Te ________ hasta que me aburrí y me fui.I was waiting for you until I got bored and left.
Twice now I have entered 'estaba' but the correct answer is shown to be 'estuve'. I thought that when an action is either interrupted or where there is no specific beginning or end, it's the imperfect. Can you please clarify? Thank you.
can ¡Qué loco! be written as ¡cuánto loco! ?
Can i also say 'no necesitas más que obtener una licencia matrimonial' ?
Just a reminder that " sé" is also the affirmative imperative form of "ser" for "tú".
Ex: ¡Sé muy lista!
(Hope to save people having to look it up.)
Hi,
Which sentence softens the meaning of the word "serious"?HINT: serio = serious
Why does serio become seriecillo when it doesn't end with an e or a constant?
Is it common in Spanish to have two words seriecilla / seriecillo that are almost similar yet so different in meaning?
Thank you!
When should I use the past progressive rather than the imperfect tense
Hi. Why is there ya pague and not ya he pagado? Is it not latin american Spanish?
Hello,
re: Lo que pase con tu madre no es tu culpa .
I came across this sentence containing "Lo que" but for the life of me, can't figure out (by only looking at the Spanish) that "lo que" here means "whatever" and would therefore trigger the subjunctive.
How can I tell what is being intended by just reading such a sentence and be able to choose between "what" and "whatever"?
Thank you,
Nicole
Hola,
I thought assumption about the past (must have + verb) was expressed by means of DEBE (Deber in El Presented) + Infinitivo Compuesto, however the following examples refute it:
Los chicos han debido de beber bastante porque huelen a alcohol.
They boys must have drunk quite a lot as they smell of alcohol.
El tren debió de llegar sobre las cuatro y media.
The train must have arrived at about four thirty.
Could you please clarify this point, because I'm feeling a bit confused
