Yo: Disculpa, J. ¿Esta parte del dedo (señalando la parte del dedo que no contiene la uña) se llama la yema?
J: Sí es la yema.
Me: Excuse me, J. This part of the finger (indicating pad of finger) is called "la yema"?
J: Yes, it's "la yema".

J: Eh, perdón...¿Sor Juana es del siglo XVII o el XVIII?
Yo: (pensando,"¿Es el siglo uno más o uno menos que el año?") Del XVII.
J: Um, excuse me...Is Sor Juana from the 17th or 18th century?
Me: (thinking, "Is the century one more or one less than the year?") She's from the 17th.

Thanks, James, I'm still learning much about blogger.
