Welcome to La Palabra Del Día

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.

I don't know if this will be a pattern but I like seeing the new assignment pop up closely after the new word is listed on SD. It gives me more opportunity to post at a time when more people will eventually view it. - Sassette, Feb 17, 2017

Answer 4

Tengo una corozonada mala del extraño por que se ve peligroso y parece que está hablando solo.

I have a bad feeling about that stranger because he looks dangerous and it seems like he's talking to himself.

I have a bad feeling about this. lol - rac1, Feb 17, 2017

I would have written "hablando sí mismo." Only someone who has better Spanish skills than me can provide verification on the correct way to write "talking to himself." - Sassette, Feb 17, 2017

According to my research it is "hablando consigo" or for greater emphasis "hablando consigo mismo". - mstivers, Feb 17, 2017

"Hablando solo" is perfect everyday Spanish. "hablando sí mismo" never. "hablando consigo" is missing "mismo", so it would be "hablando consigo mismo" very formal Spanish. - DoctorSpanish, Feb 17, 2017

Go with your gut :-)! - Jraider, Feb 17, 2017

Thanks, DoctorSpanish. - Sassette, Feb 17, 2017
