Baldo en Español by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for February 12, 2014

GRITS SCOTT!I am the first one here. And I should be asleep. Have a good sleep and a great Wednesday LOCOS.

Akenta, I hope you weather your storm in

good morning and happy wednesday locos

Good morning all! Very sunny but very cold day in New England. I’ll take it considering some of the recent alternatives.

A gift from the heart, Baldo. Very nice.

-1 here, johnny!

Buenas Dias.

Good morning everyone.

I’ve learned a fair amount of Spanish from about five years of reading both the English and Spanish Baldos, often with the help of Bing Translator, but today Bing failed me. Can somebody explain:1) why “no metas la pata” got translated as “no goals the leg”?2) and why Bing didn’t translate “decapotable”?Gracias in advance.

And the best part is how Baldo is missing it completely. This one was worth a good chuckle.

Lost power twice last night and once this morning. Fortunately this morning when it happened I was on gocomics reading my queue, so I was able to complete reading them, but not post.

Thanks for all your comments about Penny last night. She does pretty well with dealing with her hearing loss. With all the dogs I have had I have always taught them verbal and hand signal commands. So now with Penny I just use hand signals. One really funny side note. Penny has a lot of trouble walking on our hardwood floors as her feet tend to slide. She figured out how walking backwards made it easier. She has gotten so proficient at it that she can walk backwards at a fast clip and it is funny to watch. I am thinking of recording it and putting it on youtube.

Thanks. I wonder if there is a way to selectively turn on a Spanish spell checker.

Hola LOCOS!Hi PSCHEARER. Long time no see!I find Google Translate is okay, but a Spanish spellcheck my be on your computer. I know you can download dictionaries too.

Looks like I just proved that spellcheck isn’t perfect, as it doesn’t infer spelling that makes sense in a sentence. That should be MAY, not MY.

Hugs back KINDNESSMATTERS. Like JOHNNY says, no matter how you say it, Baldo doesn’t get it at all.

Hi DRY! How was your day?

How long was your power out, CLEO?
