@Lou Ann: "Me das envidia" is better than "estoy celosa". "Estar celoso(a)" is more commonly used for love affaires.

And "supe eso" in this case should be rather "(ya) sabía eso" or "ya lo sabía".


And there goes one more vote for Pierce Brosnan.

Well, I can understand your commentary about that, but I've doubts anyhow, that I hope you can clearing me or at least, you can give me more ideas about your suggestion.

Now.

The phrase suggests is missunderstand many times.

Why?


I've understood that the phrase suggest in used when someone is saying something in singular and doesn't plural.

Therefore when I need to say something in plural, I most use the phrase suggestions.


Then I've not as clear or understood your commentary, I'd like that if you are lovable then explain me, so I can correct my mistake and, I don't take in bad way or I have missunderstand that phrase, already that I use seldom that phrase.


By that way, I told you, that your commentary was very weir to me, or the worse to me is that I can't understand very well the completion of the your correction.

Thank you anyhow.

He means that if you want to write "sugerencia", you should use "suggestion", and if you want to say "sugerir", use "suggest"

Crotalito,"lovable" es una traducción muy literal de "amable". Sería mejor traducirlo "kind".
