How do you say, "The grandfather clock is between...."
I think I may have a two part question:
If "The grandfather clock is between the photos of our moms and dads." is a proper English sentence; is the following Spanish translation okay?
El reloj de abuelo está entre las fotos de nuestras mamás y los papás.
I am mainly concerned about the use of "nuestras" for our (feminine). I need to keep "entre" in the sentence, too.
And yes this is a sentence using vocabulary we (my roomate and I) know! My patience is beginning to pay off!! (Her's too!)

Hi, bandit!
"Nuestras mamás y los papás" sounds a bit odd.
El reloj del abuelo está entre las fotos de nuestras mamás y nuestros papás.
Maybe to say "el reloj del abuelo está entre las fotos de nuestros padres" is more natural.
Edit : ok, or " reloj de pared" jeje
Hi!
I would say nuestros, because it will be the "our" of both fathers and mothers..
El reloj de pie está entre las fotos de nuestros papás.
Grandfather clock = reloj de pie. What you said is the grandfather's clock. You don't need the los in front of papás. As far as I know, nuestro/a/os/as just needs to match the first item in the list:
El reloj de pie está entre las fotos de nuestras mamás y papás
You could also say ...entre las fotos de nuestros padres.
Edit: Looking at the photo, I'd call that a mantel clock, rather than a grandfather clock. I call a grandfather clock one of the big, tall ones that stands on the floor and is as tall or taller than a person.
Thanks again for the team effort! Now I just have to figure out "mantel"! ![]()
mantel is repisa de chimenea. Hope this helps!!
