Hello,

I want to be creative and expressive at the same time.. can someone help translate into Spanish this type of sentence? Something mystical!

I want to pick you up and carry you to a dream land and give a real KISS... Mua..

I don't want it to sound creepy!! haha

if you have other sexy sentences please add them also.. nothing offensive! just cute stuff..

I think the answer is Quiero recogerte y llevarte a una tierra de los sueños y darte un beso real.

However, perhaps in the English version "...dream land to give you a real kiss" sounds better. And in Spanish version "...para darte un beso real"

Moreover, I prefer "true love's kiss" to "real kiss", in Spanish "beso de amor".

You have to be really careful with the verb "coger" It's sexual in many parts of Latin America. - --Mariana--, Apr 11, 2010

Buscaba el amor verdadero hasta que te encontré... I was looking for true love until I found you.

Soñando mis sueños contigo... Dreaming my dreams with you.

Note I am not spanish so these are only guesses.

If you're not a Spanish-speaker then believe it or not you won't really have to try too hard to be cute when you speak. Aren't you attracted by the exoticism of a Spanish-speaker speaking English with an accent?

The same holds true in Latin America. Before, I used to be concerned with realistic pronunciation, and I didn't really care if my grammar was 100% correct. Now, I actually try to speak with a gringo accent, because I learned that the girls really think it's hot. Also, it has a positive affect on business.

So, it might not be what you say that's so sexy or romantic, but rather how you say it. When sweet-talking the ladies you should find it a challenge to be original--after all, your poetry must compete with the compelling imagery and gorgeously nuanced songs of the salseros and other Latin artists, not to mention the pick-up lines of the common man. But few salseros can speak Spanish with a gringo accent and therein lies your greatest advantage.

If you're a gringo, that is.

If you insist on trying to impress a Latina with your wit and romanticism, then I would strongly urge you to study the lyrics of some of the masters--Gilberto Santa Rosa, Grupo Niche, Marc Anthony, Hector Lavoe...the list could go on and on. Choose a song that strikes close to the heart of how you feel for your beloved. Then select an image or mood from the piece and use it as a model for expressing your inner self. You must take pains to change the model so that it becomes truly your own. (By the way, this is one of the paths toward true originality in general.) Then deliver your masterful line in Spanish, not making any special effort to sound Spanish and you can hardly fail.

recogerte what does it mean

why does coger have "RE" at the start?

EDIT:

I found out what is Coger.. it's truly a bad word!

Coger & Recoger are 2 different words... Re is not some sort of weird conjugation

I was in Fildalo's post but he edited it to be more polite. You'll have to put "coger" into a dictionary to get the meaning -- this is a family forum and I can't say the definition here. - --Mariana--, Apr 11, 2010
