Glad all good between us. Good communication is not always easy virtually! Blessings :-)

Arguing is also not my way, and for that reason I do not typically make a point of entering critical comments of suggestions of other answerers in instances when I myself have offered a translation. I did so in this case for a combination of two reasons: 1.) I was fairly sure that it would be impossible to create an acceptable sentence with your suggestion; and 2.) despite this problem, your suggestion had garnered 4 "agrees."

In short, "context" is important. Answerers (as well as Askers and third parties) would do well to keep this in mind.

So, all the best! :)

I have no argument with you. It is not my way. Apologies if it came over that way on a busy day. My comment was based on the asker’s own suggestion. I just confirmed it sounded ok to me. I would personally use “Furthermore” instead of “Also”, but I understood the query to be mainly about the latter part of the sentence. After you commented I asked my also UK native husband (a teacher) for his reaction to both (your and asker’s) constructions in case I was carrying Spanish in my head. He immediately opted for the asker’s version. As I said he doesn’t always agree with me. In fact he often disagrees so I was not looking for a ‘biassed’ opinion. However he does not speak Spanish and was just asked to react to the sound of the English. As regards translating the rest of the sentence, without more context (i.e. 2-3 extra sentences) I am not sure I would change the sentence as much as you did, purely because I don’t know whether your full sentence fits as totally accurate in the wider context (though it sounds good to me in general terms). I assumed the asker phrased the original suggestion that way for a reason. I am more than happy to bow to your version if it suits the asker better
