Thanks for doing this RC. : ) - Ranman, Dec 20, 2013

muchas gracias - Aranjuez12, Dec 20, 2013

Why cannot I see the image? is it telling me something , ¿ Hay un mal olor acerca de mi? - ray76, Dec 20, 2013

Hi Ray, now you should see the picture. - RelaxingCup, Dec 20, 2013

The picture is still offline. Happened to me yesterday due to a problem with the site where the picture is hosted. - dennywells, Dec 20, 2013

Thanks for the feedback. I re-uploaded the picture to another hosting and added a link. - RelaxingCup, Dec 20, 2013

@ R C all is forgiven , come back home the light is in the window. Thanks mate. - ray76, Dec 20, 2013

Thanks RC and Annie - pmikan-pam, Dec 20, 2013

Answer 1

No ver ningún mal,no oír ningún mal, no hablar ningún mal ,pero beban. See no evil,hear no evil,speak no evil,but drink up.

Jajajaja - rac1, Dec 20, 2013

What's in that stuff? - pmikan-pam, Dec 20, 2013

"ver - oír - hablar/decir". Better use infinitives for all three. :D Very good! - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Thank you. - heliotropeman, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 2

Monkey hot tub or Mama's cooking pot - depends on who is looking.

Jacuzzi de monos u olla de mamá - depende de quien esté mirando.

I love that idea...hot tub. - rac1, Dec 20, 2013

Typo: "monos u olla de mamá", conjunction "o" before a word starting with "o" turns into "u". + Depende que quién esté mirando. (I would use subjunctive here). Un saludo. - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Thanks RC. Sorry it took so long, but I haven't been in the same place for more than a few days since mid December. I appreciate the input. - katydew, Dec 27, 2013

Answer 3

Cómo preparar estofado de mono: En primer lugar, pon tres monos en una olla y llena hasta el borde con agua fresca...

How to make monkey stew: Firstly, put three monkeys in a pot and fill to the brim with cool water...

Por favor, corrijan mi español!

Does it need a lot of pepper and salt? - annierats, Dec 20, 2013

Perfect :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 4

Remember the scene from Indiana Jones And The Temple of Doom with the monkey brains? This is the deleted scene from the kitchen.

Recuerdas la escena de Indiana Jones And The Temple of Doom con el mono cerebros? Esta es la escena eliminada de la cocina.

Yuk! Good one, I mean the stew. - annierats, Dec 20, 2013

If you want to translate the title "Indiana Jones y el Templo Maldito" + "con los sesos de mono?". Te rest is correct. Saludos :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Yeah, but Temple of Doom sounds way more menacing. Templo Maldito almost sounds cute. :) - vevans, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 5

Oops lo siento. no tuve la intención para mear en el agua.

Oops, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pee in the water.

Lol - rac1, Dec 20, 2013

"La intención de..". "Mear" is quite vulgar (in Spain at least). You can use: "hacer pis". So: "No tuve la intención de hacer pis en el agua" :D - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 6

Two monkeys and a monkey.

Dos monos y un mono.

A ver, un momento mientras que piense yo. ¿Tres monos? :) - dennywells, Dec 20, 2013

Absoluto... - rac1, Dec 20, 2013

Jeje - pmikan-pam, Dec 20, 2013

:D - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 7

¡Tío! Se me han caído las llaves. Puedes buscarlas?

Dude! I dropped my keys. Can you look for them?

"Se me han caído" since "llaves" is plural. Very funny :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Thank you. - deedeegill72, Dec 22, 2013

Answer 8

Este material está excelente... ¡Quiero decir divino! ¡Tocar, beber, bañarse!

This stuff is excellent... I mean heavenly! Touch, drink, bathe!

I would use "material". Otherwise is perfect :D - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Gracias, RC. - Raja-jani, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 9

This is only the prequel of twelve monkeys, a hot bath is not going to be a secret for ever.

Esta es solamente la precuela de doce monos, una baño caliente no va a ser un secreto para siempre.

"Bañera caliente (bathtub)" or "baño caliente (bath)" :D - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 10

¡Esto es bueno Mejor imposible como se pone !

This is as good as it gets !

"Mejor Imposible" ;) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Thanks R C , can i take it that" Mejor imposible" is a phrase used which means -" as good as it gets " ? - ray76, Dec 21, 2013

That's it Ray. Remember the movie starring Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt? It was translated here as "Mejor Imposible". You can perfectly say: "Esto es mejor imposible" meaning 'there is no better than this' :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 11

Sabemos que dicen "aunque la mona se vista de seda, mona se queda", pero mira, somos bellas bañistas.

We know they say "even if a monkey dresses itself in silk, it's still a monkey", but look, we're bathing beauties.

Perfect :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 12

Nosotros tenemos sed para agua como nosotros tenemos hambre para bananas.

We are thirsty for water like we are hungry for bananas.

"Nosotros estamos sedientos de agua" + "como" or "de la misma manera que"+ "tenemos hambre de plátanos." Saludos. - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 13

On the third day or Christmas my true love sent to me, three monkeys in a water-tub.

El tercer día de Navidad, mi amor me mandó tres monitos en un cubo de agua.

One often gets rather random presents at this time of year.. - annierats, Dec 20, 2013

That actually fits the song fairly well. - dennywells, Dec 21, 2013

English typo: "day of". The Spanish is perfect :) - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013

Answer 14

We couldn't find a cold shower will this work? No hemos podido encontrar una ducha fría. ¿Este trabajo?

I think 'work' should be "valer" in this context. "¿Valdrá esto?", meaning "will this be a proper subtitute of a cold shower" (more or less) :P - RelaxingCup, Dec 21, 2013
