    Smile Spanish rhyme

    I am working on a little ditty to say to my Spanish friends and would like to know if it sounds OK. It goes like this:

    "Mira para acá! y para allí y para allá." It is supposed to mean 'Looky here! and over there and over there."

    ( I've noticed that when the first part is spoken, it sounds like "mira pa cá". )

    I don't understand exactly what you want but if you're finding a way to say so, you can also say

    ¡¡¡Mira pa' cá, mira pa' llí, mira pa' llá!!!

    Realmente, el destino del mundo depende, en primer lugar, de los estadistas y, en segundo lugar, de los intérpretes.

    Hi, I would say " Mira pa' ca! Mira pa' ya! Y pa' ya!"

    I know it looks funny but if you say it with "style" or a"rhythm" then it's 'a'ight'!

    Hope that helps!!
