En el anuncio de una sastrería se leía: " ‘Se alteran' pantalones".¿Cómo?¿Pantalones enojados? Sin duda el anuncio quería decir que se arreglaban pantalones. Aunque el adjetivo alterado significa también cambio —"Lo encontré muy alterado; seguramente le habrían dado una mala noticia"—, en este caso de la sastrería el término más preciso es arreglar. Cuando vives en los Estados Unidos, hablar español correctamente se vuelve una "Misión casi imposible". Cada día usamos más traducciones erróneas para comunicarnos; como es el caso, por ejemplo, del uso de "carpeta", del inglés carpet, para referirnos a la alfombra, o "parquear", del inglés parking, cuando lo que realmente queremos decir es estacionar. En Hablando bien se entiende la gente 2 la Academia Norteamericana de la Lengua Española reanuda la divertida aventura que inició en el 2009. En esta continuación del exitoso Hablando bien se entiende la gente, encontrarás los términos correctos para cientos de palabras así como las respuestas a algunas de las preguntas que nos hacemos más frecuentemente sobre el uso del idioma. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Speaking Spanish correctly when living in the United States can become a "Mission almost Impossible." Every day, more and more incorrect translations are used in our routine communications. Such is the case, for example of using the term "carpeta" (from the English word "carpet") to refer to "alfombra," or the use of "parquear" (from the English word "parking"), when what we really should be using is "estacionar."In Hablando bien se entiende la gente 2, the North American Academy of the Spanish Language resumes the humorous and compelling adventure that began in 2009. In this sequel to the successful Hablando bien se entiende la gente, you will find the correct terms for hundreds of words—as well as the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions regarding the use of the language.
