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.

Submarines have improved over the last few decades. The first submarines could only submerge for 24 hours or less and would take years to travel short distances. While today's can be submerged for over a year or two and travel around the world in just a few months.

Submarinos han mejorado en las últimas décadas. Los primeros submarinos sólo podían sumergir durante 24 horas o menos y tendrían que pasar años para viajar distancias cortas. Por eso hoy puede ser sumergido por más de un año o dos y viajar alrededor del mundo en apenas unos meses.

Aunque varias empresas han intentado construir hoteles submarinos, parece que es muy difícil, y de lo que yo sepa, todavía sólo hay unas pocas habitaciones y no hoteles enteros debajo del mar.

Although several companies have tried to construct submarine hotels, it seems that it is very difficult, and from what I know, there are still only a few rooms and no entire hotels below the sea.
