I know just what you mean. I think I have it down to 13 minutes but only if I don't try anything fancy. - Leatha, Jan 17, 2011
Thirteen minutes would be a definite improvement for me! The really sad part is that even after laboring over one sentence, it usually still requires correction from cogumela. - mbvb, Jan 17, 2011

Creo que la palabra del día ha agotado todas las palabras de español, es decir no figura ninguna palabra nueva en la lista de palabras.

¿Cómo figuras? - How do you figure?

I just reread the original post ...

La respeusta que figura aquí no vale.
