Hi!
I noticed that when writing that "you" like something, you change the tú form from "vas a" to "va a" even though you are writing that "you" will like something. For example, the sentence "you are going to like this therapy" is written as "Te va a gustar...." instead of "Te vas a gustar..." even though you are not instructed to write in usted form. Could someone please explain why this is?
Thank you!
So if it's a female trabajador or inversor then it's changed to la trabajadora and inversora ? Then following to Las and unas inversoras?
Thanks you
I'm having trouble consistently distinguishing between using 'a' or 'en' when talking about being somewhere.
For instance, in the dialog, "... Alberto estará en la reunión...",
Would we say "estará en la reunión" to mean someone will be 'in' the meeting, while "estará a la reunión" has a connotation indicating a location 'at' the meeting?
Or is it always customary to use 'en' in cases like this?
¡Hola!
didn't need to (infinitive) & needn't have (past participle) are used to express the lack of necessity in the past, however
didn't need implies that the speaker didn't do something because he/she new that it was not necessary
needn't have means the speaker did something and then he/she knew that it had not been necessary
for example:
I didn't need to have an interview because I had worked there before
I needn't have cooked dinner. Just as it was ready, Chris and June phoned to say that they couldn't come to eat
(examples are taken from Advanced Grammar in Use by Martin Hewings)
How can I express it in Spanish?
Regards,
Alexander
Is it correct to answer questions with numbers in invariable form, that is, the same form that we use when we count?
Ex: ¿Cuántas personas hay en el aula? --> Hay doscientos uno.
Ex: ¿Cuánta cuestan estas? --> Quinientos veintiuno.
Thanks.
