I just saw it in the forum and I think it should be added to the lesson since it is quite common.
To me it seems like such a long process for gustar to become "natural".
I literally have to parse every gustar sentence so that the pronoun tells me who is being liked, the verb then tells who is being liked (not who is doing the liking!):
me gustas = by me you are liked = I like youte gusto = by you I am liked = You like meEven though the pronoun-object at the beginning tells who is doing the liking, that becomes the object in English. So, the verb ending confirms what the subject really is . . . Is there any easier way or does ease of use eventually come with familiarity?https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/my-languages/spanish/tests/take/3466192
this one is in English and no way to get correct answers
I reported this as an issue, and perhaps should have brought it up here instead. For one of the quizzes, the answer is
A veces __me olvido de__ que llevamos casados 20 años. (Sometimes I forget that we've been married for 20 years.)
I noticed that the verb *olvidar* is being used intransitively and that, even though the "accidental se" is being used, that olvido is not in the third person. (It's not in the preterite / no accent on the o). I'm having trouble finding an example of this on the lesson page.
Thanks!
I missed “que” in my comment below. Shirley.
Why not “estos pantalones, cuáles he tenido “?
Notice how in Spanish we need toadd "y" between the tens and the units (cincuenta y cuatro). Three thousand six hundred and six.
(HINT: Write the number in letters in Spanish (not digits))Three thousand six hundred and six.(HINT: Write the number in letters in Spanish (not digits))Three thousand six hundred and six.(HINT: Write the number in letters in Spanish (not digits)) But there’s no y in this correct answer: Tres mil seiscientos seisJust wondering if we can use the preterite tense for questions or if the present perfect tense is the only option. There are two examples of questions, both using the present perfect tense: ¿Tú has montado en globo? ¿Has jugado al golf alguna vez?
Thanks.
Can this website teach me the majority of spanish grammar or do i have to use other resources?
Pitting your last two points against each other, should this be "Y email?" or "E email?"
