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 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 thank you for your thread about those who are hurting our site. I'm confused too why anyone would go out of their way to hurt us. I did not have a chance to vote for you because it was closed. :) - Sassette, Aug 27, 2017

It's the after effects that are no so relaxing. - rac1, Aug 27, 2017
Sure do. I'm old school.... who needs shrinks, councelling, relaxation therapy or whatever else.... beer and good old chat with your mates cures everything :) - billygoat, Aug 27, 2017
Moderation Amber :) I'm with you Billy. And Heidi, I remember an ad here with an impossible dream girl. At the end of it she turns down a flowery drink and says "I only drink beer." Music to a Kiwi bloke's ears :) - jellonz, Aug 27, 2017

Para mi, ver a la television no es relajante. Prefiero leer un buen libro. Otra manera es sentarme en un lugar bonito afuera y escuchar a los pájaros.

For me, watching television is not relaxing. I prefer to read a good book. Another way is to sit in a beautiful place outside and listen to the birds.
