Spanish language Q&A Forum

Which of the options in the lesson plan on "Spanish verb sobrar: different menaings" does this answer fit into:

¿Te sobra algún bolígrafo o los has repartido todos?.

I use a tablet to practice Lawless Spanish while on the treadmill. I am unable to place accent marks with the tablet, usually this is not a problem as those answers go into the nearly correct column. My answer to: Los estudiantes ya _____ las instrucciones, han leido was marked wrong. This is inconsistent and confusing. Please look into this.

Good day,

I would like to know why you also need to use the subject in the sentence when you already conjugate the verb in the proper form? I.e. Nosotros volvemos muy cansados instead of volvemos muy cansados? Thanks a lot and best regards,

hi the Link to the wider lesson on this isnt working. When will it be available?

Im currently working on the idea that (in Spain) spaniards use the present perfect (when English would use the simple past) when there is a sense that the verb happened in the recent past, or otherwise related to the present in some way. e.g  you SAW the film THIS week, we SAW your parents (maybe THIS morning), or they SAW the sunrise (last night).

is this right? 

Hi,

In the translated text above, these terms all get the articles, however, in the test, they all don't.

i.e.:la astronomía, y en las matemáticas. También, trabajaron en la agricultura y el comercio"

in the test, it corrected me, so I'm a bit confused:

Could you please let me know when you can/cannot use the article "le,la,las" etc in front of these: 

The test examples: 

Kwizbot Los aztecas destacaron en astronomía,

You Los aztecas destacan en la astronomía,

You could also say: Los aztecas destacaron en la astronomía, 

Kwizbot También, trabajaron en la agricultura

You También, trabajaron en agricultura

[note: here I dropped the article and it didn't correct me]

Well done! and in mathematics.

Your answer matched mine: y en matemáticas.

Thank you for your help and have a great day!

Hola,

In the following quiz I replied with ‘...solamente hubiéramos llegado...’ and it was marked as incorrect. The required answer was just ‘hubiéramos llegado’. Was I in fact wrong to include ‘solamente’? Is the ‘if only’ implied here? 

Si ________ a tiempo. If only we had come on time.HINT: Conjugate "llegar" in El Pretérito Pluscuamperfecto de SubjuntivoGracias a todos 

Hi, I'm wondering if Inma is speaking in her normal voice/pace in this audio, or if she is enunciating carefully for us learners and the B2 level? I'm asking because I've noticed that I understand her pretty well, but when I watch videos of native speakers on Youtube, often I don't understand anything. Thanks!
