I understood pretty much all the sounds in this piece with the exception of 'gallega'. To my (inadequate) hearing it sounded as if the narrator began the word with the letter 'r'.
What, if any, are the circumstances in which "si" introduces a clause that is followed by the indicative mode of a verb, rather than the subjunctive mode?
Hola,
My translators consistently omit the "unos" before "270 huesos" in the phrase "pero los bebés nacen con unos 270 huesos que se fusionan con el tiempo". Is it grammatically correct to exclude the unos ? Or is it included simply for aesthetic reasons?
Saludos
Kevin
Madre Mía ! ... It was probably more like a C2-level translation, not a C1? ... Anyway - thank you for encouraging us to tackle it !
Isn´t this a perífrasis? If so, it would be nice to label it with Perífrasis verbal in the title like the other ones for consistency and for searching for perífrasis to study.
I´m having fluctuating percentages for topics that I´ve created a notebook for and was correct on for over 30 times in a row. The percentage goes up and down but never significantly improves, even after getting them correct 10 times in a row it will drop from 97% to 91%. Can the percentages consistently reflect progress?
The two topics in particular are:
A0: Using vivo en + [city/country/region] to say where you live in Spanish
A0: How to say I have / you have in Spanish (possession)
I'm not sure if i like this new format... not sure if it's my computer or an update on your end, but any time i select an answer (even if i try clicking outside of it), it's saying that the questions is unanswered... i don't understand why it's not accepting my answers when I am selecting them.. it's BEYOND frustrating.
One of the examples is:
Su actitud se volvió violenta de repente.
Is it correct to assume that the change is a lasting one, as with someone who got hit on the head with a shovel and after that was a violent person?
Compared to:
Su actitud se puso violenta de repente.
In this case, cowboys in a saloon in a Western movie insult someone and he stands up quickly and draws his gun?
Just want to double check that these differences are correct. Thanks.
