and of course, it helps to spell the words right in English before looking them up ...

At least this one wasn't hard to figure out. A first-year student writes:

"Mi familia y yo pasamos dos débiles en Puerto Rico."

"two weeks", "two weaks" - it's amazing what a difference one vowel makes!

    My favorite from recent years, produced by three students in separate classes on the same day... When asked to describe themselves as an animal, they chose, "Soy como un gato, porque soy bastante."

    You guessed it... They meant to say "... because I'm quiet"...
