Hi Juliana, I liked your comic, it was funny to see how english speakers would interpret our slang. About the Colombian character, I think that she made the story kind of funny and different because that's how we are, the fact that a foreign is been introduced on the story makes things happen on a different way, we Colombians are sometimes lazy or even the opposite, we have a wide variety of regions and this make us have different customs and habits. Imagine this scene happening in real life, the posibilities are infinite, Sandy could have meet a paisa, costeño, caleño or rolo and the plots and endings would be diverse and individual. Well but in general yout comic strip is good I used the same "old wisdom and walking stick man" for my comic as Mr Crane, jejeje...
Yes, Daniel. Colombia diverse and there are different expressions that can´t even be translated to English. It is funny when they are translated to English.
I LOVED your comic! It made me laugh since the first scene. You did a great job!
I think that you chose one of the best aspects to talk about cultural differences. Expressions change from language to language, and every language has its own expressions that are unique and hard to understand to people from other cultures. We, Colombians, have a lot of expressions that have hardly an equivalent in English. And even if they have it, they don't have the same "power", it is to say, the same impact on the person who say them and on the person who listen to them. You can tell that reading and watching the reactions of the characters on your comic. At first, they didn't understand the sense of what your character said, but then, after knowing the real meaning, they accepted it and even liked it. That's a way of negotiation, I think.
You are very creative with these things.Your comic was hilarious and I really enjoyed it. From the beginning until the end, the Colombian culturel, it's represented in your character in each expression that she said. We have uniques expressions around the country and even for us many are unknowing. When we go to another country or when we are with people from different nationalities our expressions show up, and we don't know how to explain them and doesn't have the same meaning. We have different things that represents our culturel like our personality, how we speak, customes, food etc, and you did it with the expressions , you character showed our culture.
I really like your comic. It has your touch, which I like.
I thinks the comic is very skilled and your character seems to portray a very colombian kind of girl that uses typical expressions and it's chilled as well. :)
Hey beautiful! You did a great job bringing everything together. The tone you gave to the story was really nice and it was hilarious to see how your Tommy was a Jinit impersonator XD. I enjoyed so much how your character adds to story those funny moments in communication when you share the meaning of an expression and share culture. I guess in contrast to other cultures we Colombians have the tendency to make expressions constantly and you put it so nice. Little details like the kindness of your character and the way she responds to the situations also was a great example. It was a great reflection on how we use language and how ambiguous can be. Great job beautiful!
I think your comic does represent in a very clear way how Colombians act in different situations. It is very explicit in the expressions you used as "I just breakfasted that!" and "you were a camel" to refer to situations in which one just realized something or how difficult something was. It's very funny the way you represented (Ji..) Tommy and how you explained those expressions. I think you did a great job.
I can't give you corrections because it was well done ^u^. You just mispelled "CRANE" and I'm still wondering if the word "GOT" is appropriated enough in this context.
