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?
If I had answered, "Me estoy muriendo de sed" instead, would it be viewed as correct?
Hola,
I have just completed a test with the above sentence to be completed with an adverb.
I do not have a problem with the adverb but with this part of the sentence:
... no nos quedan más ...
Can you please explain how the above equals 'we have no more' in English? I wonder why it is quedan and not quedamos.
Many thanks for you help.
Saludos,
Colin
Ya que is said many times throughout and mostly seems to mean because. I have never seen this before, are there other things that ya que can mean?
Mi abuela espera que ________ con ella este domingo. My grandmother hopes that I'll have lunch with her this Sunday.The answer is coma. But “have lunch” is almuerce.
Hola,
Would that work in this case (if we saw ourselves in the current timeframe), and if it did, would it be that you could choose to either follow it with the present or the imperfect subjunctive?
He querido que vinieras conmigo de compras.
He querido que vengas conmigo de compras.
I wanted you to come shopping with me.
Gracias,
I think "the U.S." should be translated as "los EE. UU.", not "EE. UU". I think in Britain, people often call the United States "United States", but in Spanish it would be better to say "los Estados Unidos".
