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. For the Spanish sentences, edit your posts according to the native Spanish speaker's suggestions. 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.

It's evident that blood is thicker than water,

But when we are thirsty,we ask for water.

Whether it's blood or water, it doesn't matter,

Be kind to one another and make the world better.

Es evidente que la sangre es más espesa que el agua,

Pero cuando estamos sediento, buscamos el agua.

Si es la sangre o el agua, no importa,

Se amable el uno al otro y hacer el mundo mejor.

Wonderful entry, amiga. ♥ - rac1, Oct 23, 2015
Hola mi hermana! Muy bien hecho :-)! - Jraider, Oct 23, 2015
Well, in a crisis, remeber that blood is much more nourishing, **** any vampire will tell you! - annierats, Oct 23, 2015
¡Ay, Annie! ¡Qué chistoso! ♥ - Daniela2041, Oct 23, 2015

Sorry about the asterisks, it happens sometimes if I have the keyboard in Swedish and I don't notice until too late. I'm too lazy to rewrite long comments. - annierats, Oct 24, 2015

Love your post mate , but actually the world is a much safer place now , just think on the strides that women have made in the past 50 years , they are safer and more in charge than at any time in history . - ray76, Oct 24, 2015
In the 'west' Ray, but not in most of the world, sadly. Dani you are right, and the environmental problems will get worse, and trigger more wars and refugees from both.. - jennysk, Oct 24, 2015
I agree with Dani and Jenny. It is all getting worse. I'm not trying to be negative, just realistic, but still I am not living in fear. - rac1, Oct 24, 2015
I think things are overall better. Fewer people live in poverty than ever before, and although there are areas of conflict, fewer people dying in wars. And a thermonuclear holocaust is much less likely than during the Cold War. So I am optimistic. - mstivers, Oct 24, 2015
But I am concerned about the environment. - mstivers, Oct 24, 2015
How about "Patricia?" They're saying that it's the worst hurricane ever to hit the Northern hemisphere. - Daniela2041, Oct 24, 2015
I think it's just that now we know aout all the disaster, overall we have more food and things are better. I join Mstivers on this one. - annierats, Oct 24, 2015
The number of hurricanes measured since the beginning of time is tiny, Dani, I would bet there have been masses worse, maybe during the last global warming period.. - annierats, Oct 24, 2015

Todos sabemos que no debemos guardar nuestras contraseñas secretas y claves de acceso en un cuaderno en un cajón del escritorio y claro, no debemos utilizar los nombres de nuestras máscotas como claves pero es evidente que yo no soy la única persona que lo hace aúnque que sea estúpido.

We all know that we shouldn't keep our secret passwords and user-names in a notebook in a desk-drawer , and of course, we shouldn't use the names of our pets as pass-words but it's obvious that I'm not the only person who does this even though it may be stupid.

Gracias Raj. I thought that "signo" was feminine ;-)! - Jraider, Oct 23, 2015

Aunque todo el mundo estudia la ciencia general en escuela secundaria, dado la tendencia de muchas personas ignorar hechos y creer lo que quieren creer, es evidente que pensar lógicamente es demasiado difícil para ellos.

Although everyone studies general science in secondary school, given the tendency of many people to ignore facts and believe what they want to believe, it is evident that thinking logically is too difficult for them.

Al fin del siglo 19, se hizo evidente que la física clásica no podía explicar el espectro de la radiación electromagnética que se emitía de un cuerpo negro, y Max Planck tuvo que explicarlo usando el concepto del cuanto, pero lo que no fue tan evidente era qué tan extraño sería la física que iba a desarrollarse de este concepto.

At the end of the 19th century, it became evident that classic physics was not able to explain the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation that was emitted from a black body, and Max Planck had to explain it using the concept of quanta, but what was not so evident was how very strange the physics that was to be developed from this concept would be.

Okay the bets are on- which of my verb forms at the end of the sentence- fue-era-sería- iba - are correct and which not. Just kidding, I don't gamble, but if I did I would guess maybe era should also be fue?. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 23, 2015
My money goes on ' no era evidente', but then I'm willing to risk one euro, betting and you're cautious! - annierats, Oct 23, 2015
You might be right as I think about it. Fue vs. era is one of the hardest things for me. It may be the hardest, period. :) - bosquederoble, Oct 23, 2015
I like your verbs, just as they are. :-) - Daniela2041, Oct 23, 2015
Are you sure that you're not a native speaker? Hmmmmmmmmmm? - Daniela2041, Oct 23, 2015
Very interesting bosque :-)! - Jraider, Oct 23, 2015
Thanks, Daniela. If you heard my "ere" and "erre" it would be very obvious. I am actually tempted to post a recording for you to make suggestions- it is obvious from what you write that you are skilled at teaching gringos how to improve their pronunciat - bosquederoble, Oct 23, 2015

Dani, would you use ' prueba' ? - annierats, Oct 24, 2015
Prueba is more of a legal term, (for evidence) and it would nof fulfil the rules of this game, evidentemente. :) - Daniela2041, Oct 24, 2015
