(1) Most of the adverbs on the list are used with adjectives: demasiado verdes, muy estricta, un poco cansadas, bastante ruidoso, tan rápidamente.
(2) But mucho is different as it is used with verbs: te quiere mucho, no dormí mucho. And it wouldn’t seem to work with adjectives, for example, los platanos están mucho verdes needs to be stated as muy verdes.
(3) Tanto is different again, as it functions as a direct object. No puedes comer tanto.
Are these differences important, and should we learn more about these different categories of adverbs? Thanks.
Hi,
Would this be acceptable?
Le apasionan las películas de los 50 a María
And, if so, is it commonly used?
Many thanks
Este texto no es largo. Tienen textos mas mas largos :) . Lo se, ya que he aprendido casi cada texto de niveles A1 y A2 y , los me ayudan mucho hablar y entender! Gracias por su trabajo!
How is the answer un poco mas and not case ti metiste? I asked my peruvian friend and she thought it was also the second. It's past tense i'm confused
I am still confused when to use and when to omit the definite article. I end up guessing, which is sometimes right and often wrong. Example 1: "En lo que se refiere a incendios forestales." We're talking about forest fires in general and there is no definite article "los". Example 2: "Es importante que no nos olvidemos del cambio climatico." The English statement is that we must not forget about climate change in general. This time there is the definite article "el" or "del". Is there a rule or guideline that might clear this up for me? Thanks.
Could you please explain why ''menos'' cannot be accepted here? I went through the lesson above, but for some reason, I'm not seeing if there are sort of exceptions when only ''excepto'' can be accepted, and menos would be incorrect. Thank you in advance
It would be so much nicer if one didn't need to scroll up and down the page during the exercise. Surely by resizing some of the components on the screen it should be possible to dispense with the need to scroll between each segment of the exercise, no?
Of course, if a cell phone is used that might cause more scrolling etc but on a 14" laptop screen it should be easy enough to presnet a page that's more concise . . .
can i clarify that why isn't "hay tantas cosas por hacer" correct instead of "Hay tantas cosas que hacer"? It would be useful if you could direct me to the relevant notes, if there is.
Another question is that, why is "todos los vecinos de la comunidad" using tuvimos instead of tuvieron when they had a meeting?
One last one is to clarify is "representar" + preposition A, a fixed expression to express on behalf of (someone) and that in this sentence, it is not personal A because we are referring to a general group of people? or the group of neighbors are not considered as general but specific persons?
Your replies are much appreciated. thanks.
In the quiz, I selected "Había muchos niños en el parque." This was marked wrong, rather, "Hubo muchos niños en el parque."
I'm wondering why my answer was marked wrong, given that one of the examples in the lesson is nearly identical to my answer: "Había un perro en el parque."
