I feel like smoking.

Tengo ganas de fumar. Esta bien traducido?

Answer 1

Just as another option. Although the translation is perfect, where I'm from at least I think one would instead say - I feel like having a smoke.

¡Sí, señor! La oración en inglés es perfecto. Pero voy a avertirte que fumar no es bueno por la salud.

Yes, sir! The English sentence is perfect. But I want to warn you that smoking is not good for your health.

Seems to me that, today, people are more likely to say, "I gotta go out for a smoke!" As if they were driven, not desirous, of smoking! - rickharned, Feb 20, 2013
