Short message translation

Question

Hi

I am new to this site. However, I am moving to Argentina in a few months, so you will probably see much more of me ;p

I want to send something to my girlfriend in Argentina and attach a little note with that. I don't trust auto-translators that much as I know Spanish can get a little tricky with the word order and idioms.

I want to say: "All I want, is to get rid of all the bad memories and fill our life with..."

the best I could come up with using the internet and what I know is: "Todo (or 'Solo') que quiero es (or 'se') deshacer de las memorias malas y llenar nos vive con..."

I should be super grateful for any advice on this.

Thank you

peace & love

Jean

Answer 1

You can write "Sólo quiero deshacerme de las memorias (malas = bad; infelices = unhappy; tristes = sad) y llenar nuestra vida juntos (our life together) con....

Peace and true, lasting, committed love to you as well!

See you again, we hope.

Edited a little: "las" memorias.

Deshacerse - a reflexive verb - means "to get rid of" and I take it that you mean to get rid of memories regardless of whose they are. I guess to be clear you could say deshacernos (rid ourselves of). Please vote for me, I like the points. Cheers! - Jubilado, Jul 12, 2013

Buenisimo!! Muchas Gracias. Yo soy de Sudáfrica. Sólo una pregunta mas... - 'Deshacerme', will that apply to 'our memories' or just mine? I know the 'me' at the end of a verb means 'to me'. Muchas gracias por la ayuda. - jeanbra, Jul 12, 2013
