Like what happened...

Question

Hola a todos! I just need a little help again. ¿Ustedes podrían traducir esta oracíon al español, por favor?

Like what happened to Mario and to the 2 students who were with him, Simon was also suspended.

I already used the translator but it gave me 3 different translation but not sure which of them is correct.

¡Gracias por adelantado!

Answer 1

Like what happened to Mario and to the 2 students who were with him, Simon was also suspended.

Como lo que pasó a Mario y los otros estudiantes que estaban con él, le dieron ( impusieron) una condena condicional a Simon también.

Hola Mariana... suspender is what we would use for students (lo suspendieron)... Once an attorney, always an attorney :-) - francobollo, Jan 6, 2013

Hehehe, thanks, Franco! - --Mariana--, Jan 8, 2013

Answer 2

helpful hint withn the translator...I usually take the translation which I understand the most and enter the spanish into the translator a few words at a time to get a better understanding of it. I do the same for the other translations to see the differences.

Good advice! - francobollo, Jan 6, 2013

Yes, the translator is much better at digesting small bits. Longer passages are a near guaranteed fail. - rogspax, Jan 8, 2013
