Nada es mejor que un sábado por la noche con los chicos.

Nothing is better than Saturday night with the guys .

• I'd use "un sábado", "el sábado" doesn't sound wrong, but I'd rather use "un" - Tonyriva Oct 25, 2010

Answer 3

Dad, I lost the diaper money!

¡Papá, he perdido el dinero de los pañales!.

• it's "papá"... and I'd say "de los pañales" if you meant "the money for the diapers" or "el dinero que traía en el pañal", if you meant "the money I was carrying on my diaper" - Tonyriva Oct 25, 2010
• I want to say "diaper money" in the say way one would say "rent money" - Brynleigh Oct 25, 2010
• yep... it should be "de los pañales"... it's not that "del pañal" it's wrong, I think it has to do with the fact that you don't usually buy 1 diaper - Tonyriva Oct 25, 2010
• Gracias, Tony:) - Brynleigh Oct 25, 2010
• By the way, I suppose it was just a typo, but if you put a comma after 'Papá', you don't have to capitalize 'He'. - bill1111 Oct 25, 2010

¡Ay, Dios mío!¿Qué está pasando aquí? Esta es una fiesta de té, no una Oktoberfest!

• jajajaja... that's really funny - Tonyriva Oct 25, 2010
• Gracias,Tonyriva! - sanlee Oct 25, 2010
• jejeje... Good one Sandy!!! - Vaanz Oct 25, 2010
• Thanks, Vaanz - sanlee Oct 25, 2010
• "Oktoberfest". And even though what you wrote is fine, it sounds more idiomatic to skip the second "es": "de té, no una Oktoberfest!" - bill1111 Oct 25, 2010

Un George Thorogood joven: Quiero un bourbon, un escocés, y una cerveza.

Es una lástima que tanta gente críe a sus niños así. It's a shame so many people raise their kids like this.

• a sus niños - Tonyriva Oct 25, 2010

Answer 8

Con tanto abuso que hay contra los niños y con tanta imbecilidad que hay entre los adultos de la sociedad moderna, ojalá que esta foto sea sólo "photoshop" y no auténtica.

With so much abuse that there is against children and with so much imbecility that there is among the adults of modern society, I hope this photo is only "photoshop" and not authentic.

• "entre los adultos *en* la sociedad moderna" would sound a bit better. Also, "ojalá" is not commonly seen except as the very first word in a sentence. I'd probably say ".. moderna, espero que .." instead. - bill1111 Oct 25, 2010

Answer 11

Oye, mientras que usted está recibiendo mi cerveza, me conseguir algunos cigarros más también!

Hey, while you're getting my beer, get me some more cigars too!

• My version: "Oye, ya que vas a coger mi cerveza, ¡consígueme unos cuantos puros más también!" Cigar=puro , Cigarrette = cigarro, cigarrillo - bill1111 Oct 25, 2010
• .. and I just realized "coger" is a poor choice of a verb outside Spain. You would probably say "recoger" or something :) - bill1111 Oct 25, 2010
