Hi,
My question: Why the "ser" verb is used in this sentence instead of "estar" Nuestras vidas pueden ser muy ocupadas con la pareja?
As I learned, we have to use estar in the sentences like these: Estoy ocupado, estás muy feliz, etc. I am confused a bit.
If I'm correct, it appears from the quiz that "aquel" and the equivalent "todo aquel que" forms have identical meanings. Would it be worth adding a note in the lesson to clarify that "todo aquel que" is simply another alternative?
I was wondering if there was a reply to his question below:
"didn't need to (infinitive) & needn't have (past participle) are used to express the lack of necessity in the past, ..."
FYI: this sentence in English is incorrect.
I bought her some books about Mexico in case they were useful for his trip to Acapulco.
"in case they would be useful"
Hola,
Where there is a double vowel, such as leer, is the accent always placed on the second of the two vowels, ie leérmelo, etc?
Gracias,
In this exercise, the adjective "gran" has been placed BEFORE the noun "siesta". To me, that suggests that the nap was "great", "wonderful", "marvelous", etc. as opposed to big, (i.e., long) in which case, I think that the adjective "grande" would be used and placed BEHIND the noun "siesta". However, in the English translation, I think I remember the word "big" being used (I'm not absolutely positive about this). Would you care to comment on this issue?
No me gustan los tatuajes y por eso no tengo ________.
Shouldn't it be "ningunos" because tatuajes is masculine and plural?
Shouldn't an valid answer option include "Laura es "?
There is nothing in the hint to suggest that that is only a hint.
Wouldn't we always use "el azúcar" for phonetic reasons?
Thanks!
Marcos
