Hello all,
I’m very new to Spanish.
Im looking for a lesson on general numbers, but can’t see one. There are some on big numbers, but nothing on numbers like 23, 59,73,98,123 etc.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction ?
Gracias
Me llamo Richard
So, I'm trying to solidify this idea in my head by contrasting it with the imperfecto de subjuntivo. Is the subordinate clause not in the subjunctive here because the speaker (presumably the 3rd party and the person repeating the statement) take for granted the factual of the idea (ie in the sentence "el hombre de tiempo dijo que llovería hoy" that the idea that it is going to rain is considered a fact, and not a supposition.
I am confused because we are practicing the present tense of the verb but why are the examples in the present continuous?
Hiya,
I used ‘como imaginarías’ to translate ‘as you may imagine’. I had my English conditional head on. Would that be acceptable and understandable?
Many thanks,
Dan
I read elsewhere that when quedar is used to express the idea of ending up in an emotional or physical state, it does not require reflexive pronoun. Is this accurate ? So if I have a scenario of 2 persons fighting and the one of them left a mark on the second and it left him standing still from the shock. Do we use ‘se queda inmóvil’ or ‘queda inmóvil’ ?
Regarding the hints in the tests. Sometimes the hint says to conjugate in "El pretérito Perfecto Compuesto" and other times just "El pretérito Perfecto". If I enter El pretérito Perfecto simple it's incorrect. The study buttons take you to the same lesson, and seem to be asking for the same answer, am I missing something?
"I am a Gemini" would be a better English translation for this exercise. I use standard American English. :)
