danballforums.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=qwertyboard&action=display&thread=5700&page=1Pensé que esta era la mejor manera de explicar. Lo gracioso es que, esta vez, al igual que la última vez, fue por casualidad cerca de Cinco de Mayo. Así que, sí. Es una cosa accidental anual, y decidí ponerme nostálgico y hacerlo de nuevo. Yo ni siquiera sabía que era un año después de la anterior, o que estaba cerca del Cinco de Mayo, cuando me decidí a ir con él.

You are one of my favorite members, but honestly, you can be a pain in the rear.

¿Hablabas español acerca del cinco de mayo? Que interesante...
He olvidado que hoy es el cinco de mayo, el día de la independencia económica de Francia.

Surely, you can understand a majority of what I stated, no? ¿Hablabas español acerca del cinco de mayo? Que interesante... He olvidado que hoy es el cinco de mayo, el día de la independencia económica de Francia. In the first sentence, "español" should make you think "Spanish." Then, "cinco de mayo" should be obvious, thanks to American celebration of Mexican Economic Independence from France Day. "Interesante" is a cognate, meaning an English speaker should instantly recognize that as being "interesting." You should see at least the following... Compare to the following... In the second sentence, "hoy" may or may not be identified by monolingual English speakers as "today." "Es" is "is," "el cinco de mayo" is obvious, and "la independencia económica de Francia" is composed of cognates, with the exception of "la" and "de." You should see at least the following... Compare to the following...

No. No I did not. I saw a language other than English and decided not to read it.

Phail GV. Hablaba does mean you were speaking. You should have gone with Hablaste, because it is the preterit (past-tense) form of 'You speak'.

Preterite indicates a point of time in the past. Imperfect indicates a duration of time in the past. I intended to use the past imperfect tense to indicate QwertyuiopThePie's time speaking Spanish in the past, which lasted longer than some instantaneous moment.
You need not worry, I do not fail...

just because you can speak some oriental language, doesn't mean you have to use it randomly. None of us understood that message, and we don't intend to bother translating it. I don't, anyway. Plus, Proboards only allows English forums.Why are you randomly changing names anyways?

Randomly changing names? I changed once. Anyway, they changed the ToS to allow other languages. The "don't intend to translate" doesn't apply in this case, because I provided the translation.
Anyway, I really only intended this to see who would say "Oh no, not this again". I have no interest in continuing.

Yeah, well, "ThePie" in your name is still that sickly green/mint/tinted color. Totally nasty. Make it normal again, AND MAKE IT FLASH LIKE IT IS SUPPOSED TO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meh, the flash code is broken, and no amount of scraping will remove the black parts there isn't any point fixing it for one name.
