Que inocente y romantico! Mi lo gusta! Yo espero mas!
I was searching for a little information on reflexive verbs and ended up with the best lesson yet! By following the links at Reflexive verbs I found so much valuable information that I'll be breathless for the next few days as I absorb it all . . .Thanks Inma
It it not constructive for my learning, that I get wrong answers in my tests, when I use European Spanish, because the tests sometimes use European and sometimes Latin American. It is confusing. And from a learning perspective not efficient
When I'm requested to answer a question including the word 'you' as in 'do you like...?' it doesn't specify whether you are asking one person or more than one. I have answered for one person and the answer has been the plural answer so it says I'm wrong.
in numbers is this 12:45With digital times. Do people do like 2:05 or 2:55 some how.Pondering... I would guess people have usual ways they do it. I don't think I have ever said 15 to 2... always 145. ... and you have appointment at say 2. The person might say you appointment is in 10 minutes if the time is 1:50. I think digital clocks have changed things. I wonder if children growing up now know what clockwise means and counter clockwise. ??? Spanish prolly has words for that too.
Would we use this format: quiero medio kilo de res molido, quiero un mitad de una copa de vino, añade tres cuartos de una tasa de azucar, dame doble de lo que diste a él. Thanks. (PS The return key doesn’t work in this question box on the iPad.)
Looking forward to seeing some content here.
Gracias
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.
As equivalent English examples, may I suggest:
To be opened with care.
To be applied...
rather than "Let it be opened..." etc?
In regard to "In Spain, there is a large family of potters" has the hint: "put "large" in front of "family", potter = alfarero/a".
The first hint seems a little misleading. Shouldn't we use "familia grande" and not "gran familia" if we are translating large family since it describes the size of the family rather than the quality/inherent characteristic of greatness of the family?
