i think the first bit means you are a very nice man. i do not know about the second bit as i do not speak spanish! (i think it's spanish)

"Mr Easton is a man of intelligence, sympathy and very geniable. I am embarassed."

I reckon it's something like that. I could be wrong as I don't speak Spanish either.

― jel --, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

wouldn't it mean "I am not embarrassed" (if embrasado does mean embarrassed)?

― Dan I., Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

it looks like it could mean embarrass, or HUG!

― katie, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

yeah Dan I, you are probably right.

― jel --, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Anyway, Queen G to thread, coz he'll be able to translate this for sure!!

That isn't real Spanish! Nor is it Portuguese. Hm.

Mister Easton is a guy who is very smart, sympathic (nice), and congeniable (???). dunno about the last bit. He isn't... embrasado??? Don't be embarassed?

― nathalie, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh shit Jel already said this... sorry. He's right. And the guy who said it as well.

― nathalie, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

"Simpatico" means likable, not sympathetic. "Embrasado'"isn't my dictionary; "embarazada", oft mistaken by foreigners for embarrassed, means pregnant. But I don't think that's what's going on here...

Babelfish will help.

― Daver, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

PROOF that the above sentence is NOT IN ANY WAY real Spanish: Babelfish offers "Mr. Easton is a man very intelligent, simpatico, and geniusable. Not this embrasado." And we all know that Babelfish never lies.

― Archel, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

I like the word 'geniusable' though. Anthony = able to be made a genius out of?

― Archel, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, grammatically it IS Spanish: the verbs are fine, and the sentence order is OK: it's just it contains two strange words...

― MC, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes. But you know, vocab is kind of important to a language.

would the 'embrasado' bit mean something to do with 'kiss'? (As in the French 'embrasser' = to kiss)

― C J, Tuesday, 2 July 2002 00:00 (twenty-two years ago)

nah, it's just a fucking typo - to clairfy, mr easton is a very kind, intelligent and easy-to-get-along with man. He is not pregnant

I don't think the words geniable or congeniable exist. Genial and congenial do, though, and the former is spot on here, I think.
