I'm having a tough time knowing when to use the simple past and when to use the imperfect. Could someone walk me through the sentence below and help me understand why we use the different tenses?
Nos alojamos en una casa rural donde no teníamos conexión a internet, pero no era el fin del mundo porque nuestra meta era desconectar y olvidar el estrés.Is this common usage in both spoken and written Spanish? Is it more common in Spain than in Latin America? (i.e. Will there be raised eyebrows if I use it in Mexico, like there often are when I use "cover?") Thanks!
Hola Inma,
I really enjoyed this 'reader'. I'm a big Rosalía fan!
I'm just curious about the 'artistas plásticos' mentioned in this article. Is this simply describing artists that create art from plastic?
Gracias :)
Hi,
Prior to this lesson I was reading about the subjuntive case of verbs. It seems that in the sentence above, the subjunctive case has been used. It does not appear to satisfy the WEIRDO requirements.
Can you please tell me why 'ella se visite' has been used and not 'ella se visita'?
Thanks.
Colin
I know 'para' usually goes in front of verbs in the infinitive form. When does 'por' go in front of verbs in the infinitive form?
What are verbs “like gustar”?Wouldn’t that include other verbs expressing feelings about something, like “fascinated”?So “a mi tambien” would be right?
“Como”can be written with and without accent, it depends on whether it has a interrogative or comparative function.
