Y ahorita esta lloviendo y lloviendo y lloviendo....

pues aqui en Monterrey no cantamos mal las rancheras, una vez hubo tormenta electrica, lluvia torrencial y granizada el mismo dia

de hecho, hay una toma que hizo un camarografo de canal 2 donde un rayo surge detras del cerro de la silla ( ) de abajo hacia arriba

we don't use insane literally translated (inano), and i think that the phrase "this is insane" is used much either...

when replying to someone's suggestion/other, (like: -will you do this for me? -no! you're insane") it's estás loco (you're mad)

otherwise, we just put in a swear or something (eg, puta! ni me podrría imaginar tanto calor! )

Oh ok, yea i wasn't sure if that was correct or not, I was going for a "Thats insane/crazy" type of thing.
Thanks for the advice, i'll remember that next time it comes up.

By the way, I couldn't find a translation for Podrria (I don't know how to make the unique "I" you used)


Ha I should find some way to get ahold of some spanish swear words , haven't had any practice with them at all. my school won't teach them



Carlos - Huh, didn't know that. Do those stretch pretty far inland? Where I'am we don't get any ocean related storms, too far inland, they all die out far befor they get close.

Edit -----
so does it get the whole spinning affect monsoons have? How big of tides does it create? seen home videos (We got shows named "You gotta see this" etc where they show home video footage of cool stuff people caught on tape, and I seem to remember watching one with a huge title wave crashing down due some sort of storm near a hispanic city.

[Unspeakable Horror]

HsFB, it´s the biggest thing I could think of
no tidal waves here... at least for now

podrria = podría "be able to, can, may" From Babylon translator.

[Poogas]

Well thats good to hear, lol, but yea when higher tides was mentioned that video just poped into my head, so I had to ask

Babylon translator? Do you have a link to that? I don't think i've tried that one yet.

[N35t0r]

sorry, my typo on podría/podrría...

and as for the sudestada, nah no tidal waves, but the wind will increase the tide level by about 5 meters per two knots of wind (if blowing from the correct direction)...

El truco para (sobre)vivir en verano en Sevilla es aprovechar las noches: yo duermo 4 horas, y despues de comer me pego unas siestas monumentales...

Ufff, Dentro de quince dias playita: Cádiz, Roche, Los C@ños de Meca.......

[Poogas]

HsFB - thats ok for life of me I couldn't figure out what that word ment! and since the double rr is common in spanish I didn't even think about it being a typo.
Ha, i know what it means now though!

Niessuh - ¿ Durante el verano Ud duerme durante 4 horas?

Durante el verano básicamente entro en la hibernación y duermo todo el día... por lo menos la mayor parte de ello

Bienvenido, Poogas

Tu español es bueno (mejor que mi inglés), y aquí mejorarás mucho

BTW, a Spanish trick: the 'rr' could only appear between vowels like in

perro (dog) or carro (car in South American)

Don't confuss the words with rr with the words with a single r

- perro (dog), pero (but)
- carro (car in South American), caro (expensive)

El Awrence - Gracias
¡¡Sí no mi momento mejor!! Esto era antes hasta Me molesté a en comprobar si el traductor lo hiciera correctamente (doblo la comprobación ahora)
Mi español es todavía bastante pobre aunque

¡¿Ah bien, whats un extranjero (para???) hacer?!?!

[Zcylen]

WTF??? what are you guys doing???

ignore them poogas, the first and most important thing you must learn if you are trying to talk in spanish is:
learn bad words

once you master this keys of comunication you're done, the rest is piece of cake

[Poogas]

Lol!!!! ha thats great

Same thing with English, well atleast if you live in a big city, seeing how in public areas thats all that is spoken


But I agree, learning swear words is a must!


Anyone know if the Moderator(s) of the forum would mind a discussion of the fine art of Swearing in Spanish?

[yaroslav]

No creo que le importe. El cerrará la thread si lo cree conveniente...

[In English: I think that he has no complains. He will close the thread if he don't want the topic]

Do you want the English translations or prefer all-in-Spanish messages?

[Unspeakable Horror]

www.babylon.com
It´s a program that runs in windows taskbar. Very useful if you want to translate words, but not full paragraphs.

[Poogas]

Either is fine, if its all in Spanish I can figure it out maybe not all the way but I understand most of what is being said, which is pretty fun, I don't get the opportunity often, But if it goes into something complicated, a English translation would be nice , but not a must by any means.

All in all, Either is fine, I'm a guest on your board / forum so don't do any more work than you want to on my behalf You guys trying to read my attempts at spanish is work enough i'm guessing


¿y usted? ¿qué lengua usted preferiría?


Carlos - Thanks, i'll give it a try. Quick translations are always a pleasure
