"In Spanish, nouns can be preceded by numbers." Can the numbers be other places?
If they can would you give examples. Sounds like all the numbers are invariable if below 199. 200 and above agree with noun that it is in front of. And the agreement goes with the hundreds.
100 when it becomes 101 the word for 100 becomes Ciento Is it only ciento when working with nouns. Say in general counting ciento also. People are talking about a cienta. Maybe does not happen.
Do we have link to learn about numbers?
All the examples are in present tense.
How do we know if something is countable. I don't think we can count stars.
And we can count money. trees... I can count in my yard but not in forest.
I am going to Costa Rica. Should I learn to use Vos? Or is it best for non-native speakers to stick to usted and maybe tú?
On another course, an example conversation between novio and novia goes: “usted sabe que lo amo. Vayamos al cine, hay una película nueva que quiero que veamos. Me muero por que usted la vea”. It was partly my frustration that there was no explanation of the use of usted here that led me to look for another course. Can anyone here explain this to me? Is this a regional peculiarity? Maybe Colombia? Thanks.
with NOUNs the mas or menos is before the noun.
with verbs They are after the conjugated verb.
when used as a pronoun is after the noun it talking about. Has words in front of it
and their might be a name for those sorts of words.
so the question are these kinda "rules"
A story I had a teacher and first words the son said was "mas" talking about food.
I am curious of the "la he" / "las he" used in a few examples. In what lesson is that discussed? Thank you.
Nice lesson! In what cases would use of the definite article be mandatory, grammatically speaking?
Also, as far as I can tell, the pronoun's gender does not relate to the gender of a person, the definite article can provide that clarification when needed.
Thank you.
Why does ‘a ti’ carry an accent in your examples ? I understand “a mí’ does it to differentiate itself from ‘mi’ but there is no reason for ‘ti’ to carry an accent.
