really enjoyable seeing the action described so clearly
Voy para la casa de mi amigo. Is the use of para in this case particular to Spain? IN Mexico and New Mexico(where I live) I'm pretty sure the sentence would use the prepossition "a" as in Voy a la piscina.
Yesterday I was visiting my friend Jimena.
The best answer is:
Ayer estuve visitando a mi amiga Jimena.
Is it incorrect to say estaba visitando OR visitaba ?
I can't find any lessons on the differences.
Gracias
Good lesson. I like this concept of partitives.
Can we use "uno de" in place of "alguno de" to mean "one of"? Or is "alguno" only used in this context in Spanish?
Also, is there a list of partitives that use "de", such as "cada uno de" or "pocos de"?
Thanks!
In the question "¿________ semana te vas de vacaciones?" the answer was Que, but since a specific week was being requested, wouldn't the answer actually be Cual? (sorry it seems I cannot make letters with an accent in the Q&A Forum fields)
Hola. Creo que los ejemplos en esta lista son del pretérito y no del presente de subjuntivo.
Gracias.
Alicia, ¿a qué hora te ducha por la mañana?
Why use estaba when saying “I was very calm and happy”? It didn’t seem like an ongoing action in the past but one defined by “after my swim”. Why not estuve?
