Hola desde Virginia, USA

Hola! Originalmente soy de Nueva York pero tengo apenas dos meses en Richmond, VA. Naci y me crie en NY pero mi herencia es dominicana.

Encontre esta pagina porque he tenido que traducir unas cuantas paginas para el trabajo (del ingles al espanol) y francamente he tenido problemas con varias expresiones.

Espero que me puedan ayudar, y tambien que yo pueda asistir con sus traducciones.

Gracias!

Thank you! I grew up in Manhattan and spent the last 12 years in Queens. I am really liking Virginia.

Welcome to the forum Cantinflas! What kind of documents do you have to translate at work?

Thanks, sarab!

We are a nonprofit organization...mainly program information, fliers, registration materials...

Just translated a 1-page fact sheet on the organization.

I grew up in Manhattan too!
And spent my last 7 years in Brooklyn.
It's a small world!

:) But I am a southern bell darling! :)
Love country music, southern boy drawls and I'm south of the mason-dixon line!
Plus I can do a mean southern accent! You'd never hear the Brooklyn in me :D

You've heard the saying: "You can take the girl out of the country but you can't take the country out of the girl".

Does it apply in reverse to city girls?:D

Great to read all these wonderful posts, Vicente and Dragona! And, of course, the warmest welcome to you, Cantinflas. How come a Newyorker calls himself "Cantinflas"? (I'm also his fan).

You know Vicente, honestly I don't know. Is there a test?

And for some odd reason I thought Cantinflas (the Newbie, not the actor), was a woman and thought it was weird that "she" had a guys name. Ok, goes to show I'm missing a few cents for the buck!

Bienvenida!

Espero que puedas aprovechar del foro para tus traducciones.

Gracias!
