We are looking for an official corrector for the Spanish sentences. If you are interested, please send me a PM.

Estamos buscando un corrector oficial de las frases en español. Si usted está interesado, por favor envíeme un PM.

Sinmeta will be correcting the Spanish sentences as his time permits. We still need more help with this very important task. Please correct your sentences 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. Los padres de Andrea estaban furiosos cuando se enteraron que hizo trampa en el examen.**

  • Andrea's parents were furious when they found out she had cheated on the exam.*

** 2. Obviamente Enrique estaba furioso. Su padre fue asesinado y no sabían quién lo había hecho ni por qué. Pero ahora mismo tenía que concentrarse en su viaje.**

  • Obviously Enrique was furious. His father was murdered and they didn't know who did it or why. But right now, he had to concentrate on his trip.*

Its back! The 2nd example sentence is part of our Word of the Day "novela" series. Stay tuned tomorrow for the next chapter!

Thanks to everyone that has been helping to correct in the palabra del día. I know it is a time-consuming job and we all are very appreciative of your work and dedication to us and to SD!!

Hi Martha, thank you for doing this. The thing I don't understand today is the phonetic sound for pronunciation purposes. - 0095ca4c, May 20, 2013

I naturally like to challenge myself, and sometimes that trait makes me furious.

Naturalmente me gusta desafiarme a mí misma, y a veces ese rasgo me pone furiosa.

Es muy fácil llegar a ser furioso con el caballo durante las lecciones. Esto no es bueno para el caballo o el jinete. Sigue repitiendo, ¡"el pasto es verde y el cielo es azul"!

It is so easy to become furious with the horse during lessons. This isn't good for the horse or the rider! Keep repeating, "the grass is green and the sky is blue"!

Anoche de repente hacía viente muy fuete como una tempestad furiosa.

Last night suddenly there were strong winds like a raging tempest.

Errors: I had Ayer por la noche instead of Anoche and I got confused using de menudo meaning often rather than de repente. Now I think it says in Spanish what it says in English.
