You omitted the tilde in the cardinal number 22, veintidós. I think we turn off a lot of young, new users by saying we "don't do homeword", yet we have a Q-A section. I think more sensitivity is needed, especially laughing at them while you are doing it. - Esteban3304, Sep 29, 2014
Hi Esteban, I respectfully disagree with you on this one.. The QA section is not meant for such questions .. This is more like shifting your burden to someone else, Something that one can easily google up. why shall that be posted in the QA forum (without - 00b055e0, Sep 29, 2014
even making an attempt). The idea is not to turn any one off but rather to stick to the right and correct approach as we are not a translation service ...we are friends who help each other to learn ..hehe - 00b055e0, Sep 29, 2014
I agree Jimmy. You helped this new member the best way you could. - ian-hill, Sep 29, 2014
I wonder if - Jade91122 - will return and thank you for your help. - ian-hill, Sep 29, 2014
Thanks Ian I know this is what happens most of the times .. hehe .. many forget after posting the homework .. hehe - 00b055e0, Sep 29, 2014
I bet Jade arrived here by using Google, and then gets admonished for not using Google. I agree with the policy of not doing homework for students. The idea of that rule is to get students to think and try to accomlish the assigned task themselves first. - Esteban3304, Sep 30, 2014
There are many, many subtle and sensitive ways to handle this issue, which I usually see correctly handled on this site. One can ask the students to try it first themselves, post their work here, and then get needed instruction, tips, help, links, etc. - Esteban3304, Sep 30, 2014
I disagree with Jimmy when he says, "The Q/A section is not meant for such questions." It is exactly meant for such questions. It's just a matter of using tact and sensitivity. - Esteban3304, Sep 30, 2014
If we are not a "Translation Service" then why do we have a translator for use by everyone? I agree that the Q/A section is not a place for heavy duty teaching, but what I have suggested above works, and I have seen it work countless times here. - Esteban3304, Sep 30, 2014
Esteban, how would you feel if I ask you to do my school homework when I could have easily looked it up myself in less than a minute and especially when the homework is as simple as writing numbers one to fifty or writing ABCD alphabets and - 00b055e0, Sep 30, 2014
and I still maintain that the QA forum is not meant for such questions, and even I usually ask the questioner to make an attempt himself or herself first but when the question is as simple as counting from one to fifty there is no such attempt needed - 00b055e0, Sep 30, 2014
what was rather needed was a diligent effort to look that simple information online by putting the key search phrases on google like"Spanish counting" if I could look it up I don't see any reason why the questioner won't. - 00b055e0, Sep 30, 2014
and no one is admonishing any one .. there is a difference between admonishing and just generally advising about something .. - 00b055e0, Sep 30, 2014
If you go back and run through the language of my answer again .. the phrase "with all due respect" was meant to do just that ,, so that the questioner doesn't misunderstand it to be a rude put down or a disrespectful response .. if you notice there is a - 00b055e0, Sep 30, 2014
