¨Consiguieron que las mujeres participaran¨ ... would ´participaron´ also be correct here, given the lack of uncertainty as to what was achieved?
Would 2001 years be los dos miles y uno año or would mil still be singular.
Hello Kwiziq,
Is there a rule for when to use 'a la calle'? I think I know the difference between por/en la calle but this 'a la calle' caught me out.
Kind regards
Dee
Inma, Shui and all - Sorry to be a nuisance: (you certainly do an absolutely incredible job, day after day; many thanks !) - but in the C1 dictation exercise "Verano en la azotea ", your 'tilde' in difícil needs correcting: (your version shows "No fue muy díficil de transformar") - see the original request at https://spanish.kwiziq.com/questions/view/dificil-dificil [19th June].
In the example sentence. "Nos felicitaron porque habíamos aprobado todo con una nota alta," why is haber in the imperfect? I think of passing or failing something as something that happens in a moment -- you receive your grade and either it is pass or fail -- not as an ongoing state of being. Could one say "hubimos aprobado" or would that be wrong?
Esta guerra habrá de acabar con la esperanza de paz de la gente.This war will put an end to people's hope for peace.
No te preocupes por lo que nunca ha de pasar.Don't worry about what will never happen.
Why is this second example not taking "haber" in the future tense also? Or is it just a bad English translation?
Hi,
In the above sentence could 'ir' replace 'irse'? If not, why not?
What is the meaning of 'irse' if not 'to go'? And, when would it be used?
Thank you.
