Nicholas Mead points to a particularly amusing bit of English Translation from the toursit office on the island of La Gomera:
IT IS OUR DESIRE THAT TRAVES OF THESE PAGINAS CAN KNOW THE ISLAND THE GOMERA, ITS HISTORY, CULTURE, ARTESANIA, GASTRONOMIA BETTER AND LIKE NO, OUR SUPPLY TURISTICA AND OF COMPLEMENTARY LEISURE
Meanwhile the Guardian comments on the usual Franco celebration nonsense in Madrid this weekend:
Hundreds of right-wing supporters, many making stiff-armed fascist salutes and chanting insults against gays and immigrants, gathered Sunday to mark the 31st anniversary of the death of Spanish dictator Gen. Francisco Franco.
Puerta del Sol mentions an essential new dictionary we Spanishofiles might want to get our hands on.
And finally, you probably have to be Spanish to understand all the humour in this one, but this take on Franco’s death is particularly fine, just before the minute mark, in the announcement for the BBC 🙂
