¡Qué tazón de café me he tomado esta mañana!I had a really big cup of coffee this morning!
Your answer to Marcos does not explain why a feminine version exists since, as you say, 'When we form a noun using the augmentative suffix -ón, the new word is always masculine, regardless of the gender of the originating noun. This is because nouns ending in -ón are generally masculine’.
Hi, I've just come across a use of estar + hecho that I didn't know before:
Tu hermano está hecho un hombretón.
That doesn't seem to be quite the same as the usage here, and I cannot find any reference to this kind of estar + hecho elsewhere on kwiziq...
In the answer, the first sentence is future tense, but the second sentence is conditional tense? What is going on? Why are not both these sentences either future or conditional?
Hello,
Can you give some examples or guidelines on when and what contexts to use different words/phrases for "everywhere". For example, I'm confused when or what contexts to use dondequiera, por todas partes, por todos lados, and doquiere/por doquiere. Thanks very much for clarification.
Hi, does discretamente here mean “quietly”? Gracias, Shirley.
At the top of my page it says: Note that this is a Europe focused lesson. Your active focus is Latin America
Obviously Latin America covers a huge range of countries/dialects but generally speaking how would this differ in Latin America?
Thanks!
Would it be helpful to explain this way?
sentado/a(s) = seated; tumbado/a(s) = laid?
You: Sin embargo, mis amigos contaron a los niños historias de miedo.Kwizbot: Sin embargo, mis amigos contaron a los niños cuentos de miedo..
Why "historias de miedo" marked wrong after a los niños, is there any rule we have to just put cuneto instead of historia after 'a los niños'. Please answer.
Thansk!!
In sentence 1 why is the verb "dar" which I thought means to give used instead of "ir"?
In sentence 2 I see Cuenco means basin. Is it being used to somehow mean since a young age?
In sentence 2, "19" is spoken with an "f" sound in it when I was expecting a "c" sound. . Is it a dialect, am I hearing it wrong, or am I wrong that 19 is "dieinueve"?
Thanks.
