herido ( eh-ree'-doh )

adjective ( injured, wounded )

We are currently looking for a corrector for the Spanish sentences. If you are interested, please send me a pm. In the meantime, please help each other as you are able.

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.

De jovencito mi perro, Wolfie, sufrió una herida muy grave después de fallar de saltar un obstaculo muy grande, lo que resultó en una ruptura de los ligamentos. Necesitó una operacion muy cara y mucho cuidado pero ha vuelto a tener una vida muy normal a pesar de lastimarse tanto.

As a youngster my dog, Wolfie suffered a terrible injury after failing to jump a huge obstacle, which led to him rupturing his ligaments. He had to have a very expensive operation and a lot of care but he has returned to live a normal life in spite of hurting himelf so badly.
