I find even the English can't sound English on American films or TV, like Helen Baxendale on Friends and Davy Jones out of the Monkees. I don't know about Daphne on Frazier, who I like a lot, but no way does she sound Mancunian (from Manchester). Maybe they all need the same vocal coaching as Johnny had?

I'm learning Spanish at the moment. The one thing I'm struggling with is when to use the word Que. Not only does it seem to have several meanings (what, which) but it seems that it can be added to some sentences to change the meaning but not to mean either what or which >> tengo que beber = I have to drink

Que seems to be the main thing that I'm not sure about. When to use it, when to use it for where instead of Cual, can it change the meaning of a sentence in a similar way to when it's used with Tener etc.

Thanks in advance.

Seeing people trusting on-line translators for translating English sentences into other languages makes me quite frustrated.

So, who is the most stupid? The asker who choose a clearly wrong on-line translated answer as the best answer (and sometime over a much better "real" answer) or the person who used an on-line translator in the first place, thinking he/she done a great job (also when the text clearly makes no sense) ?

And also, what should be a fair punishment for these people?

Hi Guys. I want to send a Christmas card to the spanish family I spent some time with during my summer holiday. Want to say: 'Merry Christmas and everything the best for the New Year. See you soon. Lots of love!' Can anyone help me out and translate this or maybe recommend a good website where I can get the translation for free? Many thanks.
