    Need help translating English to Spanish

    I'm in Spanish 2, homeschooling, so I can't really ask the teacher for help o_O .

    I need to translate these sentences, English to Spanish.
    I do not understand.
    I prefer not to listen.
    They prefer not to work.
    Mary doesn't talk to me.
    Jane doesn't talk to her.
    I don't know it.
    Do not talk! (Use Ud.)
    Do not write to me! (Use Ud.)
    Do not enter! (Use tu')
    Don't you have a book? (Use Ud.)

    If anyone can help with those sentences, I would greatly appreciate it! No online translators please.

    entender = to understand (it is an e-ie stem change)
    escuchar = to listen (regular)
    preferir = to prefer (e-ie)
    hablar = to talk (regular)
    saber = to know (tricky in the first person singular yo)
    escribir = to write (regular)

    remember that el, ella and usted/ud are all the same conjugation. I will NOT conjugate these for you as you need to learn how :)

    if you really can't get them then I will help a little more.

    Thanks, I didn't know a couple of those. I got most of them done now. Only ones left are the Ud. ones, not sure how to re-write those.

    Hahanerd, thanks I had just finished it and checked it over with what you said. Cleared up some of the stuff I wasn't sure about, so thanks for that :) .

    No entres, (yo)No lo se' - Those are what I had, that wasn't what you posted.

    There is also a crossword for this, there is blank and the hint for it is "Contrario de ultimo". Which is unlike last, so I'm guessing it is first? The word is 7 letters, according to the spaces in the crossword. For the life of me, I can't figure this one out.

    you made some mistakes

    they prefer not to work is: ellos no prefieren trabajar
    I don't know it: it depends on the context cuz it could be both conocer or saber
    do not talk is: no hable (its a command btw)
    do not talk to me is: no escribe a mi
    do not enter is: no entra

    also real spanish they dont use yo, ellos cuz its basically repeating and makes you sound arrogant

    I am in spanish 5
