Request help with wording smart-aleck birthday greeting

Question

Hi all,

I wanted to get help wording a snarky birthday post to a Mexican friend´s facebook page.

Something along the lines of .

My gift to you is promising to post only about half of the coming embarrassing photos to your facebook page.

Te regalo mi promesa poner solo un mitad de las fotos vergonzosas que hago esta noche en tu feis.

All suggestions for improvements in wording apprecated, as long as I´m still giving my friend good and proper grief, and as long as they are not at all polite.

thanks roger

Answer 1

For what you have written, I would say Te doy mi promesa (te prometo publicar) de publicar sólo una mitad de las fotos vergonzosas que te voy a sacar esta noche en tu fiesta.

Are you using "uan mitad" to mean "about half"? I would have personally said "mas o menos la mitad," but if "una" can really mean the same thing in this instance, it does sound much better. - BigMike, May 24, 2013

Thanks much. I used your improved version, and he and our friends seemed to enjoy it. - rogspax, May 25, 2013
