Exchange Spanish/English vocabulary

[nuria2012]

Hello mybabyian,
thank you for your help. I was using open and close the windows.  I had no idea about roll up/roll down the window        and honk the horn, it has rhythm 

A trouble maker' could be translated into English with the word ·trasto"   Eres un trasto...  This term is used very often where I live. Toddler are real trouble makers when they begin to walk.Nobody can deny this fact.

Other useful Spanish sentences that I would like to translate into English are:
Poner los seguros de las puertas del coche: ?? It is put something in order that the baby cannot open the door. My baby opened one day, There is a baby  seguro? that is activated in the interior of the door of cars. But there is another that you can see, it is visible.

No juegues con la comida/Con la comida no se juega     Don´t play with the food (is it common in English language?
No tires las cosas al suelo    Don´t through things on the floor?/ Don´t drop things on the floor.
¿Lo has pasado bien en la guardería hoy?  Had you fun at nursery school today morning?
No escupas la comida.   Don´t  throw away the food?

In Spanish we always use ´Caca´' No toques eso´ The possible translation could be, in order that everybody understands  `Popo? Don´t touch that. You use this expression, when, for example, your LO is taking something that is on the ground. ´ Is there an expression in English used with babies and toddlers, please?


Trágate lo que tienes en la boca.               Could be                      Swalow what you have in your mouth.
Come y calla!                                                                                   Open and shut!
No te salgas de la acera                                                                  could be   don´t go out from the sidewalk?

Now I am going to copy more SPANISH sentences and their translations. I hope they help some people. Sorry if I repeat some of them

Vamos a sentarte en tu cochecito, vale?  Let´ s sit you down in your puschair, shall we?
Nos vamos de paseo            We´re going for a walk.
Abre bien la boca, que aquí viene el avión.  Open wide. Here comes some food.
Mami te va a preparar el biberón. Mummy´s going to get your bottle ready
¡Qué bueno!  Isn´t that nice!    Another English possibility?
Vamos a ponerte el babero. Let´s put your bib on.
Tu comidita está lista   Din dins is ready!!
Quema?  Is it hot?

What phrases do you use when you dress your baby??Iwould be grateful about any sentence, it is not necessary to copy so many sentences....   I love helping other people, and I am learning with your help, thank you

[mybabyian]

poner los seguros is lock the door.  There s also a child safety lock which is what you are talking about I think. 

you can say Don't play with your food.
Did you have fun at nursery school this morning?
Don't spit out your food.
Yucky don't touch that.
I would just say stay on the sidewalk (please) or stay out of the street.  Or, stay close to me please, or wait for me please.

I think everything else looks good.  There is a lot to say about getting dressed. 

Look at this pretty shirt.  Put your head through, now put your right arm in the sleeve, now your left.  Let's button you up (if it has buttons).  Here is a nice clean, dry diaper.  (you can make the diaper talk, move it like a mouth). Hi baby!  will you put me on?  Wonderful!  (you talking again) Let's fasten the right side, now the left.  Time to put on your pants.  Aren't these cute!  Put your left leg in.  now your right.  Over your diaper now.  Let's button the button and zip up the zipper.  Time for your socks and shoes.  Which go on first?  We put our socks on before our shoes!  Here is a sock for your right foot.  Here is one for your left.  Now here is your right shoe, it goes on your right foot.  Now here is your left shoe it goes on your left foot.  Look!  Now you are all dressed!  ARe you ready to go play?

ThAt's a lot I know.  Hopefully it helps.  If you can write it in Spanish it would be very helpful!  Thiank you!

I will write my Spanish text.

It is not necessary you translate this text, but sometimes I will need a translation, please. Only perhaps, this part:Vamos a quitarte la ropita para darte un baño fresquito lleno de espuma y burbujas.
Primero te quitaré la ropita.

[mybabyian]

Hola!  Sorry for not responding earlier.  I have been busy having a baby!  My little princess was born healthy and we have fallen deeply in love with her already.

Here is a translation. It's not exact but I think it is more how we would say what you are trying to say.   

 Vamos a quitarte la ropita para darte un baño fresquito lleno de espuma y burbujas.
Let's take off your clothes so you can take a nice fresh bath with lots of foamy bubbles.

[nuria2012]

Hello mybabyiannnnn! CONGRATULATIONS FOR YOU NEW BABY!! I didn´t know anything about that!!  It has been a surprise. I don´t remember have read it. Don´t worry please! You must be very tired and happy for the new arrival!!!

Thank you for the translation!  Perhaps, when you are better you could say to me the typical sentences that you use when bathing your old son., when you are playing with him in the bathtub. What you say to him. Forget what I have said   You must restttttttttt!!! If you want me to translate something, you or other people, here I am.
A thing, how many children have you got?
 Can you say Go out from the room?? A person can be very good level but without any interaction with people, many doubts can appear

Take care of you and your baby.

@mybabyian congtatulation to your new baby!!

We are going to start with spanish in couple of months so or now I benefit from the english translations.

What phrases do you use when brushing teeth?  Thanks a lot.

[nuria2012]

Hi c4andy20, thanks for  writing your sentences. What sentences do you use when your LO is in the bathtub? The sentences with the sponge, the games with the bubbles,... I know that there are more people who are not native English speakers, and they can help a lot.

Hi lelak, It is grateful to find more people interested in speaking in my native language with their children. Well, I will copy some sentences related to brushing teeth time.

Es hora de cepillarte los dientes. Tenemos que cepillarnos los dientes después de cada comida para tenerlos siempre muy limpitos.
Vamos a poner un poco de pasta de dientes en tu cepillo de dientes.
Ahora nos cepillamos los dientes por este lado, ahora por este lado, ahora arriba, ahora abajo. Todas los rinconcitos de nuestra boquita tienen que estar limpitos.
Vamos ahora a enjuagarnos la boca.
Coge este vaso de agua y coge un poquito sin tragar.
Enjuágate bien toda la boca un par de minutos y tírala al lavamanos después.
Ahora tus dientes están limpitos!!!I hope you understand all the sentences. Any doubt say to me.

Could you say to me what sentences do you use in English, please?

: c4andy20, Thank you for all of your sentences. A question, what languages are your LO speaking? Sure, English and Spanish, more languages??

[c4andy20]

 We are native in Spanish and English but together we are learning French and Chinese. Right now our Chinese is better than our French. Learning to read Spanish is super easy for the kids because it is extremely phonetic compared to English and French. Chinese is much easier to speak than to read (for us any way, because there are just so many characters to learn). Here is a video of one of my daughters reading in Chinese. It's not perfect but not bad considering we are not native speakers.

[nuria2012]

Hi c4andy20!

Your children are very lucky. They will be able to know four languages. Amazing!

The other day was speaking to my hubby about the possibility to teach Nuria Chinese in the future. My husband says to me first the languages that I can speak and then, Chinese would be a good option. On Thursday I downloaded a pair of Chinese files to have a look... One of them was about the first things that one learns when learning a new language. I have no idea how I could teach my LO, if those sentences are not translated, those symbols. I love Chinese writing, it is so different. I have heard that handwriting of this particular language is about concepts, each symbol, a concept, Is it right?? Well, when you can see a word and later a picture, it is obvious, but that video that I downloaded, difficult... I felt frustrated. I think Chinese would be a good option, it is a language that is having more and more power.

You say that your LO cannot do it perfectly, Take your time, she will do it! You must feel very proud of her, I am sure.

Mybabyian, I hope you and your lovely newborn are very good!!

Hi nuria2012! I'm from Ukraine and I really want to teach my kid Spanish. Please write phrases that you use when it's time to take your child to the potty. Please all the phrases that you remember. Poty-time is time to talk.
