Comment on Pinch, Punch, First of the Month by Jan Edwards

Hi Victoria

How are you getting on with NaNoWriMo? I was going to do it this year myself but as November loomed, the month seemed to fill up with lots of stuff that would have made it really difficult. Next year, for me, then!

Good luck . . . nearly there.

Comment on The Full Process of Translation by neftwink

As a reader I am constantly tortured. I can write the story better. It’s too slow, or I detest the antagonist’s sister because she brushes her teeth only once a day – at night, when she should be brushing them before breakfast, and then after every meal, or the story begins wrong, or it ends too soon, or the love affair is completely derailed by the wrong kind of fabric softner.

It’s Bounce fabric softner, people – not Snuggle.

I mean, come on!

Dear Victoria,

Just read your well written article and I must say, I recognize myself sooo much!

I grew up in a bilingual home in Sweden, speaking Swenglish (as you say, out of laziness). I never lived in Britain, but have not really felt out of place there at all.

In Mallorca yes, I was the giri for many years while working in a bank, and I did not (want to) speak Mallorquí, I do not really like the language at all…. And, I live in Spain! Of course In understand some and can say some words, but that is all. Good for you to take the certificate!

Keep on your good stuff and hasta la vista! Ann

Comment on How pushy are you? by Mark Brayshaw

“muy insistente” is a close one.
“avasallar” is another.
“prepotente” is also pretty good.
In context they would all make sense surely.
Anyway, hope this helped and if not, I apologise.
Mark

V is brilliant, fast, clever, personable and completely trustworthy. I completely recommend her. I actually don’t know what I would do without her.
