Q

I wouldn’t say that my Spanish language skills are as good as my French, but I have a strong foundation and with additional experience and training could achieve a level of fluency equivalent to that of a native speaker. This is an area where I would seek additional training.

A

No diría que mi habilidad en español es tan buena como mi francés, pero tengo una base sólida y con más experiencia y capacitación podría alcanzar un nivel de fluidez equivalente al de un hablante nativo. Esta es un área en la que buscaría capacitación adicional.

23
Q

I’ve been complimented on my precise and formal Spanish, which I think fosters respect crucial for effective police-community relations. Of course, this doesn’t account for the occasional slip-up, like the time I accidentally asked for a sandwich with makeup instead of butter!

A

He recibido elogios por mi español preciso y formal, lo que creo que fomenta el respeto crucial para las relaciones efectivas entre la policía y la comunidad. Por supuesto, esto no toma en cuenta los pequeños errores ocasionales, ¡como la vez que accidentalmente pedí un sándwich con maquillaje en lugar de con mantequilla!
