instrument - the signal chain. Experiment with the tone controls on your guitar and your amp to see how they change the clean sound. Explore one effect at a time. (I’d go for EQ, chorus, tremolo, delay and reverb first, then overdrive, fuzz, and distortion, then phasing or flanging. Lastly, compression.) Then try them in combination. This journey of discovery will never end.

Three things that will keep you progressing: Have the guitar handy so you can pick it up and play in idle moments. Find others to play with who are just a bit better at it than you are. And HAVE FUN!

Necesito un texto no literario con lenguaje positivo y uno texto literario con lenguaje negativo
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Texto no literario con lenguaje positivo:

El Ministerio de Agricultura informa que el sector agropecuario del país cerró el primer semestre del año con salud positiva, elevando el PIB nacional en 0,4%. Este es un gran paso adelante para la economía nacional y se convertirá en mejoras socioeconómicas y más oportunidades laborales para toda la población.

Texto literario con lenguaje negativo:

Ve mi tristeza y dile

Que sin ella no puede ser

Dile, en una oración, que regrese

Porque ya no puedo sufrir

(Basta de añoranza - Vinício de Moraes)

Explanation:

Un texto tiene un lenguaje positivo cuando transmite buena información, lo que hace que el lector se sienta bien y feliz. El texto con lenguaje negativo, en cambio, pretende transmitir información triste y arrepentida que despierta sentimientos negativos en el lector.

También debemos entender que un texto no literario es el texto que retrata una situación como realmente es, es decir, es un texto que se desarrolla en el mundo real y contiene situaciones que no fueron creadas por el autor, pero que realmente sucedieron. Literario, en cambio, es el texto que narra una situación creada por alguien y puede ser una novela, una poesía, una prosa, entre otras.
