hi, in the case of saying ´en algún libro´etc where we mean some book, a book non specifically, can we use ´un´ in place of ´algún´?
This triggers subjunctive. may i ask if this is because this sentence is asking for advice?
Because i remember that only negative construction of opinions will trigger subjunctive, for example i dont think that = no creo que..
or is this understanding of mine wrong too?
thanks
I understand it grammatically or literately. What I am trying to figure out is what the semantics is. The sentence seems breaking the semantic chain of the text. What is the author trying to tell us?
Why is this tense called indefinite. How do I know whether to use the indefinite rather than the perfect?
A couple of quizzes ago i was marked wrong for putting the object pronouns in front of the verbal structure. Unfortunately I can't get back to that quiz now to check, but I was sure they could go either before the whole verbal structure of be added onto the gerund/infinitive. The correction on my answer was to put the pronouns at the end of the infinitive/gerund.
In the lesson on using perfecto vs indefinido, above the "tip block", the term "El Preterito Perfecto" is used twice. Probably the second use is an oversight.
Which one is correct:
Tres es más que dos.
Tres es más de dos.
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?
I answered: yo no dije esa palabra. Why is that marked as incorrect
