Spanish language Q&A Forum

When used as a compound adjective, as it is here, "last minute" requires a hyphen between "last" and "minute," thus: "last-minute." When it's inside a prepositional phrase, however, as in "he found offers at the last minute," no hyphen is necessary. 

The hints provided were not correct on this one. It asked for Preterito Perfecto when it was Preterito indefinido and so on. Take a look at this, please.

Hola

Cual es correcta?

1. No fuimos nosotras quienes hicimos caer a esa mujer.

2. No fuimos nosotras quienes hicieron caer a esa mujer.

Cual es la regla? #3 con 1 plural y #4 con 3 plural.

3. Somos nosotros quienes podemos hacer la diferencia.

We're the ones who can make a difference.

4. Seamos nosotros quienes se hagan ricos con esto.

So it might as well be us who get rich on it.

Gracias de antemano

Hola. Solo para que sepan... 

Esta pregunta apareció en el Quiz. Mi cuenta tiene la versión latinoamerica activada, y normalmente no vemos preguntas sobre conjugaciones de vosotros porque no la usamos. 

Es probable que ________ en el intento.It's possible that you'll die trying.(HINT: Using the "vosotros" form, conjugate "morir" in El Presente de Subjuntivo.)

Hola,

I have a particular interest in art, so I enjoyed doing this exercise. Yet, I have to agree with David that this lesson was possibly more challenging than the AI level. 

I needed to listen to the measurements several times because I was unfamiliar with the use of "veinte coma dos" for example. (Although, I should have guessed, since this is similar to the French use of a comma instead of a decimal point.) After the first measurement, I was able to understand the second one. A good learning experience for me. I am coming back to Spanish, and have a lot to review and much more to learn for the first time.

May I suggest that there is a link to a lesson about numbers with decimals? 

Gracias y Saludos

Hola

In relation to "después de que", I have questions:

(1) why "hallase" (instead of "se halla") is used in this sentence:

"...es el final de un camino [...] después de que la Guardia Civil hallase en la 'tablet' de la víctima un enigmático mensaje."

(2) what construction is this? what are the grammar rules?

Muchas gracias.

Do other verbs fit this pattern? Or, just these two -ir verbs?

How does one determine whether to use "sido" or "estado" with haber in such instances as "I have been a good person..." or "I have been seen with ..." or "I have not been trying hard to..."?

Also, with regard to "he, has, ha....etc.", is this conjugation referred to as the present perfect indicative, the past perfect indicative (preterito perfecto), or both?

elija las construcciones que mejor se adapten a contexto de la frase: (ir a +infinitivo,pensar +infinitivo, presente, futuro)

1.te Lo juro - siempre ........... a tu lado, incluso dentro de 30 años.

2.Qué........ el viernes, porque no veo que tengas ningún plan concreto.

3.qué edad crees que tiene la sra. nowakowa? creo que .......... unos 45, pero no estoy seguro.

4. en julio .............. a la playa con toda la familia, ya hemos reservado una casa de campo y comprado los biletes.

Hello,

Can you please explain why in this exercise it is only correct to use preterito imperfecto in the third sentence: Teníamos que conseguir muchos puntos para acceder al tesoro escondido - even though the story starts in the indefinido tense. A few sentences later it jumps again to indefinido: Este juego nos ayudó a ser pacientes - while the rest of the sentences are in the imperfecto tense.

Thank you :)
