si dices "se lo trae de vuelta"... refering to something you are bringing back to a country.. does that makes sense? The "se" part I mean- I heard it on the radio.

Would it mean "it is brought back"?

Thanks for your time!

Yes it would mean "it is brought back"

For example.

Se llevaron a willy (la ballena) a un acuario, pero ahora se lo traen de vuelta para Alaska, a la naturaleza.

They took to willy the whale to a seaworld, but now they are bringing it back to Alaska to the wild.

Yours is active voice. So the se is not passive se? it is pronominal traerse? - 0074b507, Oct 26, 2011
In Englsih, avoid willy! It is obne of the most unfortunate names you can possibly give to an animal, say no more. - annierats, Oct 26, 2011
You don'tneed to avoid willy. It is a very common name in Ireland, and you don't associate anything with it. Thanks for this. it's really helpful - dewclaw, Oct 26, 2011
