I know that Coca-Cola has been involved with terrible acts against the environment around the world, but I still love the way that combination of sugar and caffeine makes me feel.

Sé que Coca Cola ha estado implicada con actos terribles contra el medio ambiente por todo el mundo, pero aun asi adoro la manera que me hace sentir esa combinación de azúcar y cafeína.

Gracias Bill. No creo me olvida el verbo! - amykay, Nov 13, 2010

Answer 9

Mmmm prefiero la coca original - para me ¡nada de la coca nueva! Yum - I prefer original coke - forget about the new version!

While not unheard of, 'coca' on its own is more readily understood as cocaine than Coca-Cola. "para mí". By the way, the literal translation is fine too: "Olvídate de la nueva versión" - bill1111, Nov 13, 2010

Answer 11

Me pregunto si me pueden chupar este fruto seco, en el fondo de esta botella, a través de esta paja?

I wonder if I can suck this nut, in the bottom of this bottle, through this straw?

"si podría aspirar". Oh, and in Spanish it isn't usual to say "fruto seco" except when you are talking about nuts in general. You'd say "esta nuez" (this walnut), "esta avellana" (this hazelnut), etc.. - bill1111, Nov 13, 2010
