Do you need a Pen pal?
Hi Tyler I can help you with Spanish. For the beginning you can write me about what are you learning in your Spanish class or how can you go to the College and fron this short story I can write you in Spanish and some explanations in English.
I have 2 penpals now in cero (0) and two advance and write frequently.
Hope to know from you,
Mary

Translation of a Vietnamese letter needed - into English or German
Hello everyone!
I hope there's a Vietnamese-speaking person out there. I have a letter here which needs to be translated, I'd scan it and send it by email. I used to sponsor a little girl in Vietnam but the sponsorship ended because the family didn't need the help anymore. However, now I've received a letter and can't read it and there's nobody who I could ask for a translation. The letter is one page long, written by the mother, plus half a page written by a 7-years old girl. I suppose it's not difficult to read and I don't need a perfect translation, just some info about the content. There seems to be an address at the end of the letter, so if I had the possibility to continue writing to the family, I'd love to do so but do need someone for the translations - so any volunteers are welcome! By the way, I'm German, so a translation into German is also possible, course!
Greetings, Daniela

Re:Indirect and direct Objects
This will be a very basic explanation Direct object: First and foremost you must know the gendre and number of the noun, ie, if it’s female, masculine, plural or singular.
If the noun is singular and masculine, you replace it by LO, whereas if it’s plural you replace it by LOS ( before the verb) Compré un LIBRO >>> LO compré (I bought it) Compré tres LIBROS >>> LOS compré(I bought them) No compré el LIBRO >>> No LO compré. (I did’t buy it) No compré los LIBROS >>> No LOS compré. ( I did’t buy them)
If the noun is singular and feminine , you replace it by LA, whereas if it’s plural you replace it by LAS.
Horneé una TORTA >>> LA horneé Horneé unas TORTAS >>> LAS horneé (Negative form as above: No LA horneé/ No LAS horneé)
Indirect object: ( it replaces the structure ‘preposition + alguien/algo’) You replace the structure by LE ( singular form) or LES (plural form) regardless of the gendre.
Puse un moño AL PAQUETE >>> LE puse un moño. Puse unos moños A LOS PAQUETES >>> LES puse unos moños. Hablé CON LA NIÑA >>>LE hablé Hablé CON LAS NIÑAS >>> LES hablé (negative form as above : No LE hablé/ No LES hablé)
Hope it helps you!!!!!!!
Remeber that la, las, los are also used as articles

Re:What's the English for...
Thank you all for your replies. So, I guess "sleeping bus" is an awful invention!
