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.

The fact that he lost interest in his family should have told him something. Thanks, Ann. - rac1, Sep 2, 2017

La literatura latinoamericana a menudo contiene historias místicas. Cuando lo hace, generalmente no tengo idea de lo que está pasando.

Latin-American literature often contains mystical storylines. When it does, I generally don't have any idea what's happening.

I wonder why they say that cats have nine lives, maybe there is something mystic about them. I bet they know it and that's why they act like loyal blood magicians.

Me pregunto porqué dicen que los gatos tienen nueve vidas, tal vez hay algo místico sobre ellos. Apuesto que lo saben y por eso actúan como magos de sangre real.

Para muchas personas la vida cotidiana y ordinaria no es suficiente, quieren algo en sus vidas con una dimensión mística. Puede ser una religion establecida o quizás otra actividad espiritual como la meditación.

For many people , ordinary daily life is not enough, they want something in their lives with a mystic dimension. It could be an established religion or perhaps another spiritual activity like meditation.

Como ya ha dicho el señor Ray, los robles son místicos y poderosos, y aunque hay otros árboles muy importantes, supongo que la mayoría sospecha que tengo una predilección por los robles. Ya tengo un roble de tres metros en una maceta para el jardín de la nueva casa de mi hija, y tengo otro de un metro y medio para la otra hija si decide comprar una casa.

As Ray has already said, oaks are mystic and powerful, and although there are other very important trees, I suppose the majority suspect that I have a penchant for the oaks. I already have a ten foot oak in a pot for the garden of my daughter’s new house, and I have another four to five foot one for the other daughter if she decides to buy a house.

This looks like a park we have here. It used to be filled with those trees until Katrina. We still have quite a few though. They are very old, like the one in your picture. :) - rac1, Sep 2, 2017

No había nada místico con respecto a Alejandro, él quería las mismas cosas que la mayoría de los hombres jóvenes desean.

There was nothing mystical about Alejandro, he wanted the same things that most young men desire.
