Flirt !

Hello,

In this workout there is a sentence - 'I have a new couch' the spanish translation in the answer and the complete text at the end it 'tengo sofá nuevo',  should it be 'tengo un sofá nuevo'?  I did notice that the lessons recommended for this section did include the lesson for indefinite articles.
Thanks, but now my wife wants a new sofa :-(

Hola,

Al final del párrafo, encontramos la frase "Finalmente, la gente no irá a la oficina y trabajarán desde casa". ¿Porqué es "trabajarán" y no "trabajará", si sabemos que el sujeto de la frase es "la gente"?

Muchas gracias,

Amy

If one translates: "I learned everything" 

It is written: "J'ai tout appris."

But if I translate:  "I learned everything I needed to know"

It is written:  "J'ai appris tout ce que j'avais besoin de savoir."

Why does "tout" move out from between the verb to behind it?  Is it because of the subordinate phrase?

If one wanted to say: "Police officers are needed at the bank entrance"

One can say: "Se necesitan policías en la entrada del banco."

In sentences like this can "policías" ever precede the verb?  (ie "Policías se necesitan..." 

Does this mean I would never use EL or Un with Te?

Thank You

Hi,

I find some of the recorded examples too fast to clearly hear the pronunciation. Is there a way of slowing it on replay?

This leads to another question: when Spanish is spoken quickly, can some of the sounds be omitted or words run together.

Thank you.
