anyway, here's how I would probably say the sentance you suggested in spanish:

"Mas temprano hoy yo visto muchos nubles pero ahora estas soleando" (mangled I know)

Close, a correct way of saying it would be "Thanks, I wasn't able to find that page doing a simple google search"
ok was funny to read that

Hoy observaba el tiempo en Altea cuando me dí cuenta de que era un día soleado, sin embargo ahora está nublado.

100% native form to say it. Btw that was my phrase. Yours would be: Anteriormente vi muchas nubes pero ahora está soleado. Más temprano wouldn't be used in this phrase.

Now you understand what we're saying. I understand what you said (there in spamish) and you understood what I said even though my version was obviously not as correct or well written as yours.

I did intentionally leave out the but about watching the weather an being in Altea though. I was trying to translate "Even though it was overcast earlier it's cleared up nicely and is sunny now"

Exactly, even though it's technically okay (mas temprano means earlier) it doesn't work the way I used it. You're mistakes in english are very similar to that.

Bro but I wrote it better unless in that phrase with the Google thing. Which is your Spanish level? The levels are basic, A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2, native. In English I am C1 at the moment.

nubles is like saying coluds or coduls instead of clouds (is nubes, without the l) soleando is like if you say "soleing", it has a relationship with suela (sole) rather than with the sun. It's soleado alone.

Oh ok, that's different.

Junter can you say this in English?

"Hoy el dia esta nublado, como siempre, porque el clima de Binghamton es pelotudo y es pura miercoles. El clima de Valencia es mucho mas chevere"

Ok, that's definetly too Argentinian for me.

I know that pelotudo means something related to idiot if you say it to someone, but I really don't know what pelotudo means in a phrase like that. I'll use crap instead, ok?

Pura Miércoles wouldn't be said, it's Miércoles alone. Is like if you say purely Wednesday. Chevere is like good, right?

Here you go: Today was a cloudy day, as always, because the climate of Binghamton is a crap and it's Wednesday. The climate of Valencia is much better.

I don't speak spanish, but knowing Italian makes this sentence almost transparent...

I think just about everybody on the site is now convinced that you're Junter

I don't know who you are, but it's obvious that you're a troll account.

Actually 39 people are my clones, specially those well known c-d users which commented that they prefer Spain.
I can't prove anything but if you are genuinely creating numerous accounts just to fix an online poll on CD, then you are completely insane

Gareth is British. Junter lives in Spain. If Gareth is Junter, that means that he must live in Spain too. A British man living in Spain with the name Gareth, does that sound familiar? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gareth_Bale

We're on to you, Mr. Bale
