Why does should have done [something] use the present conditional rather than the perfect conditional?
Noté que el Día del Padre se escribe con mayúsculas en la escritura pero aquí no.
Just want to mention that they often use this "Impersonal Third Person Plural" construction for newspaper headlines here in latin America.
Didn't we learn in another lesson that we could substitute "que" for "porque"? Does that mean "debido a que" and "que" are also interchangeable via the transitive property? I feel like either I am misremembering or there are some nuances I'm not picking up on.
This was the question: How would you say "When I put the parasol on the beach it always blows away."?
If this is something that always happens, why was it wrong to use the indicative? I don't see the future here.
Is this an impersonal sentence?
The answer says "yes" but I think it can be "no". It seems more natural to translate this as "They have found a shipwreck on the beach." which could be a sentence from a story where "they" have been identified previously. Do you want us to answer "yes" for being "impersonal" whenever a sentence has no subject and uses third personal plural form of the main verb?
