    Adding to what I said below I suppose 'buscar' a secas is 'look for' when something is lost. 'Buscar en el diccionario' is 'consultar' 'Buscar un coche o una persona' is 'recoger' but in Spanish 'buscar' can also be used for all of them.

    yes..you're right. You look a word up in the dictionary or look up a word. You look for a new job in the newspaper for example. You look for your car if it's lost or maybe collect it or pick it up if it's at the garage being repaired. You meet a friend if you've already decided to meet or call for a friend if you go to his/her house and you are a young person probably a child."let's go and call for Maria" Another one is to pick your son/daughter up at school at the end of the day. So it really depends what you are 'buscando' and whether it's lost or not.

    Hi Kulia Both mean exactly the same and both are interchangeable.Perhaps 'reservation' sounds 'posher' , maybe used more in American but it depends on the individual.I would generally say 'booking' but not because it's any more correct. Gramatically.....a booking/reservation ? as it's singular but any booking/reservation? would be used too.

    They are both gramatically correct. However,in the first sentence we don't know whether it will or won't happen as 'might' means 'possibly' whereas in the second sentence it will definately happen so they are slightly different sentences.

    Hi Frank, The first one is correct because it's the Present Continuous tense hence the 'being' and because there's a converting aspect to it the preposition 'into' is better than 'in' The third one would be correct if it were 'Who can translate what has been said into English'.
