BLeS - La - SyL #1 * * new game * *

Question

I have been collecting aphorisms, proverbs, lines from songs, quotes, .... for as long as I can remember, but the other day my imaginary book of texts got attacked by a vicious bunny who tried to eat some of the words.
After a short struggle I managed to get all syllables back, but I need your help to put them back into the sentences.

Here are the rescued syllables:

BRAS - CIAS - CIR - CUN - DE - DRA - ES - JU - LA - PA - PE - PIE - POR - RAN - STAN - TE - TUD - VEN - ZA

and here are the incomplete sentences:

(1) Yo soy yo y mis --------- (José Ortega y Gasset (1883-1955, filósofo y ensayista español))

(2) No hay espejo que mejor refleje la imagen del hombre que sus --------
(Juan Luis Vives (1492-1540, humanista y filósofo))

(3) Una sola ------- puede desmoronar un edificio.
(Francisco de Quevedo (1580-1645, escritor español))

(4) La --------- es un defecto que se corrige con el tiempo.
(Enrique Jardiel Poncela (1901-1952, escritor español))

(5) El más terrible de los sentimientos es el sentimiento de tener la --------- perdida. (Federico García Lorca (1898-1936, poeta y dramaturgo español))

(6) El amor es el único ------- que no se interrumpe por falta de luz.
(Noel Clarasó (1905-1985, escritor español))

---

Please, please, please, complete these sentences with the missing words, composed of the rescued syllables.

Mind you:
- I have put them in alphabetic order.
- Each syllable is used only once.

To show you what I need you to do, I solved the first one myself:
(1) Yo soy yo y mis CIR-CUN-STAN-CIAS.

Remaining (rescued) syllables:

BRAS - DE - DRA - ES - JU - LA - PA - PE - PIE - POR - RAN - TE - TUD - VEN - ZA

Answer 1

That leaves us with the following syllables for sentence 5: ES - PE - RAN - ZA

I hope we can solve this difficult puzzle, people ))

Thanks all for participating, I have found some more piecs of papers with syllables on it, so a new edition is on its way.

Great news! - annierats, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 2

(6) El amor es el único de -por-te que no se interrumpe por falta de luz.

Yes! I am so proud of you, annie ;-)) Only you could do this sentence ;-))) - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

I did worry alittle about that, myself. Why didn't I start on no one? More logical.. - annierats, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 3

Ok.....I think I've got it!!!

(3) Una sola pie-dra puede desmoronar un edificio.

Yeah, well done! - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

I think you've got another one as well ;-) - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 4

Not sure if I'm doing this correctly, but here's goes....

(3) Una sola pa-la-bra puede desmoronar un edificio.

You played it well, but your answer is incorrect, alas. There is no syllable 'bras' ;-) - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

But you did combine those syllables very well! - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

There is a syllable above called "bras" but not "bra." - crazy_for_sugar, Aug 16, 2012

Remaining (rescued) syllables: B R A S ? - --Mariana--, Aug 16, 2012

I cannot spend too many 'words' on answering this, for fear of giving another 'word' away ;-) - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 5

(2) No hay espejo que mejor refleje la imagen del hombre que sus pa la bras (Juan Luis Vives (1492-1540, humanista y filósofo))

And also correct! Well done! - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

Nice!!!! - --Mariana--, Aug 16, 2012

I only got this one, because I was looking over your 'virtual' shoulder, and hice trampa un poco. - yahvey_hoffman, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 6

(5) El más terrible de los sentimientos es el sentimiento de tener la es pe ran za perdida.

I feel a bit piggish..taking the final three, but I do love this game you've created. - yahvey_hoffman, Aug 16, 2012

I didn't say you could not play them all ;-) I will come up with a new edition later today. - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 7

(4) La ju ven tud es un defecto que se corrige con el tiempo. (Enrique Jardiel Poncela (1901-1952, escritor español))

Yes, correct ;-) - mcl020, Aug 16, 2012

Answer 8

So, we still have to solve sentences 2, 4 and 5, with the following syllables:
BRAS - ES - JU - LA - PA - PE - RAN - TUD - VEN - ZA

Answer 9

Now that Marianne has solved sentence #3, we are left with the following syllables:

BRAS - DE - ES - JU - LA - PA - PE - POR - RAN - TE - TUD - VEN - ZA

Hint: pa-la-bra was extremely close to one of the words we are looking for here!
