Hola,
Yo nuevo to this site, and to Espanol (as usted can all see).
I'm very interested in learning about translating english to spanish, particularly when the words are ebonics or colloquialisms. For instance, if "esto" is the Spanish translation for "this" what is the Spanish translation for "Dis".
I have a mock-rap song I'd like to translate into Spanish. Here it is in English. And, if you'd like, you can watch the "music video" here (www.BenLigeri.com/bldvideos.html)..
I will warn now that there may be some inappropriate words in here, nothing horrible by any means, especially as far as rap is concerned, just a few r-rated words is all, but I thought I'd warn.
It's called...
"DA TALK A EVERY HOE"
