reflexive spanish verbs are in the infinitive form when followed by pronoun, but the bot says: "separame: and I said: separarme . Pls explain why?Kwizbot Pero ahora no podría separame de mi "handbike" You pero ahora no podria separarme de mi handbike. I think wizbot is incorrect: from what I have learned so far, and having checked online, reflexive spanish verbs are in the infinitive form when followed by pronoun. Also per Spanishdict.com they say: “Reflexive pronouns are attached to the end of affirmative commands. For compound verbs like the present progressive, the pronoun can either be attached to the end of the infinitive or present participle or go before the conjugated verb.” Thank you! Nicole

I see that your tip says that the degree of probability is the same for indicative and subjunctive. Thst they are interchangeable.

I had never heard that before.So, I can retract my question.

Why do we say "pasear al perro" instead of "pasear el perro". Why is the "al" used?

We went for a walk

There seem be so many ways to say this in Spanish: "fuimos a dar un paseo" is one I hear a lot. "Hemos paseado" (or "hemos caminado") translates as "we have walked" rather than "went for,.". It's very confusing!

Error in exercise

In the exercise we are asked to translate: "Also, they would teach them a new language and accompany them in their daily games." The answer given is "También, les enseñaría un idioma nuevo y los acompañaría en sus juegos diarios." but this should be enseñarían.

The problem seems to be that the hint in the exercise doesn't match the actual text: "También, el robot les enseñaría un idioma nuevo y los acompañaría en sus juegos diarios."

.I don't understand your answer. I used present subjunctive yo form and the answer was in the indicative

Es verano is correct

Es verano is completely correct. When you guys have ambigious test questions like this -- and there are MANY on this web site -- it gets frustrating.

Les defendía. Why les and not los... is it not a direct object pronoun? Thank you
