Francobollo is the official corrector for the Spanish sentences. Please correct your posts according to his suggestions. There are many native English speakers here, most of us can offer great suggestions to the English sentences. I will do my best to go through them all, too. Use today's Word of the Day in your own Spanish sentence (and include the English translation as well). Try to use the word in a completely new way and vote on the sentences you like best. The winner will be chosen based upon the correct use of the word as well as the number of votes.
Guidelines:
Write sentences at least 5 words long, but don't write a paragraph either. Write your Spanish sentence, but include the English translation as well. Make the corrections suggested by other users and moderators in the comments section (try not to use personal pronouns unless absolutely necessary). Use your own words! (Don't use a translator, copy from a book, use song lyrics, etc.) Have fun experimenting with Spanish.
Examples:
1. El segundo día de mi viaje a Chile me enfermé y me tuve que quedar en el hotel el resto del tiempo.
The second day of my trip to Chile I got sick and had to stay at the hotel for the rest of the time.
2. La segunda vez que fui a ese restaurante, la comida estaba pésima y el servicio muy lento. No vuelvo más.
The second time I went to that restaurant, the food was terrible and the service was very slow. I am not going back.
