Answer 1

Hola, mis compañeros en SD. Les agradezco todas las felicitaciones y "enhorabuenas" y el amor que siempre me dan. Como he dicho varias veces, estoy aquí para servir y enseñar. A veces los mods se enojan conmigo cuando veo un post que realmente puedo usar para darles una enseñanza a todo el grupo y pongo la respuesta y encuentro que he cometido una violación de las reglas. Hasta los profes tienen que obedecer las reglas.

Por esta razón estoy actualmente planeando una serie de lecciones, comenzando con el subjunctivo, luego algo sobre los pronombres directos, indirectos, reflexivos, etc. Creo que ya he escrito algo sobre "gustar" y verbos como gustar, pero no estoy segura. Pienso poner un post regular y uno como de referencia, cada vez que escriba sobre un tópico.

Pero basta ya de palabras. Disfruten el corto baile flamenco que les hago.

If you want the English translation. You'll have to wait 'till tomorrow afternoon. Had a busy day today and will be busy until after church. I'm too pooped to pop. Buenas noches. ♥♥ - Daniela2041, Oct 18, 2015

:))) - ian-hill, Oct 18, 2015

Is that a pic of the day for Sandy? - ian-hill, Oct 18, 2015

Wow, I like it. I may use it. You are the best, Dani! - sanlee, Oct 18, 2015

Another surprise from the 'feisty Yank Sheila'.grasia amante. - ray76, Oct 18, 2015

Me encanta la frase "he escrito also sobre "gustar" y verbos como gustar". Pero otra vez nos enseña con sus palabras. Pues no necesitamos el inglés. Somos listos. - Jubilado, Oct 18, 2015

That should have been "algo" Grrrrrr! I hate those typos. I changed it in the post. - Daniela2041, Oct 19, 2015

Answer 2

Congratulations Dani!

Thanks for your everything you did for us. you´re hard-worker, helpful person. You really a good friend!

Answer 3

Once upon a time, there was a woman of many talents. She put those talents to work serving her country in the military. She also became proficient in several languages, even teaching one of them at the college level. Eventually she joined an on-line community of learners called spanishdict.com. There she quickly became known as a person whose knowledge, clarity of expression, and desire to help were indispensable to the other members. Her use of her talents to benefit others has resulted in her gaining a multitude of reputation points, 50,000, to be exact, as of the creation of this thread in her honor.

I can hardly wait. Your congrats posts are amazing! - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

@Ann: I just got this from Porcupine: This is how I do it. "You can insert pictures like this:  - porcupine7 29 mins ago. - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

The rectangular thingy is two brackets [ ] close like this [] then you preface it with a !. So the whole enchilada would look like this: " " without the quotation marks. Try it. - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

I've done it before by copying the formatting from a previous post and pasting in the new URL, but that didn't work for the pic I wanted this time, so I deleted it. No preview is nerve-racking too. - AnnRon, Oct 17, 2015

Yes.That bugged me at first. But if it doesn't work out right, ther's always the "edit" button. If they take that away I'm toast. - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

For the pic do this. ! [ ] (url goes here) But don't use spaces.  - rac1, Oct 17, 2015

I am so sorry, Ann, I thought I could fix it. It's a beautiful post. I don't know why you can't get the last picture. - sanlee, Oct 20, 2015

I hope you don't mind that I put in another one. You can change it if you want. - sanlee, Oct 20, 2015

I knew it! I knew it! Your posts your sayings and your pictures are truly amazing. Wow!♥♥ - Daniela2041, Oct 20, 2015

Sandy--You put in one of the pictures? Your style and Anns are indistinguishable--both super wonderful! - Daniela2041, Oct 20, 2015

It looks just like I remember making it, but I worked forever trying to get one that would show at the end. Perhaps it vanished after I checked it. Thanks for your help, Sandy. - AnnRon, Oct 20, 2015

Oh, I see the difference. The one I thought I'd managed to post looked like this one but said "felicitaciones." - AnnRon, Oct 20, 2015

You are welcome, Sanlee :) I just wish Daniela would read my post and leave a lovely comment - FELIZ77, Oct 18, 2015

She seems to be ignoring my post :( - FELIZ77, Oct 18, 2015

Sorry, I think I wrote a comment and forgot to push the "comment" button. I do that all the time. Absent minded profesora. Sometimes I come back to see if someone has responded to my comment, and it's not there. (Big sigh!) ♥♥ - Daniela2041, Oct 18, 2015

:) - sanlee, Oct 18, 2015

Daniella, I accept your apology as I said in my Pm to you, today (please read it!) ..no worries :) - FELIZ77, Oct 19, 2015

Sometimes I appear to be logged into SpanishDict and to be here but it is just easier for me not to log out, so that I can access SD more quickly next time ! - FELIZ77, Oct 19, 2015

@Feliz: yes, I am truly sorry about that. It's not my practice to ignore anybody, especially my very close SD friends and brothers in Christ. I wanted to thank you for your kind words in your post, and also thank you for your wonderful comments you always - Daniela2041, Oct 19, 2015

Answer 9

You work hard to teach and correct and deserve this celebration and much more. Your posts are always professional and beautifully done. A heartfelt thanks from me to you. We love you and never want to let you leave. You are amazing!!!

¡Qué rosa más bonita! - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

Very nice, Rac! - sanlee, Oct 18, 2015

Answer 10

I am on a mobile device that does not provide me with the symbols necessary to do much (and that makes cut and paste and edit near impossible). So I will have to add pictures tomorrow when I get home.

I really appreciate the help you have given me. I am always amazed by the true bilinguals here, who give their time without having anything they need to learn in exchange. You clearly love to teach, and I am sure your students benefit from your dedication as much as we do.

Thank you for everything you do here.

Oh, Bosque (Dr. Kaku):) You are sooo welcome. - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

Answer 11

May we call you "Dani" or do you prefer "Daniela"? Either way, you are an amazing woman, obviously very accomplished. And very importantly, THANK YOU for your service to our country!

You have certainly helped me a lot with my Spanish, and you've got a wonderful street sense and humor about it.

If you ever make it down to New Orleans, Rac1 and I will take you for some good food, a few drinks, and some music and dancing. Sound good? (Didn't mean to presume, Rac. Are you in?)

I'll post some pics when the tool bar comes back.

Hi, Wink: "Dani" is fine. Some people don't know me by that name. A lot of folks call me "Ziva" for obvious reasons. - Daniela2041, Oct 17, 2015

Answer 13

Congratulations dearest friend , I shall say more when I am home. Big love.

I have been having a hard time trying to post this for Dani not only because SD

has been playing up for me but because the list of accomplishments of this

Beautiful young woman extraordinaire are so astounding that I did not know where

to begin . But most of you have done it all for me which leaves me to say that

perhaps the most important attribute that Dani has is her compassion for all

sentient beings and her driving desire to impart knowledge from her brilliant

mind , we have all been winners there. Her friendship has been an elixir of

health for me over the past months . Thank you for being one of our most

valued and hard working members .Felicidades leyenda de SD

Bueno, mi amor. te veo luego. - Daniela2041, Oct 18, 2015
