Mistakes are an important part of our lives. People who have never made a mistake have never tried anything new.

Answer 3

Oh God, I hope I turned off the curling iron.

Dios mío, espero que apague haber apagado el rizador.

You don't know how many times I have worried about that after leaving my house. That includes straighteners, irons, etc. - Nicole-B, Jul 5, 2011

Oh my goodness, I know! Every time I leave, I always have to think, "Did I turn off the flat iron?!" - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 5, 2011

"Dios mío, espero *haber apagado* el rizador" (In Spanish, it's not correct to say "I hope I turned off "... it's better to say "I hope I've *turned off* / Espero *haber apagado*) very funny haha - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Gracias, Vicente! - SonrisaDelSol, Jul 5, 2011

¿Por qué los miembros usan el tranductor?

Why do members use the translator?

jaja, good one :D although it's not necessary to add "la máquina de", if you say "usan el traductor" is completely right :D very good ! - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Answer 6

Man in picture''

'' Oh ...no! I have just made a terrible mistake: I have used personal pronouns in my sentences again and the translator too So now I have bought a one-way ticket to the dunce corner!''

= El Hombre en la foto (o la imagen)

''¡Ay ..no! Acabo de cometer un error terrible: he usado los pronombres personales en mis oraciones de nuevo y también el traductor ¡Así que ahora he comprado un billete de ida solo al rincón de burro!''( o a la esquina de burro)

Editor's note: This is what the man in the picture is saying As you can see I have not used either personal pronouns or the translator I was not sure which phrase is used for the dunce corner el rincón de burro or la esquina de burro I favour the first one since a dunce corner is usually found inside a room not on the corner of the street Lol

Corregid mi español, por favor

Your Spanish sentence is right, although you should correct the punctuaction (commas) and "rincón del burro" is perfect :) and try to correct the punctuation and misspelling on the Editor's note :D hahah you always surprise me with your sentences man - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Perfect as usual :P (it will be even more perfect when you correct the punctuaction and things mentioned before :D haha) Un gran abrazo, Paul ! - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Muchas gracias Vicente, mi amigo:) - FELIZ77, Jul 5, 2011

¿Es posible mejorar la perfección? jejejeje - FELIZ77, Jul 5, 2011

Siempre es posible :) jeje - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

by the way, it's "pronombres", you changed it to "prenombres" jeje :p - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

:O I finally got a Spanish sentence correct and I messed up the English...bitter sweet day. On top of that, I am sent to the dunce corner for the first time ever ;( Puts a pout on my face and walks over slowly..... - HotChickCD, Jul 5, 2011

Answer 8

¡Maldito sea! no me recuerdo donde puse las etiquetas de signo de interrogación. Damn it, I don't remember where I put those question mark tags.

My original thought: ¡Maldito sea! no me recuerdo donde puse las etiquetas signo de interrogación. didn't seem right :( My sentence:¡Maldito sea! no me recuerdo donde puse los signo de interrogación etiquetas. arrrgh!!! so close!

"donde puse las etiquetas de signo de interrogación ." hehe :D funny because they are right behind him ! haah - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Damn it, I had it right the first time but it did't look right. ;) - Yeser007, Jul 6, 2011

Thanks Vicente! - Yeser007, Jul 6, 2011

Los errores de otros gentes otras personas son más graciosos de que mis errores.

Inge replace ''make'' with ''do'' :) - HotChickCD, Jul 5, 2011

you did it very well, but I would say "Si haces los deberes muy rápidos .." or "Si haces los debes así de rápido ... " :P Un abrazo ! - Vicente1, Jul 5, 2011

Answer 13

!Tiene que ser un sueño! ¡No puede ser que me haya pillado heidita de nuevo mezclando el tuteo y formal a la vez!

It has to be a dream! It can't be that Heidita has caught me again, using the informal tuteo, and the formal usted at the same time.

"mezclando" is perfect in this context ! very good, Joe :D Eres genial, eh ! - Vicente1, Jul 6, 2011
