Thank you Nelson and Kiwi:) Cogumela taking over Marshal's thread!
This is what happens when we say here in Spain: never ever in my life, no way at all, no thanks, nooooooooooooo, not gonna happen....like when I said I am not hosting chats any more, and cogu said , I am NOT correcting any more threads![]()
So I was talking to Cogumela the other day and telling her that Marshi's thread would have to be closed...and she said, weeeeeeeeeeeeeell
Si se queda sin corrección ese hilo, por favor, avísame.
Soooo, that means she is taking over again, jeje, I did tell her, hey, you are tripping again...and she just said, hey, look who is talking. ![]()
:::sigh:::
I would like to thank Nelson and Kiwi who took the thread over for a while and did a wonderful job.

Muchas gracias a todos por sus palabras sinceras y amables. Aunque hubiera unas disrupciones sorprendentes con el hilo durante los cuatros días pasados, tenemos que adelantarnos hacia un año nuevo..un año de posibilidades nuevas y actitudes nuevas. Como ustedes, quiero aprender más y mejorar mis habilidades tanto como sea posible. No siempre vamos a estar de acuerdo. Sin embargo, espero que podamos florecer juntos en un ambiente sano de aprendizaje sin resentimientos, envidia, codicia o rencor. Voy a seguir corregiendo este hilo si Dios lo quiere. Pero, de ustedes necesito saber que mis correcciones no están hechas en vano. Por favor, sírvanse a ustedes y aprendan todo lo que puedan de este foro. Repasen sus frases. Busquen las correcciones. Aprovéchense de los recursos disponibles. Este sitio es una oportunidad fantástica llena de gente maravillosa dedicada a ayudarles. Sepan que tengo mucho respeto por cada persona que participa en este foro. Les deseo un buen año próspero. Nos vemos pronto...Vicente.
Gracias a todos por vuestros ánimos. Nos vemos en el hilo de Marshi.
Como le dije a Heidi: año nuevo, tarea nueva.
I would like to say a special thank you to all the correctors. You are doing a wonderful job! Thank you Nelson and Kiwi for stepping in on Marshall's thread. You have had very helpful suggestions. Thank you drvicente for all your wonderful corrections on the "Palabra del día" . You are doing a great job! Welcome back, Cogumela! We missed you and will be happy to have you again!

Above: What I looked like when I first read the post
I could not believe it!
Miracles do happen!
I want to thank Kiwi, Nelson, Drvicente, and everyone who kept my thread alive
Raul and Gintar..also Sonrisa and Deanski....Thank you so much
Also, Heidita, who kept hanging in there for me
Wow You guys are the absolute best on the planet
Now it's back to "The English Word of The Day"
Thank you again for the best help in the universe
All of you who I did not mention, you know I love you for your help, as everybody
lent a hand
All of us here will benefit so much with cogumela's corrections.
Big thanks to Nelson, Kiwi, Cogu, Vicente, Heidi, Gintar, Chris, Sir Ian and all the rest who donate their time to help others on their journey to learn another language! They cannot be praised enough!

I learn so much from doing word of the day! This is where I take the opportunity to challenge myself and try out new constructs, or just play around with words following a gut feeling rather than use 'safe' sentences that could easily be taken from a text book and just tweaked a little.
When I receive the corrections, it really gives me a deeper understanding.
Soooooooo, thank you so much to everybody who gives up their valuable time to help us poor lost souls trying to learn this beautiful language of yours ![]()

Our correctors are the best. It takes a lot of time to go over these games and challenges looking for errors (well in my case they don't have to look far
) and I just can't thank them all enough.
It takes a lot of hard work to moderate those threads....

Much thanks to Laura, Drvicente, Kiwi, Nelson, Heidita and all the rest
who work everyday to keep these valuable threads alive
you are true gems of the forum,
and definitely worth more than your weight in gold!
Welcome back, Cogu!

Thanks to all who give of yourselves in effort to help someone learn Spanish!!!! It's much appreciated!!!!
Thank you very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very much!

I really, really want to thank all those who give of their time and knowledge and correct our efforts. I really like the 'words of the day' because, if you are to old to go to school there is very little opportunity to try out your writing. If I have to write to a real person in Spain, obvioulsy, I go for the simplest sentences in the hope of making things clear and correct. On 'word of the day' I can try to use all the things I'm learning. Vicente, Kiwi, Raul Spaniard, Heidita, Cogumela, Nelson and Gintar an all others who help, thank you from my very heart for all the help you give me!
Thank you Cogumela for coming back, and thank you to everyone who has ever moderated any of the threads. Nothing can be compared to having your sentence reviewed by an actual person- when doing a workbook for anything but the simple sentences, you are always left wondering if the way you did the sentence was wrong, or just a different way of doing that is still correct.
I still think that if we had enough volunteers, the idea of offering our current correctors a day off at times with someone else taking over for that day- maybe there are people who would do be willing to do it one day a week to give the regular corrector a day off. I am not sure we have anyone who would be willing, but I know it has to be difficult to do it day after day on end, and I think maybe there would be more volunteers if it did not have to be every day, just on occasion.
Anyway once again thank you Cogumela, and thank you everyone else.


Thanks a million Nelson, and Kiwi, for all you have done and to Vicente for your ongoing support in correcting Word of the day! We owe you guys big time for all the tremendous work you have done and continue to do here at SpanishDict.com. It is a great privelege and honour having you all here with us!!!
Welcome back Gintar and thank you so much for being willing to correct our posts in picture of the Day Thank you very much Cogu for your kindness in being willing to take on the responsibility of correcting Marshall's Word of the Day so that we did not lose this valuable thread!
