How do you do accents on this board? Word has the "Symbol" option, but I don't see it here. And especial can be translated as "special" and "spicy", but un nave especial is "a space ship" or "a rocket ship". Mas frases! Hola, me llamo x. Como se llama? Hello, my name is x. What is your name? (Litterally "What do you call yourself?") Prende el televisor! Neil Tyson esta en las noticias! Turn on the TV! Neil Tyson is on the news!

You don't normally use estar with "character" adjectives like "coward", "liar", etc. You could say that character is seen as an essence, rather than a state.

You did not translate LADRON & Babelfish translated into "English" as ladron (!!!) & my Sp-Eng dictionary is locked up in the attic & if ladron means lazy then that"s me!!! :-) But I can say what really matters: Buenas tardes, seniorita. Un tequila blanco et una cerveza "Montejo" por favor. (I am mentally in Merida. Montejo beer (is cerveza male of female?) is the best & you could not find it outside Yucatan years ago, maybe some places in Quintana Roo. Come to think of it, it was so good it must be female!!! :-) |

I've only just noticed this. Strictly speaking, the sentence above does not mean the same as the one below, although the difference is not important. You wrote: "It's not a face on Mars, you fool!"

Thank you again. I'm still learning Spanish, and this is a fun way to practice. Any mistakes in my other two sentences? Oh and:
No existen los fantasmas. Ghosts do not exist.

To recap, here's all of the Spanish I've posted.:
Phil Plait es un scientifico famoso. Phil Plait is a famous scientist. No hay una cara en Marte, estupido! There is not a face on Mars, you ding-dong! SpaceShipOne esta en el museo Smithsonian en Washington. SpaceShipOne is in the Smithsonian museum in Washington. Estas un cobarde, un mentroso, y un ladron! You are a coward, a liar... un moquete A punch in the face No existen fantasmas. Ghosts do not exist. Hola, me llamo x. Como se llama? Hello, my name is x. What is your name? (Litterally "What do you call yourself?") Prende el televisor! Neil Tyson esta en las noticias! Turn on the TV! Neil Tyson is on the news! One more: La placa de Voyager tiene muchas lenguas. The Voyager plaque has many languages.
