His family's situation saddens them. : ___ la situación de su familia.
How to say "something bores/annoys/saddens you"
La respuesta para esto es "les entristece" pero pensé que familia es singular? Porque no es " le entristece"?
Gracias.
I was just reading over the questions, and wondered about this one:
"with some adjectives like mucho/mucha, hambre would take the feminine form (mucha hambre). It works the same way as the word "agua": (el agua caliente, but mucha agua caliente)"
Is there a rule and lesson that covers this? It certainly is a curious phenomena.

I have read all the correspondance around this lesson, but my problem has not surfaced. It is this:-
if 'mirar' is intransitive and needs pronoun 'a' before inanimate objects, then I don't have a problem. If, however, it is transitive and takes a direct object ( of inanimate objects ) then I cannot see why there is an indirect object pronoun at all. Can you explain?
I would like to find the lessons that correlate to the 'bad' areas of my brainmap, to add them to a notebook. In a perfect world, I would just click on the brainmap area to get to them, but as this isn't possible, what's the quickest way to find them please?
¡Hola!
Could you please provide me with Spanish equivalents for modal structures of probabality:
-Must/might/may/could + be (+ V-ing);
past probabality:
-Must have/might have/may have/could have + past participle (+ V-ing);
and their negative forms
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Alexander
Why do you say "votar por" and not "para", since the person you vote for benefits?
Hi there, I love the summer too, but I'll need a little help with the word "Allá" please.
One of the answers given in this test was "y suelo ir allá mucho", the suggestes lesson for this part of the quiz was aqui, ahi & alli, but not sign of allá... I'm wondering if allá is so far away we can't even see it :-)
Please would you help?
Gerunds are nouns formed from verbs. The "ing" words you are translating here are called present participles. Gerunds & present participles have the same form in English, but they are different in Spanish. Eg. I like dancing=me gusta bailar. I am dancing= Estoy bailando.
