I like the example Ellas trabajaron hasta tarde ayer because it is more clear than They worked late yesterday. Is it incorrect to say Ellas trabajaron tarde ayer (without "hasta")?
As an aside, I would never write "They worked late yesterday," because the tonal emphasis given to "late" and "yesterday" conveys subtle differences of meaning.
Why does my lesson include 'vosotros'/'sois'and other lessons from European Spanish. I am trying to learn Latin Spanish and have set my account to Latin Spanish. This is very confusing if you actually try to teach me a different language to the one that I chose.
Estoy confusado con el uso de gran fogata en vez de fogata grande, por su leccion, position of adjectives in Spanish, dice que gran/grande antes del pronombre significa Great, y despues Big/large. Es esto un Great bonfire, or a Large Bonfire? Puede corregir mi pregunta, gracias de antemano
Parecen que ser y estar aqui estan de intercambio.
I really enjoy reading Spanish history. Do you have anything on the Inquisition?
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)
I was looking for more practice. I can't seem to find "fill in the blanks" for mucho, muchas, Muy and so on. The Kwiz only offers a sentence or two. Do you have a section just for intensifiers themselves?
There are a number of good questions below about the use of the preterite vs the imperfect. There is some confusion about the speaker choosing to bend the rules in order to express an action in a certain way. This is a very useful topic and might be a good lesson of its own, "When the speaker bends the rules for a specific reason".
