Find words related to O F T E N

12
votes

The idea is to find words related to the word –

O F T E N (adverbio) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Examples:

We have often been there. - Hemos ido allí muchas veces.

He writes to me often. - Me escribe a menudo.

Eight Or Nine Wise Words About Letter Writing By Lewis Carroll

This link might help you find some ideas. (Scroll down for most of the synonyms and antonym)

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.

I think I can manage to be the corrector for the English ?

Please encourage everyone by voting for them and me .wink

This was the previous challenge.

A veces sí, y a veces no me gusta votar por Ian, depende de lo que él escriba.

I often vote for Ian as often as not, it depends on what he writes.

I'm still trying to get my head around this logic "I often vote for Ian as often as not," :) - ian-hill, Apr 2, 2015
"as often as not" = half the time - so I often do it half the time = most of the time I don't. :)))) - ian-hill, Apr 2, 2015
Oh dear, Tiempo, Iseem to be having a very bad time with the subjunctive just now. It is often the case, Ian, that I vot for you. - annierats, Apr 3, 2015

Oft is another word that means often, but it is not so frequently used. You always pronounce the T in 'oft', but you don't need to pronounce it in 'often'. Frequently folk pronounce the 'T' in 'often', but equally frequently they don't...

'Oft' es otra palabra que quiere decir 'often' ('frecuentemente'), pero no se usa tan frecuentemente. El T siempre se dice en 'oft', sino no es necesario en 'often'. A menudo se dice con el T, pero tan frecuentemente sin él...

A menudo los adultos llevarán la seda dental el hilo dental en un bolso, bolsillo o en el tablero/panel salpicadero del coche, ¡pero nunca hemos visto hilo dental en una fiambrera lunchera de niños!

Oftentimes adults will carry floss in a purse, pocket, or in the car's dashboard, but I've never seen floss in a children's lunch box!

En los chistes, es común representar a los abogados como personas que sólo persiguen sus propios intereses, pero hoy leo leí un editorial sobre un abogado que pagó los comestibles de un desconocido cuya tarjeta de crédito no funcionaba, sin nada más que una promesa de reembolsa, y me recordó que hay muchos abogados a quienes les importa la justicia.

In jokes, it is common to represent lawyers as people who only pursue their own interests, but today I read an editorial about a lawyer who paid for the groceries of someone he didn't know whose credit card was not working, without anything more than a promise of repayment, and it reminded me that there are many lawyers to whom justice is important.

Hacer la misma cosa repetidamente, esperando un resultado diferente es la definición de "locura" (Albert Einstein)

To do the same thing over and over expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.
