Yo comidó hamburguesa con cebolla, ketchup y mayonesa para el almuerzo.

Quiero comer unos dulces pero no lo voy a hacer.

Wordle 237 5/6

The score history has all transferred over, too.

#Mastodon niggle:

In the Web client, when there is a "show more" button, it is often difficult to position the mouse pointer well enough. It is already a finger pointing for me over most of the post, so there's no immediate visual clue that I've gotten to the right place to click for expanding the toot.

The highlight shift on the text button is too subtle for my old eyes, I think, so this may be a "would be nice" kind of request.

Esta semana, estoy usando el raspador para limpiar la pintura de las escaleras. Usaré tinte en su lugar.

I am communing with a television, a remote and a sofa this afternoon.

Tenemos nieve ahora con mucho más a venir. La limpiaré más tarde.

Me gusta mucho jugar Wordle pero no puedo ganar cada dia.

Me gusta mucho jugar Wordle pero no puedo ganar todos los días.

¿Cuál es más correcto?

Me encanta sentarme y caminar en la playa. Pero el sol es malo para mi piel. Necesito estar bien vestido y con sombrero.

¿Se dice «sombrero» o «gorra»?

@tagomago

¡Mucas gracias!

Leo español lento y escribo peor.

Learning Spanish

I tried this sentence:

Tengo el picor aprender español, pero estoy siempre en busca de las palabras corectas.

Google took my attempt and said:

I have the itch to learn Spanish, but I am always looking for the right words.

That's what I tried to say,
but then, reversing the translation, Google Translate came back with:

Tengo ganas de aprender español, pero siempre estoy buscando las palabras adecuadas.

Case in point!

I need immersion!

I just gave a talk about Wordle for my local #NatickFOSS user group.

In case you are interested, the talk was based on this set of notes: http://runeman.org/articles/natick-foss/wordle/

The talk itself is available as part of the meeting video.

Well, heck.

I was pulling for you to beat my 0/6.

Our word choices didn't match, either.

I'm guessing your computer and mine don't match based on the different patches of color in the share of results.

@tagomago

Good luck.

And thanks.

@maples

Egad!

I suffered a Wordle fail today!

Best thing ever since
Sliced bread
Is the best thing
I've heard said.
'Cause tearing off
A hunk of loaf
At a party, toff
Makes me feel an oaf.

Thanks for connecting.
I hope my rhymes
You're not rejecting.
I do them many times.

Have fun.
Be creative.
Be safe.
