Answer 1

Hola, Clinton. Escribiaste muy bien en español. Me llamo Jubilado aquí (acá) en este sitio. Me gustan las frutas y verduras, pero como el carne también. Evidentemente estás joven si ya puedes comer pizza. Sería mejor traducir en inglés lo que escribas (subjuntivo) aquí (acá), y podríamos corregirlo.

Hi, Clinton. You write Spanish very well. My name is Jubilado here (another way to say here is acá) on this site. I like fruit and vegetables, but I eat meat as well. Apparently you are young because you can still eat pizza. It would be better to translate into English what you write (subjunctive) here, and we will be able to correct it.

Gracias por tu atentado. Thanks for your attempt (to use Spanish).

Hi Jubliado. I have only completed the first 4 lesson on this site (1.1-1.4) and I am practicing what I've learnt. So thanks for your help and input. - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

Thanks for the information. You probably are not ready for tenses or moods of verbs outside the Present Indicative. Do you spreak British English? I'm American. - Jubilado, Jun 11, 2013

Well I am from Australia so yes, but I am now living in the U.S. and I know the differences. Eg tyre=tire, centre=center, catalogue=catalog etc. - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

Answer 2

Hello. My name is Tania. I´m from Spain and I study English. I´m funny and artistic. I like read and travel. I eat rice and strawberries. I will writte some bad words and sentences. If you can correct me, I would be very grateful.

En español, cambiamos la "y" por "e" cuando la palabra que le sigue empieza por "i". Ej: Soy atlético y inteligente MAL Soy atlético e inteligente BIEN

Hi Tanya. Your english is very good. In your last statement you said "I like read and travel." It should read as " I like to read and travel." - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

"writte" is incorrect should be "write" - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

Other than that I would say very good! - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

And thanks for your help :) - clemk93, Jun 11, 2013

Hola Taniusk. In English " bad words " means " vulgar or swear words ". The correct word here would be " wrong " words. Good luck. buena suerte ! - britisk, Jun 11, 2013
