Included in the possible answers in the mini-quiz are:
1. Ni un bocadillo ni un burrito me apetece. (Correct)
2. Me apetece ni un bocadillo ni un burrito. (Incorrect)
Can you please explain how placing "Me apetece" at the beginning of the sentence instead of the end changes the meaning and makes it incorrect?
Many thanks.
Since the preposition “a” as a personal “a” wouldn’t “les” also be a correct?
Can I use it without and with que interchangeably?
Hi,
The two problems with use of English posted some time ago are still not fixed. Hence, I'm still struggling to get to grips with this lesson.
"If I went to the hairdresser's" in English means; "If I were to go". They are equivqlent.
Similarly. "If he had an accident" is equivalent to " if he were to have an accident".
In both cases, the first sentence is common usage. The second using the the subjunctive is very uncommon in everyday English.
Hi, just a small error. Both examples are the same.
Fui a su casa para hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.
Here, we could have used the preposition "a"with the same intention:
Fui a su casa a hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.I understand that pronouns can be left out and the subject is determined by the context of the sentence. I am not very familiar with Castillian, so can "vosotros" be left out in the above sentence and still be grammatically correct?
Hemos facturado mucho este año. ________, los jefes nos han dado incentivos.We billed a lot this year. Moreover, the bosses gave us incentives.
