Spanish: ¿Realmente? No me gusta. Pero necesito pantalones y un jersey. (Realmente means in fact. Use Verdad instead.)

English: There's a sale in town now. If you want to, we could go together.
Spanish: Hay una venta en el centro ahora. :good:
(If you want to, we could go together?!?=S) (Break this down into two thoughts - "if you want" and "we can go", then add the word for together (the correct form of junto).)

English: I don't know. Not today. I don't have time. Tomorrow, maybe.
Spanish: No sé. Hoy no. No tengo tiempo. El Quizá mañana.

English: Good, I need a new shirt and black boots.
Spanish: Bueno, me necesito una camisa nueva y () botas negras. (There's no need for an indirect object pronoun. Missing an indefinite article.)

English: You can buy a black hat too. It's in fashion this year.

English: See you tomorrow at eleven o'clock in front of El Corte Ingles.
Spanish: Hasta mañana a las once de la mediodía delante del "el corte ingles." (El mediodía means noon. If you want to say "o'clock," you should use en punto. You should use another word instead of delante. El Corte Inglés is Spanish and should be left untranslated. (Notice the capital letters and the addiotion of the missing accent.) When a proper name begins with El, but the word de precedes it, the two are joined together to make del.)

I think it`s like that: I don`t know. not today, I don`t have time. tomorrow maybe.
spanish: No sé. Hoy no or (hoy?). No tengo tiempo. Quizas(talvez) mañana.
That`s my point of view.*_*
