Answer 4

Come on boys SD is in need of our help !

Vamos chicos SD necesitan nuestra ayuda!

Answer 5

¡Oiga! Hombre, esos perritos son nuestros bebés, ¡no los meta en el horno¡

Hey Man! Those puppies are our babies. Don't you be putting them in the oven!

"you be putting" is American slang for "put"

Pronunciation is: don chu bi put'n 'm

Well that is what we say here mate also , so I doubt that it is American slang but I could be wrong . Incidentally they do eat dogs there and have restaurants that specialise in them . - ray76, May 15, 2017

Ray: I wasn't sure how widespread this type of usage is. How about: I be real tired today. (instead of "am") That is generally only said in ghetto-talk here. How about down under? - DilKen, May 15, 2017

Answer 8

Si lloviendo gatos y perros, también podría poner un cubo.

If it's raining cats and dogs, you might as well put out a bucket.

Lol Kristin, you need the verb 'estar' to form the present progressive tense: Si ESTÁ lloviendo a cántaros = If it is 'raining cats and dogs' It is an idiom so cannot be translated literally! The translation I have given you is one of at least two options - FELIZ77, May 15, 2017

It is the one I remember most easily! I hope this helps ::) - FELIZ77, May 15, 2017

On my theme, but much better done, wish I had thought of it. :) - bosquederoble, May 15, 2017
