Hola!
I just wanted to double check this - so the pronouns are always used together?
e.g.: Me lo estoy pasando bien or Estoy pasándomelo bien,
but never: Me estoy pasándolo bien
I feel sure I've heard Spanish sentences with that arrangement before, but I can't think of an example. Does it work for some types of sentences but not others, or is it just never used that way?
Can you please speed up and make the replay of these writing exercises with more natural and less stilted voice? The accent is great but the replay sound unnaturally slow.
I think it would be helpful to add ahora mismo and ahorita to this list. From spending time in LatAm it is obvious to me that the meanings change depending on who you talk to... LOL. But they are very common to hear.
Buenos días,
"By the end of the afternoon" in English means "at the point at which the afternoon ended", and would normally be followed by "we *had* eaten..." i.e. looking back at what *had* already happened before that point, not "we ate...". It looks as though this has been translated as "Hacía el final de la tarde" or "Al final de la tarde" which would backtranslate as "Towards the end of the afternoon" or "At the end of the afternoon, we ate ..." i.e. looking back at what actually happened during the later part of the afternoon -- which makes more sense. I suggest tweaking the English to "Towards the end" or "At the end" to avoid this confusion.
¡Muchas gracias!
Why in this sentence usted is placed after tiene? "¿Tiene usted familia en el pueblo?" Shouldn't be, Usted tiene?
On the question that starts "Te quejas mucho,…" the hint says it's a list of complaints, but the things that are listed don't seem like complaints to me. I mean, who complains that someone doesn't snore? Maybe it's good to make the sentences non-sensical to emphasize the grammatical structure. Duolingo used to do that all the time, with horses cleaning the kitchen and cats moving the furniture…
How is this an example of an irregular past participle?
Mi amiga estaba harta y se fue.Why is the future/perfect future sometimes used for the same reason one could use conditional/perfect conditional?
Hi I cannot get the audio to Una Vida Nueva to work on my PC. Do I need to be on a paid subscription for this audio? Thank you
Hola,
Why doesn't the topic include the relative pronoun "lo que"?
