The structure seems clear: a las dos horas de = within two hours of; a los tres años de = within three years of, etc. The question was this, though:
________, tuve que llamar al médico.
Within 2 hours of being sick, I had to call the doctor.My answer was: a las dos horas de vomitar, whereas the correct answer was a las dos horas vomitar. ¿Por qué?Why is “looking for solutions for their diseases” translated in the singular “su enfermedad” instead of the plural “sus enfermedades”? Thank you.
Note that the last example above expressing it's about to rain, could also use por with the same meaning: "Está por llover"
Hola, what is the difference between estar por and estar para. Muchas gracias, shirley.
To say "He must have closed the door.", does one simply switch to the present indicative of deber and say "Él debe haber cerrado la puerta." or can one stay with the simple conditional and say "Debería haber cerrado la puerta." and translate it into English as must or should, depending on context?
I think this issue boils down to trying to know when to translate deber as "should" or as "must". ¿Puedes ayudarme?
I wonder to know whether the second sentence need add ´´la´´ to indicate ´´the´´ meaning or not? Thanks.
Nosotros todavía no salimos del trabajo. /We haven't yet left work.
Juan todavía no salió de casa. /Juan has not left the house yet.
Esta ha sido la competición más importante que jamás se haya celebrado. Why not celebrada to agree w/competición? Thx
¿La culinaria es sinónimo de la cocina? Entonces, ¿es correcto escribir “ les encantará la culinaria colombiana?”
what is the difference between como estas? and que estas?
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to take the DELE B2 exam and I have a question about the reading section. I know that part of the reading exam tests grammar through gap-fill exercises. I’m wondering: how much does this overlap with the grammar content taught in Kwiziq B2 courses?
In other words, if I master all the grammar lessons on Kwiziq (assuming my vocabulary is sufficient), would I likely be able to pass the reading section comfortably, say, at least 20/25 points?
I’m not asking about listening, speaking, or writing, just the grammar-related part of reading.
Thanks in advance for any insights from those who have taken the exam!
"siente que su grado de veterinaria no le llena."
Why is it "le" and not "la"?
