Hi,
I seem to have a technical problem with this lesson. My progress has not been increasing anymore after 94.7% no matter how often i take quizzes including this lesson. Please help.
Thanks,
Deborah
Hello, in another context, I have come across the expression:
No le di la mano hasta que no supe su nombre.
Would it also be correct, and have the same meaning, to omit the second "no" ?
And, in the 3rd example on this page, could one also say:
No vas a salir de casa hasta que no recojas tu habitación.
?
thanks!
I think I read in one of the lessons that decir was used to describe briefer statements, while contar was used when statements were more extensive or detailed. Would it also be correct to say "Me contó que solo era cuestión de tiempo..."?
In the test you say the situation is hypothetical but the answer is in the future tense. Shouldn't it be in the subjunctive?
Hi,
Kwizbot Desde allí arriba, podíamos ver toda Barcelona.
You could also say: De ahí arriba, podíamos ver todo Barcelona
My question:
Can you use both “todo” and “toda” here, and if so, why?
Also could you say “ver todo a Barcelona”?
Thank you, Nicole
would this sentence be more suitable to be translated to i almost did not reach on time for my appointment, rather than i almost missed my appointment?
Casi no llego a mi cita a tiempo. No he escuchado el despertador esta mañana.I almost missed my appointment. I didn't hear the alarm this morning.
This is in the lesson plan. But according to a chart in a textbook I have, if the verb in the main clause is in the present (parece), then the dependent clause would be imperfect subjunctive or present perfect subjunctive. So the correct Spanish for what is written in English above would be "Parece como si hayas tenido una pelea con alguien." And the correct English translation for the Spanish sentence in the lesson would be, "It looks as if you had had a fight with someone," which is not a normal expression. The Spanish should be "Parecia como si hubieras tenido ..." Please advise if I am incorrect and why. Thanks so much.
