It seems to me that telling someone else that their own car works beautifully would indicate that the knowledge is shared and thus subjunctive (funcione) but that was marked incorrect. Please clarify.
I am surprised that there is not a note on this question: what's in (your bag)?
It may seem tempting to translate "is" to "esta'" but actually "is" means "is there" so it should be "hay". I thought this is an interesting case to be included in this lesson. :)
can we use disfrazado instead of vestir ?
for this sentence, We were all dressed in white
estabamos disfazados en blanco? is this correct?
Does it matter when you use which?
When do we not use the articles like "en casa" instead of "en la casa"?
Here in Mexico it is common to say “cervesa bien fría”. (Just to reinforce what you Mentioned about Latin American usage).
Hi,
Es esencial que haya un acuerdo entre ellos
1)It is essential that THERE IS an agreement between them. Using "there is" rather than "come". What do you think? Come implies in the future.
2)Why is "los pájaros irán HAYA donde comida" Why HAYA in the subjuntive
My CLAVE dictionary implies that the phrase "consist of ..." [in today's translation exercise "Thriving ecosystems in Costa Rica"] may be translated by "constar de ..." as well as by "consistir en ..." - but it implies that there is a subtle difference between them. If so, this might be worth mentioning?
Los cuales las cuales en el hotel
"Hacía varios días que alguien me acosaba" means:
Someone was stalking me for several days.
I was stalked for several days by someone.
Someone had stalked me for several days.
None of these answer carry the sense of being in the time frame of the past the way the examples do, such as "someone had been stalking me for several days". In English, I don't think the 2nd or 3rd answer are functionally any different. The first one is the only one to partly give a sense that this is an ongoing thing, even though it doesn't give the same frame of reference.
I suggest you change the available answers.
