HI alba, no, you just put:

era tan sensible.....she was so sensitive

Into the phrasebook entry, then both examples, mine and yours, as "example sentences"

I hope you are ok with thatgrin

What should I put in for the Spanish? Being sensitive to noise and just being sensitive aren't exactly the same things. Is there a Spanish phrase more similar to crying at the drop of a hat? Thanks.
