Buenas tardes Silvia y Inma,
I do understand the use of 'sentir' instead of 'oler' when referring to the 'being able to smell the aroma'. I was wondering though if 'sentir' is used in mainland Spain as well as in Latin America? Also, is 'sentir' used with any other of the 'senses', i.e. to touch, etc.?
Gracias.
Hola, what does ya mean in this sentence. Muchas gracias, Shirley.
Why is it eres (ballerina) And not eres una (ballerina)
When do i use este and when do i use esto? For example: Este camion es muy grande vs esto camion es muy grande
Can you use estar para + noun? e.g. Miguel no está para bromas
Muchas gracias por compartir esta leyenda.
Sinceramente,
I. Pati Ecuamiga
You say in the notes:
"Sartén" is more often feminine than masculine, but both genders are correct.But in the most recent exercise I did, when the question was is "ese sartén" correct, given the gender of the noun, and I said no, my answer was marked wrong.
Is there an inconsistency somewhere?
I am currently taking lessons from a tutor from Latin American who told me that in describing past experiences you would specifically use the past perfecto-He viajado en Mexica instead of the preterito. You contradict this. I wonder if this means you can actually use either and it's just a preference.
