It's all in Spanish! Can you translate?? :-)
Yeah. I second that.
The only Spanish we know is Ayyy Poncho! Ayyy Cisco!
So here it is.
I've been doing everything I can to avoid this problem on this little blog, but I always knew I was merely postponing the inevitable.
I've had requests from non-English speakers that I post in Spanish, and have contemplated a bilingual blog for a while now. Although I'd love to do it, I have absolutely no time at this point...but it's most certainly a future goal.
I translated a Cortázar bit a while back--being forced to use Babblefish is no fun. But non-English speakers have to do it quite frequently, so why not non-Spanish speakers?
I know this isn't a fair situation. I would post more translation work here, but translations are copyrighted...and I don't want to step on any toes.
Not sure when I'll finally get the internet at home, but I am definitely open to translating possibly more interesting bits to post. Cold comfort, I know. I need to think about all this some more.
Thank you so much for continuing to read this site and sharing your thoughts!
