Anyone willing to check my translation?
I have to give this presentation with a couple of other people tomorrow. I translated it to the best of my ability, but I am sure there are mistakes. It doesn't have to be perfect, but would anyone be willing to check it over for any glaring mistakes? I am taking this in a 5 week course along with 2 other courses and I am about to loose my mind!! :P
Estableceremos un altar o "ofrenda" para Elvis que El centro del altar es una imagen de la persona para ser honorada. Los artículos que representan los intereses de la persona también son colocados en el altar. Elvis es sabido mejor para su música y él tuvo un interés en rápidamente coches. El oro y las joyas representan su personalidad ostentosa. Es el lugar importante el alimento predilecto del difunto en el altar. Todos saben que Elvis tuvo un amor de bocadillos de mantequilla de cacahuete y plátano. El también disfrutó de licor fino. Después de que un viaje largo el espíritu esté sucio y necesitará al jabón para refrescar arriba. La sal es la especia de la vida. El incienso del ardor atraerá el espíritu. Las maravillas tradicionalmente amarillas y de oro son utilizadas. El olor mundano atrae el espíritu. Las maravillas no estuvieron en la temporada, así que escogí rosas. Los esqueletos pequeños llamaron "calacas" está en el altar. Los esqueletos permiten a personas para tener una representación de su adoró uno en tierra. Por último velas son encendidas. Púrpura representa dolor. Rosa representa celebración y blanco representa esperanza. Ahora el altar es completo y usted puede disfrutar de una visita con su mucho partido. |

Do you have the English original so we can have a little more idea of what you mean? Sentences don't always seem very clear to me...

Welcome to the forums!
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there are several errors in this presentation. You said it doesn't have to be perfect, but without a number of corrections, it wouldn't be understood by someone who only speaks Spanish. In fact, it's difficult to know what underlying English was used in some instances. Please give us both the English and Spanish versions of the presentation, and then we'll see what we can do. |
