suegonzalez (asker) Sep 15, 2009:
"sus" refers to el concurso. It is about a contest/competition held every year. I think I might use edition.
Carol Gullidge Sep 15, 2009:
I guess that "sus" refers to el concurso, but agree that some context is needed for us to give an informed answer
Yvette Neisser Moreno Sep 15, 2009:
More context please? What type of concurso are we talking about? What/whom does "sus" refer to? Please provide preceding and/or following text if possible.

1000 people have taken part in the competition the four times it has been held

or "... on the four occasions it has been held". If it is an annual competition you can put:

"... in the four years that it has been held".

I assume the figure 1000 refers to the total number of participants over all the times the competition has been held.
Peer comment(s):

agree Carol Gullidge : yes, I'd use "years" or "occasions" - either sounds far more natural in EN (afraid I rather suspect that "edition" in this context is based on a translation from either ES or FR) Never heard of the 4th edition of the Olympic Games!
