Today write sentences with "come round"

Question

Hello everyone. I think phrasal verbs are some of the most difficult to many English learners because most of them do not have a literal translation. So I have decided to learn one or two phrasal verbs every day.

I know you can help me with that, but you also need to learn Spanish, so please write the sentence in English using the PV then try it in Spanish. Then I will correct your sentence (the Spanish sentence, of course); we will help each other out.

If you´re not sure about how to translate your sentence, just explain (in English) what your Pv means and I will help with your translation.

Today let's write sentences using the phrasal verb:

"Come round"

Answer 1

She'll be coming 'round the mountain when she comes.

Ella vendrá alrededor de la montaña cuando ella viene.

Here's the American folk tune.

Ella tendrá que pasar rodeando la montaña cuando (ella) venga. - luisssito, Jul 25, 2012

Answer 2

Entonces, los vaqueros llegaron alrededor de la fogata e intercambiaron sus historías.

Then the cowboys came around the fire and exchanged their stories.

"to come Around" - can be different from "to come round" :) - ian-hill, Jul 24, 2012

Yes,and there is the point of confusion.I wrote came around when in english would say "come round" the fire and mean the same thing. - louise365, Jul 24, 2012

Answer 3

Ella no me creía al principio, pero ella se daba cuenta con tiempo que yo era correcto.

She didn't believe at first, but she came around over time that I was right.

Not literal, but I think the interpretation carries the meaning?

Ella no creía al comienzo( principio is ok), pero con el tiempo se dio cuenta que yo tenía razón. - luisssito, Jul 24, 2012

Thanks, Luís! - Noetol, Jul 24, 2012

Answer 4

Come round and see us sometime. / Ven algún día a vernos.

Do you want to come round for lunch? / ¿Quieres venir a comer?

She'll never come round to our way of thinking. / Nunca se convencerá de que tenemos razón.
