<![CDATA[Comments on: How do you say...?]]> anglicismos, which are words that are "borrowed" directly from English. You know more Spanish than you thought you did!]]> 2007-11-20 18:00:00 <![CDATA[By: ]]> Gracias, donperigo, but you misunderstood me slightly. My "Ai" was more a "Oh!" or "Oh, silly me" or "Ouch" ,than anything else. Just a sound, really. Perhaps I should've used something else to avoid confusion?

Btw, good to know there are others out there dancing as well. I really can't help myself.  ^^

]]> <![CDATA[By: ]]> Oye, ¿cómo se dice "equal" en español?

se dice "Igual"

¿Igual es Igual que en inglés?

I'm interested in the placement of "¿" the upside down question mark [is there a more correct term for it?] in the 1st sentence of the dialogue, being after "Oye". Would it have been just as correct to have it before "Oye"? Also interesting that I read on these boards recently the reason for this upside down question mark being to make it clear in writing that a question is being asked because a lot of questions are indicated by intonation of speech. In this case though, the comó at the start of the sentence makes it clear a question is coming, but I guess they just have a blanket rule to make a simple convention.
