The girl is kicking the ball?

The girl is kicking the ball = La chica patea la pelota
I think that this thread is an excellent example of why the administrators of this website should come up with a different system for dealing with people who ask for simple translations.
One cannot force someone to learn Spanish. And people who wish to learn Spanish will not be hindered in their efforts should they receive the occasional quick translation answer from people at this forum.
This is likely this person's first experience with this forum, instead of an answer they received chastisement. What is accomplished by this? What is wrong with providing the translation requested? We don't have to answer such questions, but if we have energy and desire to do so, what is wrong with it? How is that different than providing a translation tool? To me, it is better to leave the question unanswered than to provide chastisement to newcomers.
Better would be to provide the translation along with a friendly reminder of the existence of as well as a link to a translation tool and dictionary...a button could be added to the editor that would automatically insert the required text and links for such a reminder.
I think it is running people off when you respond to newcomers this way, which I doubt is truly a goal of the people involved in administering the site.
That's my two cents.
Oh! I know, I know! But you have to take a shot at it first.
Pelota y balon son correcto. Y bola es tambien. Yo diria "La chica esta dando la pelota una patada".
pelota = baseball and bola = ball (anykind) so you would say la chica esta pateando bola! i belive this is the CORRECT answer not pelota
he question is, what is the meaning of each of the following terms gramatically speaking,......................... Atributo.......complemento directo...........complemento inderecto......... complemento circunstancial................................coplemento preposicional.......complemento predicativo.............................
Here is what I understand at least the first term,but please correct me if an wrong atributo is a sustantive or a name or pronoun that identifies another substantive using the verb "to be"as in My father was a boxing coach.

Atributo termino que identifica a otro mediate el vrbo ser or estar.My father was a entrenador de boxeo.
The girl is kicking the ball = La chica patea la pelota
That is the girl kicks the ball.
Wouldn't it be... La chica está pateando la pelota.
Also, couldn't you say...
La chica está dando patadas a la pelota.
I don't know,I'm just a rooke (beignner).
Atributo.......complemento directo...........complemento inderecto......... complemento circunstancial................................coplemento preposicional.......complemento predicativo.............................
What is the question? Need translating?
Like soldiers sprinkled in a field without any organization, words strewn on a sheet of paper are useless without any order being imposed.
Me tarzan, you Jane makes sense but it is not expressing anything too hard to grasp.
In a Spanish sentence there are verb complements and subjects complements. Verb complements are I need help translating these into English
Atributo.......complemento directo...........complemento inderecto......... complemento circunstancial................................coplemento preposicional.......complemento predicativo.............................

I think that a lot of people are under the impression that you wanted to do your homework on the cheap side. If that is ok with you then it is ok with me.
Who knows why, but if you are a young student and you think that there is no need for you to learn about Spanish then that is ok too. It does not really matter whether you learn another language. But let me tell you this; the important thing is that by studying a new skill you learn this:
- How to think better.
- discipline
- Your horizons are enlarged
- The knowledge that you can do what you aim for.
Here is a hint,In your sentence there are three important words,girl, kicking and ball. you can look them up in a English /Spanish dictionary. Or you can use the dictionary on this site.
Once you find the Spanish definition of theses three words.Ask this question on this site, "How can I make this three words into a sentence"?
I don't know if this will work but at least you are trying to learn or learning how to learn.
Good luck, my friend.
PS. write the three words in Spanish, not English.
I agree with Gus...none of us here got where we are by someone else telling us what to say. You have to puzzle it out. Post it. Then everyone can tell you what they think about the topic. I'm always telling people...try it...post it...think on it. That is the way to learn. I can tell you how to say it, but what will you have learned? Think on it, post it, and don't be afraid someone will laugh...I probably will laugh at you, but I will always vote you and pat you on the back for your effort.
Hmm, I would say it...trying myself first?
