en un área de estacionar pavimentada de alquiltrán y lo arrastraran por el trasero Explanation: black top = pavimentada de alquitran/brea drive way = área de estacionar privada (de una casa) que con frecuencia conduce a un garaje -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-02-07 22:00:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- driveway = área en frente del garaje/la cochera driveway = (área de) entrada a la cochera driveway = marquesina (en algunos lugares) Quizás la parte más difícil de esta traducción sea "driveway". En la República Dominicana, le dicen "marquesina" (pero esta palabra no se entiende en todas partes). I hope this helps! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-02-07 22:30:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As for "bottom" it's commonly-used in polite language in conjunction with "drag"; it refers to the "rear-end" or "buttocks" (more vulgarly known as the "butt"). :-) bottom = trasero/nalgas Concrete vs. Black Top Driveway Home Improvement Questions.

Though it's commonly used in Spain (even in diaper commercials that mention "el culito de tu bebé"), its use in this context is simply not appropriate. Many people in Latin America might consider this word vulgar. Besides, it's simply not a good translation of "bottom" (which is about as polite a word as you can say in English). bottom=trasero (for a diverse target audience) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 19 hrs (2009-02-08 16:53:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Excuse me: that's "...I would definitely avoid it." :-) |
