Don't want to confuse the issue, as Rusty is doing a great job.

But, following Glen's lead,

¿Qué le dice un pez a otro?

(What does one fish say to another fish?)

¡Nada!

(Ie., - Swim! or Nothing!)

And one person at the swimming pool,

¿Usted no nada nada?

Are you not swimming at all?

No, no traje traje.

No, I didn't bring my swimming trunks.

Traje = "traje de baño" = swimming trunks

"traje" = 1st person past tense of the verb "traer".

(Correct my Henglish, please!)
