Title
The bridges ...
Text
Submitted by Alejandra83
Source language: English Translated by handyy

The bridges have collapsed and the roads are empty of passers-by... No visitor has remained, the fountains have run dry.

But it doesn't work in this way.

Dude, are you stupid? Are you maniac or nutty as a fruitcake?

Do blow in, when this light is suffocating the darkness...

My loyal beloved is the black earth...

Title
Los puentes se han derrumbado
Translation
Spanish

Translated by Dewan
Target language: Spanish

Los puentes se han derrumbado y las calles están vacías de transeúntes... No ha quedado ningún visitante, las fuentes están secas.

Pero no funciona de esta manera

¿Eres estúpido, muchacho? ¿Eres maniaco o loco como una cabra?

Sí, pasa por aquí, cuando esta luz esté sofocando la oscuridad...

Mi amada leal es la tierra negra.

Hola Dewan, hay algunas correcciones...

transeúntes
No se ha quedado ---> No ha quedado
..no funciona de esta manera
¡Hijo! ¿eres estúpido? ---> ¿Eres estúpido, tío/muchacho?
...or tan loco como lobo? ---> o loco como una cabra (montesa)?

Sí, pasa por aquí, cuando esta luz esté sofocando la oscuridad

Mi querido leal ---> Mi amada leal

Sorry I didn't realise that I had to do something... I thought that you had corrected my Spanish and had made the changes yourself..
I'll get around to it later this evening..
Hope the weather is as nice where you are.

Hi Lilian,
I think I am correct in my use of quedarse... No te quedas.. Mabye it is a case of South American Spanish being as different from the Penisular Spanish as American English is from English

No, it's not a geographic difference of "quedarse"

In any Spanish we have two uses for this verb:

"Yo me quedo en casa" (I stay home)(quedarse)

"No queda nada" (Nothing remains)(There's nothing left) (quedar)

In this case, the second use is the correct one (no reflexive)

BTW, yes, it's sunny here
