Trick questions like this one don't help and no one is going to put that adjective in front of axe in Spanish. Smh. I like this web site but the way you guys format questions is really annoying at times. The questions should reflect how a native is MOST LIKELY to say something, not "well let's mess with these people trying to learn a language and confuse them at the same time."
I used "Cuál" thinking that what's on television is a limited, although large, selection. Like the example: "Cuál es tu flor favorita".
Why is "Qué" used here?
How would you say he/she has?
I am having an extremely hard time telling the difference between "how" I feel and "what" I feel (so I know when to use "sentirse" and when not to use it.)
Also, I don't know how to tell what is an adjective and what is a noun. There don't seem to be standard endings for adjectives. (orgulloso, alegre, frustrado, etc.)
I thought Ojalá had the accent on the last A.
Hola a todos. I primarily use SpanishDict.com for my Spanish-English dictionary. Has anyone run across other options you like for LatAm Spanish? Gracias de antemano por sus sugerencias.
Surely both versions are about "how" the speaker feels:
Cada vez que veo esa película siento escalofríos. - Every time I see that movie it gives me the shivers. (lit: I feel the shivers)
versus: Rafael se siente mareado. ¡Trae un vaso de agua! - -Rafael is feeling dizzy. Bring a glass of water!
There must be a better way to determine which version to use, no?
Or is it that with sentir it's when an external force is affecting the speaker and with sentirse it's a matter of personal, internal sensation/emotion. It seems to be a very fine line of definition . . .
How to differentiate "Hay" from "Tener"?
Like ‘como uvas’ , can we say ‘yo como uvas’ too, and why is there no ‘I’?
