Is it possible to add this list to my notebook?
I'm finding myself very confused because you are assuming something that I haven't been taught to assume. (I've been taught to assume something else.) I don't want to reprogram my brain! I'm content with *recognizing* (in a passive way) when the vosotros form is being used. But I'd like to continue to use ustedes when it is appropriate in the form of Spanish I've been learning and using. I don't want to learn (in an active way) the vosotros form.
In the example, "You have already slept enough for today," what is the reason for using 'lo' here: "Ustedes ya han dormido lo suficiente por hoy."
Simple spelling mistakes are part of everyday life and are too often being treated as mistakes in grammar. Writing "depidas" instead of "despidas" does not mean that I don't understand the grammar behind the lesson.
Put a coat on, Carlitos! Do YOU think it's August?
¡Ponte un abrigo, Carlitos! Ni que estuviéramos en agosto.
Why “estuviéramos” and not “estuvieras”?
This asked if this was correct. I put no as mar is a masculine noun, but this was marked as incorrect. The dictionary states it is a masculine noun. On the explanation this it states that it can be feminine in a poetic sense. This phrase is not in my opinion poetic but an observation.
Can you please explain this. Thanks
Instead of just adding "Me llamo", I wrote "me llamo Juan" inadvertently giving the answer "Me llamo Juan Juan". This is accidental! Yet Kwiziq marks it incorrect! Almost certainly, this would never occur in a practical situation.
Also when using my tablet, I sometimes miss out a question by accident. Kwiziq should prompt that all the questions have not been answered. This is also accidental! Yet Kwiziq marks it incorrect!
The question was : How would you say "If you did some exercise, you would lose weight faster." ? I understand the principle of using the subjunctive followed by the conditional simple. I don't understand why there are 2 answers.
Si hicieras más ejercicio, perderías peso más rápido.Si hicieses más ejercicio, perderías peso más rápido.Becky
