Hola Inma,
Can you clear something up for me?The question was given in this format "Está bien que vosotros ________ todas las noches."
It seems like an impersonal statement but isn't the usual structure Ser+Adjetivo+Que ..... hence: "Es bueno que leáis todas las noches?"
Saludos. John
I interpret "es" as "is", so how/why is "He" assumed for "Es un excelente actor." -> "He is an excellent actor"?
In the test question: ¿Quién es ________ de tus amigos? (Who is the most generous of your friends?)
I incorrectly assumed that because "de tus amigos" doesn't specify the gender of "Quien es" in Spanish, that "lo" would be appropriate rather than "el" (correct answer). Because only the response can reveal the gender e.g. - "Carla es la más generosa de mis amigos" o "Jorge es el más generoso de mis amigos". In other words, why is "el" correct in this case even if the "quién es" might turn out to be female? (I did notice that the hint was "generous = generoso" but (falsely?) assumed it was being generic rather than specifying un amigo masculino).
Can you please clarify?
Thank you
Are the three connectives synonymous or is there a slight difference in their meaning?
I feel like I've heard some people use "bastante" to mean "a lot." Like, "En mi ciudad, hay bastantes lugares para salir." Is that accurate?
Un avión no se monta, se vuela en aviones.
Is it my imagination, or is the speaker saying "yo soy debajo" instead of "yo soy bajo"?
Please explain when we should use "Yo soy " and "Yo estas" - in what contexts??
THank you
