How do you say this in Spanish...?

Question

"He who is constantly risking failure"

My best guess is...

"Ello quién es siempre arriesgar falta"

I know arriesgar is incorrect, its the infinitive form of "to risk"

what form is the -ing form called anyways?? when you're actually doing it?

Thanks for the help!!! muchos gracias!!! :)

Answer 1

Nobody has gotten it right yet.

"El que constantemente se esta arriesgando a fracasar"

If it looks like I added a few words, it's because I did. Otherwise it doesn't make sense.

And I tought it was "gerundio". The -ing in spanish is -ando & -iendo

arriesg-ANDO
risk-ING

Answer 2

In Spanish the present participle has become a verbal tense, with the infinitive taking over the gerundive role. You can use the present participle in a number of ways, including some resembling English: Estoy hablando.

Your translation is nothing less than atrocious, and I can't tell you in how many ways.

Perhaps the simplest translation might be "el (accent required) siempre arriesga fallar.

Answer 3

He, who is constantly risking failure=

Él, quien constantemente se arriesga a fracasar.

The ing ending is Gerundio.

Answer 4

The correct translation is:

"Aquel que constantemente pone en riesgo el fracaso",

or

"Aquel que constantemente arriesga el incumplimiento"

(it would depend on the context).

Native language

Answer 5

Aquel que constantemente arriesga el incumplimiento

Answer 6

"El, quien esta constantemente arriesgando (el) fracaso"

That's my best guess. You can use it with or without the "el". The -ing form of arriesgar is "arriesgando". In spanish the infinitive always ends in "ando" "iendo".

Answer 7

hmmm, I thought the infinitive ended in either -er, -ar, or -ir. I think the gerund (-ing) ends with -ando or -iendo.

Answer 8

"siempre se esta arriesgando a fallar"
