I want to know how you say:
They used to bathe
As in Banar in the imperfect tense
If anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated :)
Thanks!

This was a phrase I found in a book, and I'm not a fluent Spanish speaker, so I was wondering what it meant. Thank you in advance.

"j'attendais, t'attendais. nous attendons? esta correcto? hmh, zut! sans rien dire, rien de rien..."

and I didn't really get to know what it really meant.

so how meaningless is it? grammar error meaningless or I-have-three-testicles meaningless?

seventeen years, during my summer vacation it was the greatest time in my life where I went to a club dance with my friends and inited the maid who had made me look very beautiful that night.Then we went at the bar to get a drink along with dacing together in the centre of the floor. At first I was nervous but not very fearful to stop dancing, just nervous for awhile when we were crowed around. Yet we had lots of fun,entertaiment and excitement.Then unexpectedly we saw the maid singing on stage capturinf everyone's attention,having the surpport of tem backing he up when she sang,that was miraculous.And so we join her on the stage..dancing around..while she sings to the crowd.Then surprisely a guy came join us on stage..it was a guy that I was inlove with from England,and he had always been crazy inlove with me...and so he suprized me with lots and lots of flowers.Those were the days..that I can't forget.

Five years old, I fell on a very sharp tool and hurt my knee,I was rushed to the hospital immediately.This was the most painful accident that had happened to me.
At six years old,I went to live with my dad,away from my family in the States for about 1/2 years.
Ten years old,I was developing into a teenage adult.I made my first communion.It was very stimulating with my dad taking photos of me.
At thirteen to fourteen years,I became very popular in my community and in my school.I was admired by the principal,teachers and schoolmates.In primary school,there was an activity to dress as your favourite fairy tale. It was the most electrifying and thrilling moment of my life.I chose to dress as Cinderalla.My dad had brought me a speacial dress which looked like a wedding dress,with lots of sparkling and gleamin studs with tiny diamond stones.I also had a pair of
shoes that looked like a glass shoe.On that day I wa called "Princess" or "Cinderalla".

Help me translate this paragraph from english to spanish..plez

I was born on August 28. That very particular day meant alot to my dad and me.He saved my life as a new born baby in the ambulance vehicle as his first daughter.I nearly died because my mother almost gave birth to me on the ambulance.As the door opened my mother could not hold on again and gave birth to me.Out I came unforeseen,Dad caught me on the floor of the ambulance. The doctor were in high spirits with my parents,and this was how my life first begun for the duration of the future.
Nine months later,I had my first two baby teeth at the bottom of my lower jaw.By the i was crawling at that point in time. I was energetic in moving about on my own and saying babyish words. At three to four years old I was attending pre-school.When attending school I would be crying and screaming for my mother.I would be at school not saying a word to anyone else, unless I saw my mother.

'Key' becomes 'keys' while 'baby' becomes 'babies' when pluralised. The deciding factor is whether the letter before 'y' is a vowel or not. However, what is the rationale for this? How do you pronouce words like 'sacs' so that it doesn't sound like 'sex'? How do you pronouce 'asked' when it ends with /a:skt/. Find it hard to pronounce the [k] followed by the [t]. In fact, i find many words hard to pronounce since i am not a native speaker though i may be able to transcribe the words correctly. Find it hard to twist n turn my tongue when i read fast. Tks

In the TV program "The Simpsons", Homer Simpson is leading a crowd protesting the safety problem of the power plant and one of the power plant staff told the boss Homer Simpson used to work in the plant but was fired. Then the boss said: Get this Simpson character up here right now!"

What's the meaning of "this Simpson character"? Does it means "this Simpson is now being famous" ? Could you provide a couple of examples for this usage?

Thanks a lot!
