Would my answer (quiénes) be correct if I didn't have the accent? If not, can you explain why not? The correct answer was shown as "que"
Is a good definition of soler "to be in the habit of (doing something)"?
Thank you
When using the de + infinitive construction, does the tense used in the main clause indicate the level of probability? Eg present = possible, future = less possible, conditional = very unlikely/impossible?
When is use of de + infinitive preferable to using the conditional si construction?
I am a bit upset at the fact that I changed my correct answer to an incorrect answer based on a hint given. I just finished taking a quiz and the question was:
Sus padres ________ bastante delgados.
Their parents are quite slim.
(HINT: Their parents have always been slim )
I knew the answer was "son", however I changed it to "tienen" based on the hint given. Imagine my dismay when I got the question wrong after knowing the correct answer and changing it because because of the hint.
Thank you so much for these regional notes. Do you have any sense of whether the use of the European construction is confusing to LA speakers? Or vice versa? Or would the meaning still be easily understood?
Hi,
I was wondering if and how this sentence would change if you were to use "para" and it comes to mind that perhaps if you used "para" then the sentence would have to change to "para trabajar" and not "para trabajo" ?
Or would there be 3 different meanings for each use: por trabajo, para trabajo, para trabajar (the latter meaning for the purpose of work, correct?)
Thank you. Nicole
I noticed the sentence below in a quiz. I'm curious to know why "ese" is the natural choice here instead of "aquel." I had thought that both words should indicate maximum distance.
select ...AhíAlláAquíAllá, en ese país tan lejano, la gente trabaja demasiado.Hello! I often see the verb imaginar used in its reflexive form. Would ‘imaginarse’ be correct in this context as well? Thank you!
According to the Cervantes Institute "no porque" must be followed by the subjunctive. Not sure where you guys get that you can use indicative.
