Laura: " Wait a minute, please Bill ...let me get my breath back (recover my breath)! We've only just met and in two minutes you have already asked me to marry you and now you are toasting our future happiness together! Don't I have a say in all this?"

Laura:? ¡Espera un momento Guillermo, por favor...déjeme recobrar el aliento! ¡Acabamos de conocernos y ya en dos minutos me ha pedido la mano en matrimonio y ahora estás brindando nuestra felicidad juntos! ¿no tengo ni voz ni voto en este asunto!

Answer 3

Tengo este concepto para una película, se llama "día de la marmota". No, nadie sería verlo la miraría.

I have this concept for a movie, it's called "Groundhog's day". Nah, nobody would watch it.

Lol You 'd be surprised ...they would watch it over and over and over again I think they call it the déjà vu experience lol - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

Lol..and lol again.. - annierats, Jan 1, 2016

..nadie la miraría.. ;) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

You would be surprised what people here watch it is crazy. :) - Nickelbackfan1, Jan 2, 2016

Gracias, amigos. - jrschenk, Jan 2, 2016

Pablo, so often your corrections make what was difficult seem easy. Thanks. - jrschenk, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 4

Me gustaría hacer un brindis por el nuevo año, pero me siento como si estuviera atrapada en un bucle de constante repetición.

I would like to make a toast to the new year, but I feel as if I'm caught in an ever-repeating loop.

:) - jrschenk, Jan 1, 2016

Muy buenos Ann very great answer mate. :) - Nickelbackfan1, Jan 2, 2016

..si estuviera atrapada.. ;) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

Gracias, Pablo, por tu ayuda y por tu paciencia. - AnnRon, Jan 2, 2016

:) - FELIZ77, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 5

I guess their New Year's Resolution was to drink less... they haven't taken a sip yet.

Supongo que su resolución de año nuevo fue beber menos... todavía no han bebido sorbos.

:D - jrschenk, Jan 1, 2016

Katy, I would say: Todavía no han tomado un sorbo = They haven't taken a sip yet! - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

Or Todavía no han tomado/ bebido nada = They haven't had (drunk) anything yet ! - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

I also think that you need the preterite (simple past) fue instead of era ( imperfect) The assumption in your sentence is that they have already made the resolution (completed action ) but they have not completed carrying out thé résolution.It It also - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

sounds better , in my humble opinion with fue but I could be mistaken - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

@ Feliz: Beber a sorbos works fine. Possibly supongo might be followed by the subjunctive, fuera/fuese, but I'm by no means certain. - annierats, Jan 1, 2016

Annie, yes I am not so much disputing that part but the positioning (Word order) of the negative in relation to the word todavía (still) and the tense in the Spanish does not match the English tense in Katy's sentence: They still haven't (past) - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

Supongo doesn't necessarily require the subjunctive. As to the rest I would say. "Todavía no han bebido a sorbos." - Daniela2041, Jan 2, 2016

yes '..nuevo 'fue' beber..' :) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

Thanks everyone. - katydew, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 6

A toast to the new year hopefully it is a lot better then the last year we had. but do not spill this wine it is to expensive to be wasted.

Un brindis por el año nuevo que esperemos sea mejor que el pasado año que tuvimos . Pero no derrame este vino es demasiado caro para ser desperdiciado.

:) - jrschenk, Jan 1, 2016

I did not know what the movie was about but I bet it is a great movie, I will have to try it sometime soon. :) - Nickelbackfan1, Jan 1, 2016

It's on TV quite a lot Nick. Just look on the movie stations or rent it from the library. It's a classic. - sanlee, Jan 1, 2016

Is it a in both Spanish and English. - Nickelbackfan1, Jan 2, 2016

..nuevo que esperemos sea mejor que el pasado año que tuvimos..*too..es demasiado caro para ser desperdiciado.. ;) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

Gracias Pablo. :) - Nickelbackfan1, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 7

No sé de otras cosas, pero siempre bebo contigo.

I don’t know about other things, but I will drink with you always.

:) - jrschenk, Jan 1, 2016

Raj, I would suggest the present indicative for repeated actions "pero siempre bebo contigo ":) - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

I have checked the notes my native Spanish teacher gave me for present indicative.She wrote: Common shares When an action is repeated in the present, past and future, usually the present tense is used to describe it. Examples: - Siempre leo en voz alta. - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

Nunca come verduras. - No estudia en la biblioteca si no en su casa. Iam sure that the construction "ir a " does not refer to repeated actions but simply single completed actions! I hope this helps :) - FELIZ77, Jan 1, 2016

Gracias, Feliz :) - Raja-jani, Jan 1, 2016

:) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

You arew elcome, Raj :) - FELIZ77, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 8

Él pensando:¿ Y cuanto necesita esta chica para llevarla a la cama?

Ella, pensando: Y ¿como voy a huir de este monstruo mayor?

Ambos , en voz alta: ' ¡Feliz año!

He, thinking: And how much will she need before I can get her into bed?

She, thinking: And how will I be able to escape from this ageing monster?

Both together, aloud: '' Happy New Year!''

:) - Pablo064, Jan 2, 2016

Gracias Pablo! - annierats, Jan 2, 2016

Answer 12

Estás a salvo conmigo cariño , rohypnol todavía no es popular .

You're safe with me sweetheart, "Rohypnol " is not popular yet.

I have never heard of "Rohypnol", so you're right. It is not popular. Sheesh! "todavía" is better than "aún" here. - Daniela2041, Jan 2, 2016

I'm guessing he wouldn't have needed it. ;) - jrschenk, Jan 2, 2016

Daniela, having read your "todavía" is better than "aún" comment to Ray, I waded through a number of old posts on this topic--still confused. I would be incredibly grateful for your insight on this; I will post a question anew. - jrschenk, Jan 2, 2016
