Hi, I have to write an essay in Spanish about my personal life how do I say "MMA fighter" in Spanish would it "peleador de la MMA"which is what I have been taught or "luchador de la MMA" and what is the difference (I need European Spanish if that makes a difference)
I would just like to request more examples for practice before this particular lesson gets to the Kwiz Questions. And thanks for adding the Latin America option!
Hi Inma
Am I right to assume that these essentially translate into English as the same thing? Otherwise, could you explain any other differences in meaning that might exist?
1) Su avión ha debido retrasarse
2) Su avión debe haberse retrasado
AND that adding 'de' also makes no difference to the meaning (other than maybe 'strengthening' the assumption as we learned about here: Spanish modal verb Deber versus Deber de (obligation and assumption))?
Saludos
Mi preguntita es el verbo sospechar tiene sendido de duda. Si en la frase Ella NO SOSPECHA... quiere decir que no tiene ni una duda. Está muy segura que Marcos está en Rusia. y el verbo de Marcos puede usar "está"?
Él pudo irse de vacaciones
why we use 'irse' in this sentence? instead of 'ir'
Since both the Present Perfect "hemos podido viajar" and Preterite "pudimos viajar" are correct for this question (it is both limited to a set past time period and the speaker is obviously involved in the action), shouldn't the lesson explain that sometimes both options are acceptable?
The "hint" for the last sentence was quite misleading. Clearly, the "lit" English translation is not "what information so interesting."
Qué taninformación tan interesante información!
You could also say:
¡Qué información más interesante!
Here's the hint we gave you:Lit: What so interesting information!
Please explain Me quisiera vs quisiera
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.
