You see, Carmen - in English, we figure why have lotsa words when just one will do. One word can convey the meanings of many different things.
(P.S. The more Spanish I learn, the more I appreciate the beauty of the language, which includes the ability to express nuance and the amazingly wonderful number of synonyms and different ways to say the same thing!)

Así que no opino que los guiris (jaja) seais patéticos! A lo mejor vosotros allí en América teneis muchas palabras para decir 'bate de béisbol' según el tamaño, el color...yo que sé! Me pasa exactamente lo mismo que lo que pone en tu postdata rosa con el inglés! By the way, EDIBLE?? thanks for the passing remark but if I'd had to make a guess I would have said 'eatable' jajajaaaaaa Last edited by CarmenCarmona; February 16, 2010 at 09:33 AM. |

And you would have guessed incorrectly. Edible from Latin edo, edi, to eat

And is there a word with an Anglo-Saxon root for that?
