filed for divorce
I have had a look at this exercise and I really could not find a flaw in any of the transltions.
I have voted on the ones with the above, I think to "present divorce papers" does sound somewhat off...
Some questions arose:
asesor
is the same as consejero, that is in this case: lawyers
Literally, her legal adviser.
Se apuntó que la mayor preocupación del «showman» es «el bienestar de los dos hijos que nacieron de este
Se apuntó: it was said, it has been mentioned
Después de que los abogados de King presentaran
Remember, después de que...triggers the subjunctive
Gracias Heidita.. gran ejercicio. Busco el Internet para cosas como esta.
