Scuba Forum / UK Scuba / January 2005Wanted - Spanish Jargon
Does anyone know of a web source for diving terms in Spanish. With English translations. I have pigeon spanish, which extends as far as "Where is my aunt's pigpen?", and "Two beers please", and recently had fun in a Spanish dive centre trying to find out how deep they were diving. So it would be handy to know the spanish for the different bits of dive kit, and the usual stuff divers talk about (immediately before and after the dive - I do not want the terms for fetish sex and drinking, as I can manage that with sign language) Regards, al > Does anyone know of a web source for diving terms in Spanish.

The DM we were with, whose English, although good, was far from perfect, turned to me underwater at one point and said in sign language, "Leave that. Come with me and I'll show you something worth photographing." He signed this in maybe two seconds and I understood him perfectly. ?Hola! ?Que tal amigo mio?
