"Anímate, no te arrepentirás!"
Siempre siento que es difícil traducir animarse manteniendo el mismo sentido de la expresión. En este caso estaba pensando en "come on, you won't regret it" o algo parecido, pero no me siento 100 % contenta con esa traducción. Alguna idea, alguien?

So go on!
So go on! Is how it would translate into British English. And even more fun would then be, "You won't regret it!".
Ah, I know I won't.
Good luck!
Neil.

Cheer up, you won't regret it..
IT DEPENDS ON THE CONTEXT..where Spanish says animate in varioius circumstances we would say a BUNCVH OF THINGS..
but in the sense of DON't LOSE HOPE..
it's Cheer UP..that is the MOST GENERIC
go for it...would be encouraging someone to for example, win a race

Hi Lisa,
If your context has anything to do with your other question, I think this could be perfect.

Obviously, anything else along these lines would be equally suitable.
