Hola Inma,
I'd like some help with the following. Since the present and indefinido "we" form of -ar verbs are spelled the same, I would like to check something. The related lessons are all about the indefinido, but there is a strong implication that some of the events would still be on-going, such as cultivating crops etc, raising livestock and producing electricity. Do we assume that these are no longer being carried out, or does this narrative style of events over a fixed period of time allow us to use the indefinido throughout, even if some of the events have been started and are still ongoing?
Saludos
John
Hi,
I was wondering why this sentence uses the indicativo in the si-clause:
"me dijo que si la regaba y crecía como una planta, tendría un perro"
Isn't the mom seeing this condition as something not at all likely to happen? Does not the use of the conditional in the main clause also indicate that it is less likely and therefore require the subjunctivo?
Thanks!
Deborah
"... no hay demasiada gente que las canten" > Should it be "... que las cante" if 'gente' is a singular noun?
I have noticed that all of the verbs that have a stem change in the future (querer -> querr- and tener -> tendr-) have the same stem in the future and the conditional tenses. Is this a general rule, or are there exceptions.
the sentence, i paste it on the wall
here , is , the wall the indirect obj. pronoun?
I could substitute “which person” here. What clue should I be looking for to tell me I don’t need the accent?
Let me know how your experience is!
¡Ya me contarás cómo está tu experiencia!
lit: "you'll already tell me how your experience is!", you = túWhy do we say it in a way that we already know how the experience is when we are asking someone to let us know?
Hi! I had a similar issue to Nicole taking a test today.
The question was:
¿A qué ________?What do you do?
I answered te dedicas and se dedica. It marked me incorrect for not choosing trabajas as well. But I thought it was "en que trabajas", not "a que". Is this an error w/ the quiz or am I not understanding something?
Thank you!
I was just marked wrong when I answered a test question with 'hemos sido'. I was told that the correct answer was 'hemos sidos.' There is no sidos in the conjugation that I can find. What is this?
