Hello Everybody! Welcome to the Picture of the Day!

This is a game where we can practice our Spanish and English, but still have fun at the same time!

The rules are very simple and remain more or less exactly as RelaxingCup designed them and H C A student continued.

  • Post your comments/titles/captions to this picture (both in Spanish and English) and vote for the responses you like. The best answer will be chosen soon on the basis of the greatest number of votes as well as the language accuracy.

  • Pon tu comentario/ título/ pie de foto a esta imagen (ambos en español y inglés) y vota por las respuestas que te gusten. La mejor respuesta será seleccionada mañana, tanto por la cantidad de votos como por la corrección en el uso del idioma.

  • Please, give everyone a chance and only post more or less one caption and no photos.

  • Por favor, deja que todos tengan una oportunidad y pon más o menos una respuesta, sin fotos. .

Please encourage everyone with a vote. smile

. .Please help each other with your English/Spanish sentences. And above all, have fun!

Hi Sandy ,I remember that your old cat used to be tearing up things and making noises all the time whilst we were skyping years ago . - ray76, Jun 14, 2015
Jejejejej, That's right. And she knocked things off the shelves when she wanted attention. - sanlee, Jun 14, 2015

Yes, Beba, It makes sense. Where is the yellow canary? If they have not eaten it. - sanlee, Jun 13, 2015
Where was the yellow canary...lf they had eaten it. I think yours makes perfect sense in English and Spanish. - sanlee, Jun 13, 2015

Mi gato prefiere quedarse en hoteles de 5 estrellas, no le gusta dormir en hostales donde uno tenga que compartir la cama con qualquier gato de la calle.

My cat prefers to stay in 5-star hotels, not in hostels where you may have to share your bed with any old cat off the street.

Es loable si alguien quiera los animales, pero lo que es demasiado es demasiado.

It is laudable if someone likes the animals, but what is too much is too much.

Hey, who let you into my daughter's house? ¡Oye! ¿Quién te deja entrar a la casa de mi hija?

updated Jun 24, 2015
posted by gringojrf
:-)) - Soybeba, Jun 13, 2015
Shouldn't it be , ¿Quién te dejó entrar etc... because the word 'let' (allowED) you to enter in the English is simple past tense / preterito simple de indicativo ? - FELIZ77, Jun 13, 2015
Sí, si fuera allowed=dejó (pretérito simple del indicativo). Pero si en una conversación informal podría usarse el presente (deja) si se refiere a un hecho reiterado (repetitivo). (Pregunta inteligente). :-)) - Soybeba, Jun 13, 2015
¡Muchas gracias por tu explicación, Soy. también, he recibido una respuesta inteligente! ;) - FELIZ77, Jun 13, 2015

Aparentemente hay muchos gatos. Craso error. Es un restaurante para felinos y es la hora de comer. Todo normal. Aparently there are many cats. Great mistake. It's is a restaurant for felines and now it's the lunch's hour. All normal.

La única cosa que le dije fue, "Aquí, gatito, gatito, gatito", y todos estos gatos vinieron.

The only thing I said was, "Here, kitty, kitty, kitty", and all these cats came.
