    Default help!! please!!

    Hello,
    I am new to this site, as of just mere minutes ago. I have a very close friend that speaks english as a second language, and I speak absolutely no spanish (well, other than what i may pick up watching Dora the Explorer with my kids, hehe). It's become almost a game with us for him to throw spanish phrases at me that he knows will be difficult to translate; this time, he's done it - i can't even get close with any help. I'm hoping someone that reads this can please help me - I refuse to give up and 'lose' this game of ours. Thank you in advance for any part of this phrase you can translate for me!!!

    Default It is not a Spanish sentence...

    Hello! I'm Spanish and I think that your friend has been pulling your leg. Your sentence could be: Las lágrimas que no corren. La sangre corre por mis venas como las lágrimas desde mis ojos (The tears that don´t run. Blood runs through my veins as tears from my eyes). As you can see, I've had to change almost every word for it to sound a bit Spanish. What I can't understand is the rest of your sentence: it's similar to Latin, not Spanish, and the only words that seem Spanish are "Elia" and "Fina", which are Spanish names for women.
    Have a nice day!

    Yep, I agree, tell your friend to write it in a piece of paper and then copy it here. That will make our job easier!
