“Usted tendría que devolver los
artículos en la caja. (You would have
to return the articles at the till.)
HINT: Conjugate "tener que"' in El
Condicional Simple.
“No entiendo “the till.” In the US would be the cashier, I think. In Latin America, perhaps “el cajero.” “The till” has various contations in the US and some border on the negative. From Miriam-Webster:
till
noun (1)
\ ˈtil \Definition of till (Entry 4 of 5)
1a: a money drawer in a store or bankalso : CASH REGISTERb: a box, drawer, or tray in a receptacle (such as a cabinet or chest) used especially for valuables2a: the money contained in a tillb: a supply of especially ready money?El porque' y el motivo son iguales?
I use this site everyday it is helping me with my Spanish but there is a problem. I would very much like to kwiz this and other topics again, that I have difficulty with, but I am unable to. The glitch in this link/program will not let me reKwiz no matter how many times I try. To reKwiz would help me to learn but the program is broken.
Lesson Haciendo Snowboard en Formigal: I couldn't find how to add it to notebook. Can you help me? Randy
I reported this as an issue, and perhaps should have brought it up here instead. For one of the quizzes, the answer is
A veces __me olvido de__ que llevamos casados 20 años. (Sometimes I forget that we've been married for 20 years.)
I noticed that the verb *olvidar* is being used intransitively and that, even though the "accidental se" is being used, that olvido is not in the third person. (It's not in the preterite / no accent on the o). I'm having trouble finding an example of this on the lesson page.
Thanks!
Será mejor que tú ________ tu carrera universitaria pronto.You'd better start your university studies soon.(HINT: Conjugate "comenzar" in El Presente de Subjuntivo)I would translate as it will be better that you start your university studies soon but you have translated with would be - (is this a mistake on the question given in the test?)
if it was conditional ie sería mejor que ......then I would translate -it would be better that you start .....
Please can you clarify this for me thank you juliecomiences
For "I will get my nails shaped" we were told to "use the construction for 'to have something done'" - so [following your guidelines for sentences of that type] I put: "me daré forma a las uñas", but this was incorrect. However, "*le* daré forma a las uñas" was among the options allowed?
I am a bit upset at the fact that a hint given on a test made me change the correct answer to an incorrect. I just finished 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 after seeing the hint, I changed it to "tienen" even though I thought, or knew it was wrong. I changed it based on the hint. Imagine my dismay when I found out the answer was "son" and I had known it in the first place.The European pronunciation is really weird-sounding. "Z" pronounced as "f," "c" pronounced as "th," and "vodka" sounded like "votha." And this is the first time I heard a "g" pronounced as it was in "ginebra." I guess I need to do more of these listening exercises! Or is it too much trouble to include a Latin American version?
when choosing adjectives for las lámparas, rosa but not rosas was offered as a choice. Why not rosas?
