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 speakers 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 like Chevy Chase. I should see it. :) - Sassette, Jun 11, 2017
Hi Amber...I was referring to AnnRon's disappearing post- which gave me the inspiration. (Actually I was surprised when my "invisible man" poster made his appearance: - ) - Esteban_317, Jun 11, 2017

Hay interpretaciones veraniegas muy interesantes, pero siempre la audiencia corre el riesgo de una tormenta.

There are very interesting summer performances, but the audience always takes the risk of a storm.

Great post, Kat! I agree with Ray's correction. :):) - rac1, Jun 11, 2017
Thanks Ray - porcupine7, Jun 11, 2017

We all vacation in Hawaii, so we have at least a rudimentary warm-weather wardrobe. :-) - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017
Hi Ann and Esteban , vacation in Melbourne and you will need both summer and winter ropas on the one day. - ray76, Jun 11, 2017
It must be warm there at some point. - rac1, Jun 11, 2017
"no tuvo" - mstivers, Jun 11, 2017
Thanks mstivers for weighing in...The English thought was "didn't have" .... rather than "had no" [summer clothes] which tuvo would render it.... I was thinking of a time when I had lived three yr. in AK & was In CA for summer camp i- tenía better? ? - Esteban_317, Jun 11, 2017
maybe tenía is better - mstivers, Jun 11, 2017

In the summer season, I stay hydrated by drinking two liters to a gallon of water. En la temporada veraniega, me quedo hidratado a bebiendo desde dos litros hasta un galón de agua.

Very important to do so. - rac1, Jun 11, 2017
I think it should be "desde dos litros hasta un galón"... or "de...a"... but not "de...por." - mstivers, Jun 11, 2017

Un sábado, hace unos cuantos años, decidimos ir a la playa para evitar el calor veraniego, pero parecía que todo el mundo tenía la misma idea, y después de horas sin mucho progreso, nos dimos por vencido, tomamos una salida y fuimos a un pub lleno de pícaros en una pueblo pequeño.

One Saturday, a few years back, we decided to go to the beach to avoid the summer heat but it seemed that the whole world had the same idea, and after hours without much progress we gave up, took an exit and went to a pub full of roguish people in a small town.

I've tried twice to post my response. It shows perfectly in the preview, but it comes up empty. I edited the first try, put in a new pic, and it made another empty post. Please delete both. I'll try later. - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017
Ok Ann...I've been having a little trouble too, but seems ok now. They must be doing updates. - rac1, Jun 11, 2017
I tried again and got the same empty box. :-( - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017
Maybe it will work now Ann -I tried an experimental post, and it appeared! - Esteban_317, Jun 11, 2017
I'll report this to the techs. - rac1, Jun 11, 2017
A badge for your efforts. :) - Sassette, Jun 11, 2017
Thanks, everyone. - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017
Ah! Success at last! - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017
Great. You have a lot more patience than I do. - Sassette, Jun 11, 2017
I think it's due to a lag that your post doesn't appear on the screen. - NKM1974, Jun 11, 2017
Well, seventeen hours later it still hadn't appeared—or do I misunderstand what you mean by a lag—but when I reposted it this morning it appeared instantly. - AnnRon, Jun 11, 2017

Durante las vacaciones veraniegas todo el mundo quiere pasar dos o tres semanas a la playa. Por eso, el pueblo donde vivo está lleno de turistas en enero.

During the summer holidays everyone wants to spend two or three weeks at the beach. Because of this, the town where I live is full of tourists in January.

Okay. One thing that's going on is I've been spending so much time with the graphics that I've neglected my place. So I'm getting into Spring, er, Summer cleaning. :) - Sassette, Jun 11, 2017
