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.
This example is wrong, no? Quizá Miguel no aprobara.
This is in the imperfect subjunctive. Shouldn't it be apruebe?
What’s the reasoning for ruling out el pluscuamperfecto de subjuntivo?
de tantas horas que estuviera trabajandoFor example: Nosotros nos reímos siempre con esa película. We always laugh at that movie. I would have never known to use "con." I would have chosen "a."
And, Ustedes se ríen de los niños. You laugh at the children. Again, I would have chosen "a" instead of "de." Why "con" in one sentence and "de" in another?
Will there be lessons on how to choose the correct preposition, or is it a matter of memorising the conjunction with the noun?
The question reads: Nosotros ____________ pocas cosas.” English sentence reads: “We don’t say much.” I put down “no decimos” which was marked wrong for just “decimos”. Not sure why “no” wouldn’t precede “decimos” in this sentence. Please advise. Thanks.
The lesson states the following:
Cierto can also mean "verdadero/seguro" (true/truthful/sure/reliable). In this case, used with a noun, the adjective cierto is placed after the noun. For example:
¿Es cierto lo que dijo Marcos ayer?Is it true what Marcos said yesterday?In the example above cierto is following a verb. Am I missing something?
I don't understand what the following excerpt from the lesson is supposed to mean:
Es + bueno [adjective]Está + bien [adverb]
Can you please clarify what this means in prose rather than abreviated notation?
Sure "agua"means "water" but I think in this case the singer was saying "Look out now!" as a heads up for the band rhythm solo . . .
