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.

Tu hábito es ser puntual, pero si tu vuelo no es puntual, puedes ser puntual para tu reunión? Nuestras vidas están vinculadas a muchos otros factores.

Your habit is to be punctual, but if your flight is not punctual, can you be punctual for your meeting? Our lives are linked to so many other factors.

Han vinculado un número de casos de enfermedad de E. coli a con la cadena de restaurantes “Chipotle Mexican Grill”; aunque hay uno en mi pueblo nunca he comido allí porque cuando miré el menú decidí que no era probable que cocinaran cualquier ninguno de los platos mejor que mi esposa.

They have linked a number of cases of illness from E. coli to the restaurant chain “Chipotle Mexican Grill”; although there is one in my town I never have eaten there because when I looked at the menu I decided that is was not likely that they would cook any of the dishes better than my wife.
