votes

In 1921 Hermann Rorschach created the inkblot test as a method of psychological analysis. Patients looked at random inkblots and said the first thing that came to mind. The information was use to develop a psychological diagnosis.

For 2010 I would like to offer The Rorschach Test in Spanish Game as a method of psychological entertainment and Spanish language inspiration. The game is as follows:

Post your “interpretation” to the picture both in Spanish and English and vote for the ones you like. The picture will remain for three days after which the best answer will be chosen based on the most number of votes as well as the language correctness.

I see a woman lying on a red towel at the beach. Her hair is above her. Her hands are behind her head. She has very saggy boobs in a blue bikini top. (I had to look that sentence up in the translator! Fun vocab. lesson.) She wears an orange necklace.


Veo una mujer acostando en una toalla roja en la playa. Su cabelo esta encima su cabeza. Su mano esta detrás de cabeza. Ella tiene senos muy caídos en un bikini azul. Ella usando un collar naranjo.

Un hombre de aspecto muy raro con un sombrero de la pagoda que está siendo atacado por dos demonios que se balancean porras acolchadas y que tienen los monos de vuelos en sus espaldas.

A very strange looking man wearing a pagoda hat that is being attacked by two demons that are swinging padded batons and that have flying monkeys on their backs.

Por favor, corrija mi español, esta frase era muy extraño para traducir.

Please, correct my Spanish, this sentence was very strange to translate.

Un calidoscopio. Este dejaba la mente en blanco. Claro, parece que haya animales y criaturas marinas raros. Pero mi primera impresión fue la palabra "calidoscopio." (Ahora estoy curioso ver que han dicho los demás.)

A Kaleidoscope. My mind went blank for this one. Sure there appear to be strange animals and sea creatures in there. But my first impression was the word 'kaleidoscope'. (Now I'm curious to see what the others have said.) smile

There's a grey lobster at the top, holding on to two large sea horses who are sucking on little blue fish. Two large blue crabs are going to attack the sea horses because they are eating all the small sea creatures.
