Hi sheldon, which process?

Besides, this is not a forum to do free translations but to help on difficult terms or expressions, or to correct minor mistakes when you already did your try. I refuse to do this kind of things and ask the colleagues to do the same.

Walter, I understand your concerns but we have addressed this issue several times in the past. If you don't want to help someone that is your privilege; however, there are those here who like to do these minor translations out of kindness or in order to practice.

I seriously doubt that the poster would want to pay a professional to translate a short love note. It only takes a few minutes of our time to help someone who does not speak or write Spanish and sometimes these small translations generate interesting and informative discussions amongst the professionals.

Which person? The poster or the author of the note?

Of course it is not slang but how is a person who does not speak Spanish going to know that and if the poster knew Spanish he/she wouldn't need a translator.

True, the person who wrote the note doesn't write very well but, again, we get a lot of poorly written English and Spanish but that's not the issue. The poster asked us to translate it and Scott did. Good for him. He did somebody a favor and got nothing in return but the satisfaction of helping someone.

Walter, why not just ignore these posts if they bother you?
