What is going on? En español

JPablo's corrections are accurate, though I think "anything suspicious about her" would sound better than "with her".

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the corrections.

I will correct all my errors.
Yes I will train my dog.

Thank you, Gina. (That's the advantage of being a native speaker...) (There is something good with that... although here I guess I can say there is something good about being a native speaker, too. Right?)

Good, CrOtALiTo.
In Spanish you say, "Sí, entrenaré a mi perro".

Yet, you don't have to 'translate' literally that "a" into English, that's why I've deleted the "to". (Do not ask me much about the theory of it, but that's the way the cookie crumbles...) (Así son las cosas)

¿Qué onda? [what's up?]

for my much enthusiasm, I decided today, to change my facebook language to spanish so I could see how I am able to manage; I did well. Infact, it was as though I have been taking spanish for sometime now. then I saw something like ''¿Qué estás pensando?'' and not the ''¿Qué está pasando?'' above which I had already memorised. Is there any difference or are they both saying the same thing?

[JPablo]

Nope!
''¿Qué estás pensando?'' means "What are you thinking about?"

Which just reminded me an interesting joke I saw in youtube...



Hope you enjoyed it!

You're welcome

Yes, "something good about" would be better there.

¡Gracias, Gina!

I got it Pablo.

Así son las cosas.

When I want to chance the road of the English, I want to go for the correct road.
