Answer 1

Gracias a todos por las felicitaciones, son (sois) tan amables. Pero más importante, gracias a todos por estar aquí y por ayudar a crear un entorno tan conducente al aprendizaje. Es más difícil aprender en soledad, y los comentarios son cruciales para reconocer lo que uno no sabe. Y por supuesto, creo que las interacciones nos animan a aprender más. Como dije en algún mensaje en algún hilo de juego- jugar es divertido pero también es un método importante para aprender.

Thank you everyone for the congratulations, you all are so kind. But more important, thanks to everyone for being here and for helping to create an environment so conducive to learning. It is difficult to learn in solitude, and comments are crucial for recognizing what one does not know. And of course, I think that the interactions encourage us to learn more. As I said in some post in some gamer thread- play is fun but it also is an important method of learning.

Thanks again, for all you do to help make SD a great place to learn. - Esteban_317, Jul 23, 2017

I totally agree with that. Thank you so much for everything you do. :) - rac1, Jul 24, 2017

Answer 7

Anyone who knows bosquederoble knows that when it comes to learning Spanish and helping others to learn, he's pretty

If there were a Spanish-learning Olympic event, bosque would win all three medals.

Hyperbole aside, bosque, I want to say

for patiently offering suggestions to correct my bonehead mistakes day after day after day. I always learn from your corrections, your answers, and your posts. And not just Spanish. You have a world of facts at your command and 200,000 reputation points under your belt, not to mention the learning points and badges.

Thanks, Ann. I quite enjoy interacting with you on the threads, and admit I tend to agree with a lot of what you have to say. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 21, 2017

Thanks Ann for the very creative and insightful post. - Esteban_317, Jul 21, 2017

Agree with me? No wonder I find you so perspicacious. ;-) - AnnRon, Jul 21, 2017

Yep That's the idea - 00376109, Jul 22, 2017

Answer 9

Thanks for all you do on SD amigo.

Muy bien hecho Bosque.

Thanks, Ian, and thanks for all you do as well. Today reminds us it is not just the threads, we get spam attacks that have to be dealt with as well. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 21, 2017

An excellent point, Bosque. Thanks to the mods for keeping us safe in a dangerous world. - jtaniel, Jul 21, 2017

Thanks Ian, for these sentiments, and for so much more that you do for all of us on SD. - Esteban_317, Jul 21, 2017

Spam attacks are back - Ray has been fighting and banning and deleting them all by himself while Amber and I have been asleep. - ian-hill, Jul 22, 2017

Answer 10

Excellent Bosque. You deserve all the plaudits. This pic is me raising one to you. It's only 10:50 in the AM, and I'm at work, so I'll wait a few hours before taking the scab off. Cheers mate

Thanks jellonz for joining the festivities in honor of Bosque; both now and later. - Esteban_317, Jul 21, 2017

Cheers Esteban. Great post :) - jellonz, Jul 21, 2017

Thanks, it looks quite good.I have been quite happy that I am seeing you increasingly more often on this site. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 21, 2017

Cheers Bosque. I've not tried this one yet so should be interesting. I love finding a new beer. Had I known your 200K celebration was today I'd have bought their double I P A instead in your honour. Maybe at the 300K mark I'll do that. Cheers :) - jellonz, Jul 22, 2017

I P A = Indian Pale Ale - just for those who don't know that. :) - ian-hill, Jul 22, 2017

Wow, you made me realize there might be people who didn't know that Ian. Where I live of course everyone knows IPAs are the ones for the hop freaks. Every menu has the A B V and the I B U for the 20-30 beers they offer. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 22, 2017

Answer 11

Congratulations to a 200K legend.

Sorry mate past my bedtime , this old timer will return in the morning.

---

There must be something that a member has missed in their congratulations

but I doubt it so I can only add to it by saying that it has been an honour and

privilege working with you mate , I am sure that there would have been times

that you could have monstered some hapless member and told them to

"pull ya head in ya mug" but you never have , you just quietly offer corrections

and help us all in our 'quest' . So thank you dear friend I don't know how you

achieve all you have and still maintain the common touch and fill sixty seconds

worth of distance run. Thanks mate and 200 K Legend.

Pleasant dreams Ray - ☼ - Esteban_317, Jul 21, 2017

Thanks Steve it is 12 . 23 A M here . - ray76, Jul 21, 2017

Thanks Ray, I think a portion of those points came from votes from you on your take on, drop one thread. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 21, 2017

I guess that you went on the "Oregon Trail " - ray76, Jul 22, 2017

I do not mean the original one though . - ray76, Jul 22, 2017

Actually came to Oregon up interstate 5. Not along the Columbia. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 23, 2017

And there was me thinking you were one of the early pioneers like "Rowdy " . - ray76, Jul 24, 2017

Answer 12

Always nice to read you Bosque, cheers

It's great to have you return patch... - Esteban_317, Jul 21, 2017

It is very nice to have you back. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 21, 2017

Answer 13

Hola, Bosque. I think that you and a few others are just about ready to join the ranks of the native hispanohablantes here. ¡Muchas felicidades!

Aww can I come too , I wanna join de Klub . - ray76, Jul 22, 2017

: - ) ... - Esteban_317, Jul 22, 2017

Thanks Daniela, I really appreciate all the help you give here, and your wonderful lessons on how to approach the trouble spots that we have. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 22, 2017

Answer 14

Maybe you will have less time now you have a new generation to inspire in your family?

I am so impressed at the answers on a wide range of subjects. Some are erudite, some are witty all make us feel more knowledgeable or better.

Is he a man who cannot see the wood for the trees, the forest for the trees of course not, he is wise.

He has obtained a shed load of points ( continuing the wood theme!) in all areas. I have yet to obtain any learning points, which is probably why his Spanish is so good and mine less so.

Step back for a moment and bask in your moment of glory. Thank you for making the forum more useful and enjoyable and treating people's questions as important

Thanks Mardle - amusing cartoons, and xery well said. - ☼ - Esteban_317, Jul 23, 2017

Ah but your starting thread is ,'a might wonder' - Mardle, Jul 23, 2017

Thanks Mardle, and thanks for setting such a nice example of how to redirect people with the utmost of politeness. I am glad to see you starting to participate in some of the games. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 23, 2017

Thankyou - Mardle, Jul 23, 2017

Answer 15

Fantastic effort mate, well done! You have obviously learnt a great deal because your Spanish is very impressive.

Correct and concise - thanks billygoat. - ☼ - Esteban_317, Jul 23, 2017

Thanks, it is great to see you butt your way back in with your great sense of humor. :) - bosquederoble, Jul 23, 2017
