Everyone makes mistakes and it’s important to know what to say or write to structure an apology.

You should say what you’re apologizing for, admit the mistake you’ve made and explain what happened and the reason for your mistake. Say what you’ve done or what you’re going to do to correct the mistake.  

Apologizing and admitting fault

I’m so sorry I…
I have to apologize for…
I can imagine you must be very… about…
It was my fault/mistake.

Saying what you’re going to do about the mistake

In the future, I’ll ensure / make sure that I…
I’d like to make it up to you by…
Will you let me…to make up for my…mistake?

Dealing with your mistakes

Nunca es tarde si la dicha es buena, es un refrán que indica que la aventura es siempre bien recibida, que nunca es tarde para llevar a cabo algo útil y beneficioso y que cualquier momento es bueno para emprender aquello que haya de reportarnos algún placer o mejora.  

El paso del tiempo no debe ser obstáculo para realizar aquello que deseamos. No hemos de sentirnos viejos/as ni desechar nuestros afanes por considerar que ya no tenemos edad, porque la alternativa, no hacer nada, es la menos deseable de todas. 

NUNCA SERÁ TARDE PARA EMPEZAR EN ESPAÑOL.
Más vale tarde que nunca.

운동도 안 하고, 굶기만 했잖아요. 굶는 건 안 좋아요.

西班牙语表达

A otra cosa mariposa

On the Italian island of Budelli, visitors like to look at a place called Spiaggia Rosa, a beautiful beach where the sand is pink.

But those visitors can only look — they can't touch the sand.

That's because the authorities want to preserve the beach. In the past, people have been seen taking the sand home with them.

Anyone who breaks the rules will be punished, as a Brazilian influencer has found out.

The travel influencer, who has more than 35,000 Instagram followers, took videos of herself walking on the beach and posted them online.

Italian websites said the woman had taken a boat to the beach so she could walk on the sand.

Tourists can visit the island and walk on a path behind the beach, but no one has been allowed on the sand or in the water around it since the 1990s.

Italians weren't happy when the influencer's videos were seen online.

While she had already left the island, the authorities were able to find her in Dubai, where she lives, and they fined her almost $2,000.

About $300 of the fine was for walking on the beach, and the rest was for using a boat that wasn't allowed to travel to the island.

Authorities say there are signs telling people they cannot enter the area.

No one lives on the island, which is just north of the large island of Sardinia.

However, a man whose boat broke down nearby lived on the island for more than 30 years until he was told to leave in 2021.
