Help translating website? Please?

Question

Hi everyone,

I have recently started a scholarship for bilingual students at the high school where I work. I have a website set up with information about it and I have translated the pages into Spanish, but I know there are mistakes. I would love some suggestions for improving the Spanish pages.

The website is www.bilingualscholarship.wordpress.com

Thank you for taking a look at it! I really appreciate the help.

Answer 1

If this website is for bilingual students, why not ask for their help? Nothing teaches like doing.

My contribution-home page (one possibility) is página de inicio

Am I reading that correctly? You have to be parent (graduating high school) to apply for this scholarship? (Why switching from debes to debe?)

I hope that #7 is idiomatic. Does that say only "squids" cheat?

Good idea, yes, but the problem is, my students have, at best, a junior high education in Spanish. Most far less than that. - jthomas29, Oct 25, 2011

Then how are they bilingual? - 0074b507, Oct 25, 2011

Thank you, and Yes. #7 is only squids cheat. #2 - You have to be cool. My students are all Mexican, so I am looking for a Mexican Spanish term for 'cool'. - jthomas29, Oct 25, 2011

Bilingual in that their native language is not English and have had either bilingual ed or ESL here in Texas. - jthomas29, Oct 25, 2011
