Hola RC:) - Jraider, Oct 12, 2013

Hola. Actually, I´ve long wondered how to say the title phrase in Spanish, given that the adjective hungry is not used in Spanish. How would one express ¨I´m getting hungry¨ en español? - rogspax, Oct 12, 2013

Hola Jraider and rogs! Perdonad la demora! - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

It's true. "Hambiento" is not used for "I'm getting hungry". I would say: "Me está entrando hambre" or "Estoy empezando a tener hambre". As you know, "tener hambre" is 'to be hungry' and "Me está entrando" is used to express that you are starting.. - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

... starting to feel something. Like "Me está entrando hambre" or "Me está entrando un poco de miedo". - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

You can also say ," I am famished" for I am hungry. - ray76, Oct 13, 2013

Thanks RC. Somehow I´d missed learning ¨me está entrando¨ so that is all new (and valuable) for me. Thanks! - rogspax, Oct 13, 2013

Answer 1

I´d like to invite you for dinner. No need to bring anything. Come as you are.

Quiero invitarle a una cena. No necesita traer nada. Venga tal como es.

Best one so far. - Notedstrangeperson, Oct 12, 2013

It's "No necesita traer nada" don't ask me why but we use "nada" like this. Plus: "invitarle" and "necesita" are for "usted", then you should use "venga tal como es (usted)" instead of "ven tal como eres". - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Or, if you want, you can put the first two clauses into informal: "invitarte" and "no necesitas traer nada". - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Thanks RC. I head to search quite a bit to figure out ¨come as you are¨ and then I didn´t even think, once finding something suitable, that the formalness didn´t match. I´ll fix it up. Gracias. - rogspax, Oct 13, 2013

And I definitlely shouldn´t have missed the double negative. I notice that I make more mistakes when writing the English first like that, and less when I just do the Spanish first, which I prefer (but couldn´t here, because I lacked ¨come as you are¨) - rogspax, Oct 13, 2013

I totally agree. It happens the same to me: less mistakes if I use my English first (little but confident) and then I translate into Spanish. Easy peasy. :D - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Congratulations! - pmikan-pam, Oct 16, 2013

Answer 2

I prefer to eat the brains of people who know the subjunctive.

Prefiero comer los cerebros de gente quien sabe el subjuntivo.

I'm safe!!!! - Jraider, Oct 12, 2013

Darn, you beat me to it. My ignorance may be a protective evolutionary trait. Who knew? - rogspax, Oct 12, 2013

Jajajaja I would say "de gente que se sabe el subjuntivo" or "de gente que sabe usar el subjuntivo". - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Good one: ) - Ranman, Oct 13, 2013

I can relate Jeje - pmikan-pam, Oct 14, 2013

Answer 3

¿Hígado con habas otra vez? ... No. Quisiera cordero. Muy poco hecho.

Liver with flava beans again? No. I would like lamb. Extra rare.

"¿Hígado con habas otra vez?" - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Good one (minus the beans in Spanish) ;) - rogspax, Oct 13, 2013

Answer 4

Tell me, have the lambs stopped screaming?

¿Dígame, han dejado de gritar los corderos?

"¿han dejado de gritar los corderos?" - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Thanks Dude: ) - Ranman, Oct 13, 2013

Tata - rac1, Oct 13, 2013

Verry good Ranman - pmikan-pam, Oct 14, 2013

Answer 5

Most people do not like liver, but I think it's yummy.

La mayoría de gente no le gusta el hígado, pero creo que es deliícioso.

"A la mayoría de gente no lo gusta el hígado, pero yo creo que es delicioso" :D - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Yo también , me gusta mucho. - ray76, Oct 13, 2013

With onions my favorite yummy - pmikan-pam, Oct 14, 2013

Answer 6

Let's split the tasks work. You bring something to eat and I'll cook it.
Dividamos las tareas. Tú trae algo de comer y yo lo cocinaré.

Good one. In general, I think we´re much more likely to say ¨spit the work¨ or ¨divide the labor¨ (though spit the tasks is of course technically totally correct) - rogspax, Oct 13, 2013

jajajajaja - rac1, Oct 13, 2013

Thanks - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

But he Likes to bring the food Jeje - pmikan-pam, Oct 14, 2013

Answer 7

You see, the brain itself feels no pain if that concerns you.

Ves, el mismo cerebro no siente dolor, si eso te interesa.

..and you can eat it with a spoon! - Jraider, Oct 12, 2013

"Verás, el cerebro en sí no siente dolor, si eso te preocupa" Good one! And creepy! jejeje - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Answer 8

Usted tiene un gran corazón , compártalo conmigo , y quizás un poco de salsa de sangre.

Pero yo bromeo,prefiero salsa de tomate.

You have a big heart , share it with me , and maybe some blood sauce.

But I joke , I prefer tomato ketchup.

"compártalo conmigo, y quizás un poco de salsa de sangre." Plus "Pero yo bromeo" or "Pero estoy de broma". - RelaxingCup, Oct 13, 2013

Lol - rac1, Oct 13, 2013

Thenk you RelaxingCup for "Everything" that you do for us all. - ray76, Oct 13, 2013

Hola rac, gracias. - ray76, Oct 13, 2013

Ketchup makes everything taste better. - pmikan-pam, Oct 14, 2013
