Looks good to me apart from 'tus' - if you have the impersonal se puede I think you should use 'sus' - but i'm not a native speaker and still learning too. Other than that it looks pretty good ![]()
Oh and the 'mejor dicho' - best said? Is that what you wanted to say?
Mejor dicho, no estoy segura de que se pueda entender la pobreza sin verlo con tus propios ojos.
Mejor dicho - Better said, - or- rather,
I might have chosen, "con los propios ojos"...since "one can" with their own eyes.
(just an idea/opinion)
But, I'm in agreement with Eddy, Mariana, and Kiwi-Girl. All made keen observations.
I too, defer to a native...for a different perspective. So, good luck.
Looks okay to me . The "no estoy segura de que" would invoke the subjunctive, hence "se pueda". Obviously there are other ways of saying the same thing but the above appears acceptable. However, I am not a native so wait for more answers.
