Chance favors only favor people with prepared minds, perhaps minds is plural in Spanish an singular in English and this is reasoning? Can anyone confirm this reasoning or I am completely confuse?
Edited: Gooling I found people with heads are smarter, so here they use the plural. So why mind and not minds.
"Chance favors those with a prepared mind" is grammatically correct and sounds just fine, it's just not as pithy as the original. You could also say "Chance favors prepared minds".
Sometimes you use few with a countable name. Some is for not countable. A few friends means that you know perfectly how many friends you have, if you have some friends the number of friends you have is subject to a great uncertainty from 1 to infinity. So some few is saying you have few but are uncertain or don't want to say how many, but that is not very rational. Why this reasoning? Because it can help you to avoid repeating the same error (or unidiomatic expression). The simple fact of analyzing any mistake it a way of becoming vaccinated against it.
In Spanish you should also say "unas pocas palabras" (perhaps jdiez is an Spanish name). The adjective of Google perhaps should be in lowercase. Remember perhaps should be recall. As I almost never speak English I (don't have the opportunity or the like of it) I find it very difficult I will ever grok English, but that is my ever unsatisfied greater aspiration (aside from getting a bigger salary and other pleasures for a young male man).
