Can someone please help me translate this for my English class?
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
He´d chuck as much wood as a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.
Thanks!! My students are going to love this one :)
¿Cuánta madera botaria una marmota si una marmota pudiera botar madera?
Él botaria tanta madera como una marmota podria botar si una marmota pudiera botar madera.
PD: The woodchuck´s complete name in spanish would be Marmota Canadiense (from Canada) or Marmota Monax (Scientific name) and since it´s too long I left out the Canadiense part.
Thank you Lombardest!! Now lets see how my students do. haha
¿Cuánta madera comeria una marmota si una marmota pudiera comer madera?Quote:

Comeria tanta madera como una marmota que pudiera comer madera comeria si una marmota pudiera comer madera.
Es un trabalenguas.
PS: Lombardest, where are you from? You don't seem to be a native Spanish speaker. Marmota is feminine and you used the pronoun "el". No native speaker would do that.
Indeed... "el" part was a mess up, "ella" is the right one, and on second thought I would skip it. Still are you sure chuck means eat? All the definitions I saw had something to do with throwing or getting rid of something --- And yeah, I am... Del mismo país de hecho.
Okay, I went with the cleaned up version. Thanks guys!!
FYI... the kids in class loved it!!
