English term

land deals

English to Spanish Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
Se trata la descripción de una fiesta celebrada en un restaurante (en la que, por cierto, se la describe como una fiesta modélica y perfecta): "... land deals were auctioned like door prices."

Entiendo que "door prices" son los premios que se sortean y en los que participas con el número de tu entrada, pero no consigo entender qué son "land deals".

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Noni Gilbert Riley Jan 28, 2014:
My reaction Although I can't substantiate this at the moment. I understood this to mean "property prices" for "door prices" and "land purchase agreements" for "land deals" - a very select gathering! But I may be way off!

Note from asker:
Muchas gracias, la respuesta está bien, aunque al final resultó ser una metáfora, por eso es tan disparatado.
