His family's situation saddens them. : ___ la situación de su familia.
How to say "something bores/annoys/saddens you"
La respuesta para esto es "les entristece" pero pensé que familia es singular? Porque no es " le entristece"?
Gracias.
These verbs all mean "to turn", but are they the same?
Thank u so much
¿es posibe usa detestar en lugar de odiar?
"Ayer hice unas baleadas para mis invitados y les encantó."
Would "encantarón" be more appropriate here, since it is the (plural) baleadas that are being so much enjoyed (that are "enchanting")? Or is it implied that it is the act of making the baleadas (hice unas baleadas) that is enchanting, and therefore the singular, encantó is better here?
Is it because despierta is being used as an adjective here? Thank you
¡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
“Maria told us there was a meeting at 4”
hubo is incorrect here, but I thought with a set time it became ‘hubo’? What am I missing?
