Answer 1

Esta es la última foto de una del grupo de campistas, antes de que Sasquatch, de quien ellos se habían burlado todo el día, la lanzara usando la hamaca como tirachinas.

This is the last photo of one of the group of campers, before Sasquatch, whom they had messed with all day, launched her using the hammock as a slingshot.

Link to a sample Messin' with Sasquatch commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUxqcJD82Z4

It will not make sense to anyone who has not seen a "messin' with Sasquatch" commercial. But someone had to take a different tack. :) - bosquederoble, Dec 15, 2015

Haha that is a good one mate . :) - Nickelbackfan1, Dec 15, 2015

(Clearly the person in the photo looks female to me, although it is hard to be absolutely sure). :) - bosquederoble, Dec 15, 2015

I can't see the photo so I can't tell you my opinion but I think his entry is funny still. - Nickelbackfan1, Dec 15, 2015

In English you find out that it is 'she' almost at the end of the sentence :D - Pablo064, Dec 16, 2015

Yes, and some sentences in Spanish don't tell us at all, and different ones in English. Su could be his or her, but one of them has to be una or uno. :) - bosquederoble, Dec 16, 2015

Answer 4

A young lady is trying to relax while sitting on a hammock and talks to the viewers (ie: us): "Oh, hi there, I didn't realize you were already there*! (ie: You had already arrived!) I was deep in thought! (thinking deeply about something!) Forgive me, please, if I seem a little bit 'on edge' right now...I am trying to practise some relaxation techniques my counsellor gave me to (enable me to) overcome my fear of heights! He told me, one day 'You must learn how to confront your worst fears' so I asked, 'if I fall will you be there to catch me?' He just replied, 'Trust me!' Well, I'm still working on that bit!"

Una jovencita está tratando de relajarse mientras está sentado en una hamaca y habla con los telespectadores: << ¡Ay, hola, no me daba cuenta de que ya habían llegado! Pensaba profundamente (o meditaba) de (o en?) algo. ¡Me perdonas si te parezco un poco nervioso ahora mismo...estoy tratando de practicar algunas técnicas para relajarme que mi consejero me dio para permitirme dominar mi miedo a las alturas. Un día, me dijo, tienes que aprender cómo enfentarse a sus peores miedos. Por eso, le dije: ¿si me caera, me agarraría? Sólo dijo: Ten confianza en mi. ¡Bueno, todavía, tengo muchos problemas con esta parte*!

(ie: otras opciones*: todavía, trato de encontrar una solución/ trato de llegar a una solución/trato de resolver/solucionar esta problema ...pero, para mí es muy difícil hacerlo)

..sentadA (jovenvcta)...no me di cuenta..en algo..nerviosA..enfrentarse..si me cayera or '¿de caerme, me agarraría?..

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor

Editor's note/s: 1 Please try to imagine (pretend) that you are actually right there* talking to the young man on the bridge. ...I realize that this will be easier for some of you, like me, than for others! Please just humour me all the same! lol

Hey, Feliz, counselor only has one "L" in it, and you typed a "s" instead of a "d" in "ptsd", btw. (Sorry, I have both "ocd" and "ptsd" :P) - Dogboy1000, Dec 15, 2015

Thanks Dogboy I am using the spelling we have in England/UK we use two ll's. I know that you use only one l in the States, that's also fine by me lol ;) - FELIZ77, Dec 15, 2015

Dog, I am really sorry to hear that you have both ..was the ptsd caused by active service in the forces, by any chance? - FELIZ77, Dec 15, 2015

Answer 15

English:

"I see trees of green, red roses too

I see them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

• I see skies of blue and clouds of white

The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

• The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky

Are also on the faces of people going by

I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do

But they're really saying I love you.

• I hear baby's cry, and I watched them grow

They'll learn much more than I'll ever know

And I think to myself what a wonderful world.

Yes, I think to myself what a wonderful world."

Spanish:

"Veo árboles verdes, rosas rojas también

Veo florecer para mí y usted

Y pienso para mi mismo, qué mundo maravilloso.

• Veo cielos azules y nubes blancas

El bendito día brillante, la noche sagrada oscuridad

Y pienso para mi mismo, qué mundo maravilloso.

• Los colores del arco iris tan bonitos en el cielo

También están en las caras de la gente que pasa

Veo amigos dándose la mano diciendo: ¿cómo se hace

Pero que realmente están diciendo te amo.

• Escucho el llanto de bebé, y yo vi a crecer

Ellos aprenderán mucho más de lo que yo jamás sabré

Y pienso para mi mismo, qué mundo maravilloso.

Sí, me digo a mí mismo que mundo tan maravilloso."
