HANDSOME

The idea is to find an English word or phrase or idiom "related" to the word "handsome" – adjective

and

write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Example:

He is very handsome. (drop dead georgeous) idiom

He is very handsome. (Él) es muy guapo.

Photobucket

........

Pictures would be nice.

Mariana has kindly agreed to be the “official” corrector of the Spanish.

I think I can manage being the “unofficial” corrector for the English, je je

Here is the previous challenge

"was the most *attractive*..." I don't think anyone nowadays would say 'bonnie'. :P But you certainly are correct about Mr. Peck! - RosaVerde, Dec 4, 2011
Thanks Rosa , you are right - porcupine7, Dec 4, 2011
Sorry Rose verde, if you go to Newcastle northern England they say " Bonnie lass , and Bonnie lad " All the time it is very common. - ray76, Dec 4, 2011
In the US it's never used, I think you'd sound silly if you said it. So if Porcupine's trying to speak the English of Newcastle then by all means, otherwise I'd stay away from it. - RosaVerde, Dec 4, 2011
It is used in Britain - more in association with young people though - like the little boy in my post. - - ian-hill, Dec 4, 2011

I couldn't find a great translation for "suave." Anyone have any ideas? - RosaVerde, Dec 4, 2011
It also can mean " mellow " and "sweet "but " debonair " is usually how we describe someone as suave. - ray76, Dec 4, 2011
Bond is always debonair and a bon vivant. - ray76, Dec 4, 2011
Thanks, Ray, but I was looking for a better Spanish translation. Changed the sentence wording a little. - RosaVerde, Dec 4, 2011
"suave" can = "smooth" - "cool" - ian-hill, Dec 4, 2011
