Then there isn't meaning inside of the English for the word Dicha.
Fortunate is afortunado. Then that word is different to the word Dicha.

Because that is not the correct translation. That's what wrong with it.
Joy is not good fortune. |

My dictionary gives 2 meanings for 'dicha': (felicidad) happiness (suerte) good luck, good fortune Or did you mean the Spanish sentence was ok, just his translation with 'joy' that wasn't right? Last edited by gsc; March 09, 2012 at 03:17 AM. |

I suppose that you could translate dicha as joy, but as so often happens in English, just because something is grammatically correct it does not mean it is actually used. In the above context, nobody would say joy, surely. Last edited by Perikles; March 09, 2012 at 03:46 AM. |
