Un millón de gracias a Rafa (nelson_rafael)

Question

Sólo quería agradecerle a Rafa (Nelson) por toda su ayuda en ésta semana que me fui e hizo todas las correcciones para las dos palabras del día (en inglés y español).

¿Por qué no te tomas el fin de semana para descansar y yo hago las correciones de la palabra del día en inglés por tí?

Tu ayuda aquí es invaluable.

Te mando un abrazo y de verdad, las gracias te doy de corazón.

Thank you Susy for showing us once again that you are a " Class act " and a very beautiful person , knowing you has been one of the highlights of my life. - ray76, Mar 15, 2014

Ditto - or words to that effect. :) - ian-hill, Mar 15, 2014

Glad your back susy. I hope you did'nt get any speeding tickets :-))!!! - Jraider, Mar 15, 2014

Ray, gracias por tus bonitas palabras. :) - 00e46f15, Mar 15, 2014

Jraider, it was great on the way there, but on the way back I couldn't speed because of the horrible traffic. xoxo - 00e46f15, Mar 15, 2014

Answer 1

Más bien.... Muchas gracias a Uds.

Susy, gracias por tan bonito homenaje. Es siempre un placer ayudar. Y claro, gracias por ayudarme a corregir estos días también.

Since I joined SD, I've been learning a lot. Although I don't usually post questions, I do learn from the corrections, and from other people doubts.

I've just arrived from a trip to another city. I had a job interview with a Korean Company. As some of you know, I'm a Civil Engineer. The company is Samsung Engineering, and they're building an Urea and Ammonia Plant (fertilizers) in Bolivia. I have to start in May though. My interview was in English, but it wasn't a problem because as I was talking about things that I know, I was very confident with my speeches and answers. Of course, still I have a lot to do with my English.

Thank you again, to the ones who used to be here, to you guys, and to the ones who are yet to come. En especial a don Ian, quien era mi maestro aquí en Cochabamba y me invitó a unirme al grupo...

Esta es mi ciudad:

Thank you for being here, Nelson. ♥ - rac1, Mar 21, 2014

This is Cochabamba - the mountain is called Tunari. Hola Nelson. Great pic Nelson. - ian-hill, Mar 21, 2014

Nice city. Good luck with your new job ;) - 00b5f6c6, Mar 21, 2014

Awe, I went to Cochabamba a thousand years ago. - deedeegill72, Mar 21, 2014

Me encantó que te gustara, Rafa. Un abrazo y gracias otra vez por todo lo que haces por nosotros! :D - 00e46f15, Mar 21, 2014

Answer 3

I think we should drink a "chicha" toast to Nelson and Susy.

Creo que deberíamos hacer un brindis "chicha" para Nelson y Susy.

Cheers.

Un brindis con agua no no. :) - ian-hill, Mar 15, 2014

Chicha es una bebida alcohólica muy popular en Bolivia desde hace miles de años - ian-hill, Mar 15, 2014

Mare's milk? Fermented, like the mongolian version? Only llama milk, I suppose? - annierats, Mar 15, 2014
