DO NOT use the translator!! ¡No usar el traductor!
**Work must be done by yourself.
This thread is about YOUR ability not the ability of the translator. 
**
Post your sentences in Spanish and English, then vote for the ones you like. The best answer will be chosen tomorrow on the basis of the greatest number of votes and language correctness.
These threads are kindly moderated by Heidita. Please correct your posts according to Heidita’s indications and suggestions 
.
**Only add ONE picture to your post, you sentence MUST be comprehensible without the picture!**
Posts which will not be corrected or accepted:
• Captions with 3 words or less
• Paragraphs with more than 4 lines
• Posts which cannot be understood after they are read three or four times
• Posts which consist mainly of lyrics or idioms which do not translate.
• Captions copied directly from books or other sources.
• Multiple posts from one person, or those who don't write the sentences in both English and Spanish.
• Remember to use the Word of the Day in a typical Spanish sentence. This is great practice for you and for everyone that reads the thread to see how the Word of the Day could be used in a sentence.
Remember to correct your posts as suggested or they can NOT be "accepted".
Do not use subject pronouns in Spanish. (You'll be sent to the dunce corner!)
Please refrain from overloading with graphic content (ie; bold smileys, etc). It makes it harder for the correctors to be able to read your posts…. )
My Example:
Siempre me gusta hacer las citas para todas las cosas que hago. Sin embargo muchas veces se me olvidan las citas…es siempre muy triste…
I always like to make appointments for everything that I do. However a lot of times I forget the appointments, it is always very sad….
