Si quiero enviar a mi hijo a mi hermana, sí puedo decirle a mi mujer "Voy a enviarselo" pero no puedo decirle a mi hijo "Voy a enviarlete". Ambas oraciones son de forma verbo+enclítico de OI+enclítico de OD. ¿Qué hace que una sea correcta y la otra no lo sea? (Intento que se=hermana, lo=hijo, le=hermana, te=hijo.)
Fill in the blank with the doler verb that best completes each sentence: A mí _____ _______ los brazos.
The sentence, "Fernando will begin complaining when he arrives". If he always complains about everything, would it be "cuando llega"?
This was listed as B2, but required knowledge from C1 areas: Using dicho, dicha, dichos, dichas to say this/these (formal) and Using Spanish relatives el que, la que, los que, las que = the one/ones who/that (relative pronouns)
I never thought that I was misusing definite articles until this exercise. Apparently, I either add a definitive article when it's not required or omit it when it is. Is there a rule that I'm missing with this?
For example: For "Asimismo, gobiernos y organizaciones trabajan en políticas para una gestión sostenible del agua.", I wrote: "Asimismo, LOS gobiernos y organizaciones trabajan en LAS políticas para una gestión sostenible del agua". Why shouldn't I use definite articles where I did?
Una vez alcanzado su tamaño máximo, la larva se prepara para.....
Should this be una vez alcanzada as it refers to the feminine noun larva ?
Gracias
Hello. The following example in this lesson threw me off: "After the party we will call a taxi" (Despues de fiesta llamamos un taxi). My question is why was the present tense ("llamamos"), and not the future tense ("llamaremos"), used here? My guess is that the future time is very short (i.e., right after the party). If this is correct, is there a general rule for a given time frame that would require use of the future tense? Thank you for any clarification.
