Can anyone give me a definitive answer to:
the spanish translation for "coral reef", and the verb for "to dive", especially meaning "to scuba dive". For the verb, what are the conjugations in the preterite tense?
It's sort of an emergency, as I need the words for a presentation tomorrow...
Thanks,
Ben

I had 4 years of high school spanish 20 years ago but I've worked in Hialeah FL for 8 years... That having defined my expertise... to dive... Buscear... Busceo, busceas..etc... Coral reef...sorry. I'm a gringo :D ... There are a few web sites that translate word for you... Look on Yahoo...

'arrecifes de coral' = coral reef
verbo 'bucear' o 'scuba-bucear' (eeek) = to dive, or to scuba dive
scuba buceador = scuba diver
pre-terites (past tenses):
Yo bucee'
Tu buceaste
El/Ella/Usted buceo
Nosotros buceamos
Ellos/Elas/Ustedes bucearon
e.e.a.,

I think that means I would like to go for a dive on a coral reef. Can you take me there?

Héctor,
No eres gringo?
No será más bien "un gato" en vez de "uno gato"...? No sé, digo yo... :D
