  • Post your comments/titles/captions to this picture (both in Spanish and English) and vote for the responses you like. The best answer will be chosen soon on the basis of the greatest number of votes as well as the language accuracy.

  • Pon tu comentario/ título/ pie de foto a esta imagen (ambos en español y inglés) y vota por las respuestas que te gusten. La mejor respuesta será seleccionada mañana, tanto por la cantidad de votos como por la corrección en el uso del idioma.

  • Please, give everyone a chance and only post more or less one caption and no photos.

  • Por favor, deja que todos tengan una oportunidad y pon más o menos una respuesta, sin fotos. .

Please encourage everyone with a vote. smile

Muy bueno! (Por hacer esto casi se me quema la riquísima tarta de crema de maíz que tenía en el horno). - Soybeba, May 24, 2015

Oh, no. I hope the your tarta de crema de maíz came out great, Beba!:) - sanlee, May 24, 2015
Sí, un poco "tostada" (pero no veo la hora de "atacarla" -acometer contra ella=comerla-).) - Soybeba, May 24, 2015
Yum, I love "tostada". - sanlee, May 24, 2015
A mí también pero el pan (con manteca), no la tarta. - Soybeba, May 24, 2015

  • ¿Qué pasa? ¿Ahora se baila así el hula-hula? (La gente grande va a entender).
  • What's going on? Is this how the hulahoop is danced nowadays? (The older people will understand).

Soybeba yo diría: What's going on? Is this how you dance the hula nowadays? Or: Is this how the hulahoop is danced nowadays? - annierats, May 24, 2015
Very good SoyBeba. The older people will understand. :) - quantifier, May 24, 2015
Veo que estás en la mía, Quantifier. ;-)) - Soybeba, May 24, 2015
Gracias, Annierats, te hice caso. ¿Es demasiado formal decir "What happens?"? - Soybeba, May 24, 2015
What's happening? What's going on? Both are good. "The older people" Very good, Beba. - sanlee, May 24, 2015

Creo que él debería hacer algo con las anillas también.

I think that he should do something with the rings also.

This is a good example of a multitask multitasking boy...but,if I were him, I would learn more useful skills: cooking, speaking on the phone and feeding the baby at the same time. They are more difficult and most mothers can do it perfectly.

Este es un buen ejemplo de chico multitarea... pero, si yo fuera él, aprendería habilidades más útiles: cocinar, hablar por teléfono y dar de comer al niño. Ther es más difícil y algo que muchas madres saben hacer al mismo tiempo a la perfección.

((Has anyone noticed the boy at in the back who gets so excited that he jumps up to fetch the cell to publish the record on Facebook? ¿Alguien se ha dado cuenta del chico del fondo que se emociona tanto que se levanta de un salto para ir a coger el móvil y publicar el record en Facebook?))

Con tiempo podremos arreglar que genere electricidad por su propio cuerpo y podremos utilizarlo como instalación de la lámpara colgada del techo.

In time we might get him to generate electricity with his own body and then we can use him as a light fitting for a ceiling light.

To be an expert at something useless is useless.

Ser un experto a en algo inútil es inútil.

"...debe *estar".." (si dices "ser tan orgullosa", se pensará que la madre es engreída=vain/arrogant). :-)) - Soybeba, May 24, 2015
Mejor: ¡Su madre debe de estar tan orgullosa...! ;))) - Erreqs, May 24, 2015
¡Pedro, escribimos al mismo tiempo! - Soybeba, May 24, 2015
"Deber estar" implica obligación. "Debe de estar" : (pensamos que tiene motivos para estar orgullosa). - Erreqs, May 24, 2015
Sí, Beba. Hemos coincidido. :))) - Erreqs, May 24, 2015

Tal vez las recomendaciones del Cirujano General para los requisitos de la educación condición física hayan cambiado en su país.

Perhaps the recommendations of the Surgeon General for the physical education requirements have changed in his country.

¿Cómo es que no le estorba la cuerda (en el camino)? A difficult one, because it is a fixed expression in English. Very good, as well! :)) - Waidh, May 25, 2015
