Hello,
In the following sentence I expected está, as "but it is very cold". Have I got this wrong?
"El agua es clara, pero esta muy fría."
Thanks
The bank WOULD lend, therefore should this not be conditional eg El banco te PRESTARÍA más dinero?
In the lesson, I answered the question, Maria, ___ es bastante seria normalmente cantó en público ayer, with ,"la que". It was marked incorrect, with "que" being shown as correct. I thought they were interchange.
Hi,
Just wanted to share a thought as a person using this platform to learn Spanish. At the end of the exercise when you show the whole text in Spanish, I feel like it would be helpful if you showed the entire text in English as well, as it would help in trying to look back at how you translated everything as a whole.
Hello Inma, I don't think you understood my question earlier.
I was wondering why there isn't the "personal a" before each name in the example. There is only one a in the example with 2 names. Why isn't there 2 personal a, before each name? In all your examples, the sentences only have one person in each of your examples. I know I've seen before an A before each person/pet when there are 2 or more in a sentence.
Why is it "a Paula y Cristina" and not "a Paula y a Cristina" ?
Just wondering if the heading should be "CAERSE" instead of "CAER" as all the examples are reflexive. This confused me for a moment.
Also, there's an interesting use of "traer" here in Mexico. If we only have a large bill to pay with at a small store and we want to say "Do you have change?", we don't say "Tienes cambio?" Instead we say "Traes cambio?"
All these verbs are present tense + present subjunctive. Can I use the same construction with the conditional, in those cases where we are “softening” a request?
Such as: “Yo prefería que regreses más pronto.”
Or does that need a different structure? Thank you!
It is quite fascinating - and interesting - to learn some of the "nicknames" given to people who live in certain cities - here: Huesca > oscenses. A few of them cannot easily be guessed, such as Huelva > onubenses.
Hasta ver este video había tenido la impresión de que exclusivamente se usa la frase "de x a x" para decir "from x to x," pero dice el narrador que las Picotas del Jerte "darán la vuelta al mundo de paladar en paladar."
¿También habría sido aceptable decir "de paladar a paladar"?
In the test the question was:
I become a vegetarian while my sister becomes a vegan. : Yo me hago vegetariana mientras mi hermana se haga vegana.
Shouldn't it be "mientras mi hermana se hace vegana"? Since mientras is used as "while" in this sentence?
Thanks much
