The idea is to find an English word (synonym –- antonym related to the word –

E V E N (adjetivo) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Examples:

Our scores are now even.

Ahora estamos igualados.

The path evens out further on.

Más allá el camino se allana.

House prices will eventually even out.

Los precios de las casas se estabilizarán con el tiempo.

Rocinha Slum

Pictures are a good idea.

This link might help you find some ideas. Scroll down to see synonyms and antonyms

We have no official corrector for this challenge yet.

I think I can manage to be the corrector for the English.

Please encourage everyone by voting for them and me.wink

This was the previous challenge.

Remember we are looking for synonyms or antonyms for E V E N.

Me parece que las mujeres buscan un hombre de buen genio en vano, pero pueden hallar un compañero apacible en un perro.

It seems to me that women seek an even tempered man in vain, but can find a gentle companion in a dog.

Thinking about this very funny picture, sometimes people who want the most from others are the ones who are willing to give the least .Giving people attract people with giving nature's and ironically the opposite seems to be equally true! - FELIZ77, May 21, 2015

Falda could you finish the sentence, please ? - FELIZ77, May 20, 2015
Incluso la extraña pareja se gustaron :) - Pablo064, May 20, 2015
See, Tiempo, how can a singular noun produce a plural verb conjugation... ? :-) - Faldaesque, May 20, 2015
I raised this before: http://www.spanishdict.com/answers/270942/la-gente-es-o-son...- - Faldaesque, May 20, 2015
Now you mention it Falda - I'm intrigue too. :) - ian-hill, May 21, 2015
Tiempo, we await thine bountiful wisdom... :-) - Faldaesque, May 21, 2015
In English a collective noun can take a plural conjugation if the members of the group are acting individually. For example: The posse saddle their horses. - AnnRon, May 21, 2015
oh I didn't see your comment sorry Falda and thanks for the irony i am not a teacher that's why I don't wanna be an oficial corrector sorry you are right that is impossible sometimes I do so many corrections that I get dizzy - Pablo064, May 21, 2015

No worries, Tiempo, thanks, & you make a magnificent corrector... ;-) - Faldaesque, May 23, 2015

Despite being young (even though she was young), she was able to beat all the other actors in the audition and the director was so impressed that he immediately gave her the part! wink

Con correcciones:

¡A pesar de ser joven, (o Aunque era joven) podía vencer a todos los otros actores en la audición y su interpretación* causó una impresión tan buena en el director que en seguida le ofreció el papel!

o actuación* del papel

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor smile
