rocktobermom:

Please check you word, I don't know what you meant to say or is it the spelling?  I just don't want the others to be confused, you can tell me or you can change your word.

Thanks

It means, "white girl" ... that's what they call me at work.  We have a lot of spanish speaking people at work and I eat lunch with them most days, they are all latino .....  They told me they mean it affectionately, they call one of our guys, "Ojitos"  ....  because of his big eyes.  Might sound derogatory but we all eat together and take turns buying lunch, we don't think they are making fun of us and they assured us they aren't ... LOL!

how about this one:

cabeza

I work in a clinic with a lot of Latino clients.  all of our secretaries are bilingual and translate for me.  I am trying to pick up some Spanish and refresh the Spanish I knew from high school and college.  Some times, the patient and I know more medical Spanish than the secretary because we all know how much medicalese you learn being a patient.  donna

Rock, I love your new picture, you are a beautiful "Guera"

Donna: Entender

You are using three different verbs of the same word:

Entender, Is fine I just wanted to correct the spelling

Welcome aboard i hope you learned some more spanish
