Hmmmnn... I don't speak Spanish very well, and have only a limited
vocabulary (mostly as it relates to a Dishwasher's duties in Restaurants, and
very simple instructions for basic prep), and even I can _almost_ pick out
this recipe well enough to make a _vague_ translation. I would, of course,
need help with some of the words (Amasarlo, masado, and a few others), but
the point is that, the original poster is right. This _seems_ like it would
be a lot easier (for me, anyway) than trying to translate Latin or Italian.
Think of how easy it would be for someone who actually speaks the language..
