Answer 1

con todo mi corazon (with all my heart) I think with ama she meantAlma(soul), so I think she meant to say...Te amo con todo mi Corazon y mi alma..... I love you with all my heart and soul.....the answer above was right on....

Okay, that's definitely a possibility too: "con todo mi corazón y alma" (with all my heart and soul). - webdunce, Dec 23, 2010

¡Hola!, Worlda342:

Welcome to the forum at Span¡shD!ct.com.

Perhaps she meant:

con todo mi corazon te amo = with all my heart I love you

But wait a bit and see what others have to say.

Muchos saludos/Best regards

Yes...that seems far more likely... - Seb79, Dec 23, 2010

You are correct. I thought she would want to use the translator. - 0066c384, Dec 23, 2010

Answer 3

You are reading your daughter's letters? And now you want us to translate?

You can use the translator engine on this site to get a general idea of the meaning. You will likely have problems with this phrase because at least one word is mispelled. If you intend to read her mail and she is writing in Spanish, you need to learn to use the translator.

"Cortazon" should probably be "corazón". "Contodo" should probably be "con todo".

So you will have "Con todo mi corazón ama".

Repost your response if you have questions.

Given the mispellings, the MT's probably would make hash of this, - samdie, Dec 23, 2010

Answer 4

First, after we separate it into words and correct a misspelling, we get: Con todo mi corazón ama.

But, even that doesn't make complete sense because of the "ama", which can mean he loves, she loves, or you love depending on context. (If "you love" is meant, it would have a formal sound to it that would come across more like, "you love, Sir.")

I get the impression that either she is just learning Spanish or that she made several typos.

Perhaps she meant: "con todo mi corazón amo," which would be "with all my heart I love." (A general statement about how she loves?)

Or, perhaps she meant: "con todo mi corazón te amo," which would be "with all my heart I love you."

However, I really can't say exactly what is your daughter's intention. (Only she can know that.) I can only say I don't really understand the sentence as written (with ama).

By the way, you can double-click on (almost) any word you see at this site and a little light-blue pop-up box will appear with that word's definition in both English and Spanish.
