Jul 25th En bra sang

Måtte bare dele denne.. Bra låt..


Og denne da. Det er jo ikke 2 mesterskap lengre. Det er 3.

Jun 27th På kontraskjæret

Og ser semifinalen mellom Spania og Portugal. Mange mennesker her.

Apr 19th Og om utendørs henne

Ja, det er vel så langt jeg kom. Oppdraget var å oversette en sang som heter “Y si fuera ella”.
Vel, jeg ga opp. Men jeg googlet opp dette, og fant ut at det er en del som klarte dette oppdraget. Og hvert femte år så møtes de for å briefe om hva de kan. Fant en video fra deres siste møte her. Man kan se læreren Alejandro Sanz styre showet.

Vel, neste gang de møtes skal jeg vite hva de sier. Kanskje jeg får ringside seats også??

Apr 14th Grand Prix reklame

Hør det spanske bidraget til årets melodi grand prix her. Den får ihvertfall min stemme. Har forsøkt meg på en oversettelse nedenfor.

Og om du synes at denne teksten var kvalmende romantisk.. I spansk målestokk er vel dette mer som et oppsummerende referat fra et kort og følelsesløst møte med en fra det motsatte kjønn.

Om denne sangen falt i smak så anbefales også “La mala costumbre” fra samme artist.

Mar 28th ¿cómo se dice “computer” en Español?

A Spanish teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.”House” for instance, is feminine: “la casa.””Pencil,” however, is masculine: “el lápiz.”

A student asked, “What gender is ‘computer’?”

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether “computer” should be a masculine or a feminine noun. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

The men’s group decided that “computer” should definitely be of the Feminine gender (“la computadora”), because:
1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;
3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and,
4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

The women’s group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine (“el computador”), because:
1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;
2. They have a lot of data but still can’t think for themselves;
3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and
4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

The women won. #
