Spanish language Q&A Forum

I personally find it helpful to bear in mind that all verbs ending in "-etir" follow the above-mentioned e>i pattern [like competir] - e.g. repetir and derretir.

And - because 'd' is just the voiced form of 't' - some people may like to extend this guide to include all the "-edir" verbs as well; e.g. pedir, impedir, medir.

Note that primero (first) and tercero (third) have a shorter form when they are placed in front of a masculine singular noun. " Then when are primero and tercero used, if ever?

Where does the word "Librólogo" come from, please? Is it a play on the word Librero/a?

Is there a difference between saying 'Llevamos trabajando en este proyecto durante meses' vs 'Hemos estado trabajando en este proyecto durante meses' or are both structures practically interchangeable?

This is marked wrong with continúa as the answer (my answer), yet continúa is the correct answer for the present tense and according to your own "help" text. There seems to be a lot of sloppy "teaching" in Progress Spanish lately.

Im not sure when to use each of these tenses. Are they interchangable?

This is a good topic.  Do we need a Direct Object pronoun with other pronouns, as in the following:

- (Les) saludé a todos.

- (La) busco a alguien.

- No (lo) ha visto a nadie.

Thanks.

Hello Inma,

The C1 level is surprisingly difficult because it focuses primarily on conversational Spanish with all its nuances, intentions, implied meanings and especially its idiomatic expressions.
