Penpal connection (beta test)

Tomisimo now has a penpal database! It is a system where you create your penpal profile and you can browse the profiles of others. When you find someone that looks like a good match, you can contact them and practice Spanish or English, either writing or speaking.

This is a beta release. If you find anything that doesn't work as expected or have an idea for improving it, please post below.

Test out the Penpal Connection here.

As according of the I remember about this pepal already existed before in the website right only that you modified the feature.

I'm not very sure if you can do it in the control panel of your user ID.

Yes, there is a search function at the top of the page to search for users. But the penpal database is to help people find other individuals to chat with and practice Spanish or English.

I see some of you filled out your Penpal Profile. Now, I'd like to know if you have any suggestions for making it better.

Lee Ying, Irmamar lo puso bien.
complementar es dar complemento a algo
cumplimentar es rellenar algo con datos
Por lo tanto aquí seria "cumplimentar" porque se ha rellenado el perfil de penpal.

Yes, that's "cumplimentar" (you can see it in the RAE):

2. tr. rellenar (‖ cubrir con los datos necesarios).

Lo sé porque estoy harta de cumplimentar solicitudes...

I'm not sure about your answer because you have said before the word Cumplimentar and I don't believe very correct the word that you have written, because that word is bad written.

If you are sure of your word then you forgive me.

This thread has been divided and has been moved here:

Anyway, I copied the definition of the RAE to the word "cumplimentar" . You can see it:
