I got this correct in the quiz b/c I followed the hint but I don't understand the use of Imperfecto over Indefinido here if there is a specific time period in the past identified. Why trabajaba rather than trabajo? (I know the hint says "used to" but the question still stands.) Thank you!
En el año 2010, usted ________ para una escuela primaria.In 2010, you used to work for a primary school.HINT: Conjugate "trabajar" in El Pretérito Imperfecto.
I would like to ak why is the accent in the audio on the second syllable?
Why is this the correct answer: Usted esta en la lista and not Usted estas en la lista?
This asked if this was correct. I put no as mar is a masculine noun, but this was marked as incorrect. The dictionary states it is a masculine noun. On the explanation this it states that it can be feminine in a poetic sense. This phrase is not in my opinion poetic but an observation.
Can you please explain this. Thanks
Another question from the quiz: "Las mamás quieren darles de mamar a sus bebés en el parque". In Spanish as spoken in Spain, wouldn't it be more common to use madres instead of mamás? Natives told me not to overuse mamá, papá, abuelito, mis papás etc. because they said it would sound childish.
Hello, in cases where cuál means what, is there a difference between cuál and lo que ?
Thanks !
RE" ¿Eres de Inglaterra?
Are you from England? (you=tú)
Hello, I hope you and the team are all doing well and keeping healthy!I have a question on the above:I'm suppose that means are you a native of England. But let's suppose that person came from England, but the person was visiting England and coming from there, would he/she still say:" Soy de Inglaterra"? Or would he/she have to totally rephrase it, and explain that they were visiting. How would you then state that you're from England, as you came from there.Thank you,NicoleFind your Spanish level for FREE
