    Hi Mattyk!
    I really tried to help you, but I can't understand some of your ideas. Why don't you post the English version of what you want to say. I'm sure it's gonna be much easier for any of us.

    Regards,

    Hello gentlemen and ladies. My name is Matt Karpinski Today I am going to present to you my product. Toilet paper has been around since the dawn of time, so what makes mine so special? Because my toilet paper is so smooth and silky soft that it is just like touching a baby's bottom. In fact, it is even better than a baby's bottom. It is like touching God. It is just that nice. But why should you trust me? Because I am a very trustworthy person. That and I ran for president once. I think I love myself for making it I love myself and my company, Karp Toiletries, for making something so perfect. I would give my life for this company because I love it so much. I have loved this company ever since it started. That will never change. Even when I get married, that will never change. And it is all because they have made for me this beautiful toilet paper. This toilet paper that is very easy to use. All you do is pull and rip. It is just that simple. You may do whatever you please with after that. My company also offers different kinds of toilet paper. We offer toilet paper for occasions like camping, birthdays, zero-gravity, and even water-proof! The sky is the limit with Karp Toiletries.

    So basically my speech is a lot of inside jokes I have with my friends. Oh, and if it helps at all I'm supposed to have sentences from the present, preterite, imperfect, future, and conditonal indicitive. I think I have a few examples in there.

    Buenas tardes (o buenos días - is more formal than Hola) damas y caballeros. Mi nombre es Matt Karpinski. Hoy estoy acá para presentarles mi producto. El papel higiénico (así se llama en Argentina) ha estado entre nosotros desde el principio de los tiempos, de modo que ustedes se preguntarán qué hace al mío tan especial? Mi papel higiénico es tan suave y sedoso como la colita de un bebé. En realidad, es aún mejor. Es como la piel de Dios, así de agradable. Y por qué ustedes deberían confiar en mi? Porque soy una persona honesta y porque me postulé como presidente en una ocasión. Creo que me siento muy orgulloso por ello y de mi companía, Karp Toiletries, por haber hecho algo tan perfecto. Daría mi vida por esta companía. La he amado desde sus comienzos. Y eso nunca cambiará. Incluso cuando me case, nada cambiará. Y todo porque han fabricado este hermoso papel higiénico. Un papel higiénico que es muy fácil de usar. Todo lo que tiene que hacer es tirar y cortar. Así de simple. Usted podrá hacer con él lo que le plazca luego. Mi companía ofrece además diferentes tipos de papel higiénico. Ofrecemos papeles higiénicos con diversos motivos, por ejemplo para ir de camping, para cumpleaños, gravedad cero, incluso resistentes al agua!. El cielo es el límite para Karp Toileteries.

    This is very funny Matt! Hope it helps with your class!!!

    Thank you very much. Although, I probably have to make it longer, but whatever. Hopefully my teacher won't consider getting help as cheating. But thanks again.

    I helped you Matt because you really tried. You didn't post the english version and said "please do it for me"... Hope your teacher understands!

    Good luck!

    I think this is the way to go. We get a lot of requests for doing the work or homework for people. not serious if you ask me, and sometimes rude, in my opinion, when the person doesn't even try himself but simply puts the lot into a babel-fish translator and that's that.

    Apart from "cheating" this person will never learn the language.
