Te gustan las sombras?

[bobjenkins]

Hola, ¿Es la traducción correcta?

Do you like eyeshadow? (maquillaje)

¿O tiene otro significado? No estoy de que sea correcto porque he visto una película en la que un hombre le pidió a otro hombre, ''te gustan las sombras?''. Él se enfadó y empezó gritar

[poli]

Sí es correcto.
¿En que infierno vives tú?

[chileno]

Se le llama sombra de ojos o para ojos (creo)

[irmamar]

Sí, es sombra de ojos.

Just I made a fast search in internet and I could only find this result of the means of the word eyeshadow.

It besides the internet means Sombrear.


That is correct?

That is correct?

I'd use "sombrear" for a drawing. Sombra de ojos means eyeshadow.

Right therefore I must to say, I like your eyeshadow .

It's right.

** is wondering how bored bob must be to be watching these kinds of movies**

Slightly off topic but I was wondering:

In Dutch when someone is looking very tired we say he or she has shadows under his/ her eyes.
('Hij/Zij heeft schaduwen onder zijn/haar ogen').

I think this also exists in English, as well as 'bags' under their eyes.

How can you say this in Spanish?

Ojeras:

¿No has dormido bien esta noche? ¡Tienes unas ojeras...! (cuidado, no orejas )

It's rings under the eyes. Bags under the eyes is similar, but refers to a condition that comes with advanced age.

We say "ojeras", both for age and for another reasons. Or does "rings" have another meaning?

[poli]

Even children can have rings under their eyes. It occurs when there is not
enough sleep.
Bags under the eyes do not get cured by sleep, but a plastic surgeon can help.

Hehe... ¡¡excelente gracias!!

Haha.. yes this is tricky with some Spanish words, they look a lot alike.. You can easily make a strange mistake...

The other day I wanted to write : thank you for helping me with these phrases. I nearly wrote : 'Muchas gracias por ayudarme con estas fresas'...

Ah yes of course.. Thanx !

[irmamar]

Well, it's the same in English for me, above all with pronunciation: hear and here, for instance . This is a problem sometimes because I'm a bit dyslexic and I have to write slowly because if I don't I can say "barbaridades" much worse than fresa for frase

Watch out, you're messing with my name!

[brute]

I am rather concerned about the dark secrets of two of my new friends.

Bob has an eyeshadow fetish. What is your favourite colour Bob?
I think that Laura may have confessed in another thread that she keeps spare human body parts in her fridge. Please tell me that these rumours are untrue!

What do call a black eye in Spanish and Dutch? I know that Germans have blue ones.
