- Ella cree que habrá consecuencias.
- Creía que era una bicicleta por participante.
Because the subject in the two examples above believed/thought that …(creer que) …, I would have used the subjunctive in the second clauses. I equated this to querer que and esperar que both being followed by the subjunctive. What am I missing?
"En su tiempo libre a Rafa le gusta jugar al golf, pescar, leer libros, ir al cine, ver series, pasar tiempo con su familia y cocinar platos de pasta."
Here all the things Rafa do in the free time please him and make him like them, why the verb "gustar" is not in plurar, since there are more than one inf. verb, thought gustan makes more sense. Could you plesae help me out.
I used 'a donde' as on of three possible answers, but was marked wrong:
IMPORTANT
For the long forms adónde and adonde, it is also perfectly acceptable to write them as two separate words:
adonde = a dondeadónde = a dóndeFor example:
Iremos adonde/a donde tú quieras.¿Adónde/a dónde vas?I am having difficulty understanding the difference in terminology between "impersonal se" and "passive reflexive se" and in particular the difference in their translation into English. ¿Puedes ayudarme?
Would another way of explaining the difference be to say that in English you could get the meaning of the imperfect by saying "The teacher [was] opened[ing] the door" and the indefinido as "The teacher [had] opened the door"
I am very confused. In the above lesson it describes when to use poder in the preterite indefinido.
in this lesson there seems to be No specific moment in the past or where speaker is outside the time frame
This lesson "Conjugate poder in the preterite tense in Spanish (El Pretérito Indefinido)" it describes when to use the preterite indfinido when referring to a specific moment in past and time it happened is relevent OR referes to pastwhere speakersees themselves outside the time frame
I understand that saying:
"Hoy, hace mucho calor" and "Hoy hace frio" are both correct.
Is it correct to use the adjective, "caliente" to describe the weather?
And, if so, would you say: "Esta mucho caliente." or "Hace mucho caliente." ?
Gracias!
In English it’s only math, never the plural “maths.” This word doesn’t exist.
