Hi, just a small error. Both examples are the same.
Fui a su casa para hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.
Here, we could have used the preposition "a"with the same intention:
Fui a su casa a hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.My test question asked for the El Presente Continuo - i’m new to learning Spanish and skipped the question as I thought I didn’t know how to tackle Continuo - only to find that when I selected “Explain” I was directed to the El Presente Progesivo, which I have studied. So are there the two descriptions for this grammar and should your lesson not say El Presente Progesivo or Continuo (for those, like me, who don’t always think outside the box) ?
For this lesson I’ve got a bunch of rules bouncing around in my head regarding when to use indicative vs subjective without understanding the “why” behind the rules. Can you provide any guidance on why these rules are the way they are to help me remember them?
Hola, mi amiga dijo "este domingo no pudo ser más lindo". ¿Tiene el mismo significado que este domingo no podría haber sido? Me pareció rara la frase. Parece que a ella no le gustó este domingo, pero la verdad que sí. Es de Argentina, así que quizás sea cuestión de dialecto no sé.
I get that sentir goes before a noun and sentirse before an adjective. But in a test the question was "Yo siento que voy a explotar, comí demasiado."
How do we know whether to use sentir or sentirse in a sentence like this?
Qué provocar el subjuntivo en esta frase:
Tendremos que usar cuanto dinero tengamos. Es muy caro.
?
Just a query.. why is it " tenemos que conocer nuestras emociones" (no "a"), but "para poder controlar a estas" (with the personal "a") in the same sentence referring to the same object? Is this inconsistency typical of conversational speech?
I don't understand this question. What about ella hermana _______de novio. What will be the answer?
I am struggling to work out the semantic structure and 'rationale' of this piece: "Ni qué decir tiene que no necesitas, ni flores en el pelo, ni vestido de flamenca,..." - particularly its first four words?
