Hi,
Does the section headed "Bear in mind that their regular superlative forms can also be used" mean that there are two ways to say "The youngest of my brothers is called Juan:
El menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.
and
El más menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.
Thanks
Does the expression "Si no queue" functions in the same way as "si es que" Here's an example sentence: ¡Si no que está prediciendo todos mis movimientos! ¡¿Qué planeas, niño?! Could we as well say, without changing the meaning: ¡Si es que está prediciendo todos mis movimientos! ¡¿Qué planeas, niño?!
Hi, I'm new to the site and trying to understand how it works. Is there a specific section of the site for these exercises or do they only appear as suggestions in the notebook section? Thanks!
Hello,
A couple of questions:
1. How to tell when to use an article in cases like this:
Kwizbot Mañana vamos a ir a la Sierra de Atapuerca.
You Mañana vamos a ir a Sierra de Atupuerca.
2. Why “there” does not translate to “allá”
and many people travel there
Kwizbot y muchas personas viajan a este lugar
You y muchas personas viajan allá
In the Superbike translation exercise, you translated "We'll always remember this day" as "Vamos a acordarnos siempre de este día". Why is "Vamos a recordar siempre de este dia" not also correct ?
I don't understand ¿Por dónde vas? because the translation isn't good English. Do you mean 'where are you?' or 'where are you up to?' (in a book) or 'How far up the road have you got?'
Or perhaps 'where are you at?' is modern usage that I've just never heard before.
In the Yucatan in Mexico, I have heard el derecho for straight ahead. It is quite confusing with 'la derecha' for the right. Todo recto is much better!
Hi,
I was wondering if you have a lesson or if you could explain to me the formal and informal uses for Spain and LatAm.
Is ustedes formal for both? I know that the "vosotros: form is not used in LatAm. So what would be all the ways of being formal, i.e. sing and plural? and who does what?
Thank you.
