Sylyon1976 is the official corrector for the Spanish sentences. Please correct your posts according to her 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.) Please keep political, religious or personal statements to a minimum. This is a practice game.
Examples:
1. Tengo una entrevista mañana y no puedo con los nervios.
I have an interview tomorrow and I'm incredibly nervous.
2. La próxima edición de la revista incluirá una entrevista con el cantante famoso.
The next issue of the magazine will include an interview with the famous singer.

¿Por qué siempre preguntan la misma pregunta en las entrevistas de trabajo? Preguntan que qué me veo haciendo en cinco años. Yo le dije la verdad a la señora que me entrevistó. Le dije que como una pequeña empresaria. Me contrató, renuncié unos meses después y me convertí en una pequeña empresaria.
Why do they always ask the same question in the job interviews? They ask how I see myself in five years. I told the lady that interviewed me the truth. I said that I see myself as a small business owner. She hired me, a few months later I quit, and became a small business owner.
