In the same way that galesa in the first example is equivalent to "Welsh," perhaps Esta torera es cordobesa is more equivalent to "This bullfighter (female) is Cordoban."
Why is it hubo fuegos artificiales when fireworks is plural? Why would it not be hubieron fuegos artificiales?
Hi! Is there any difference between the prepositions en and sobre with the verb pensar? E.g. can I say Ellos siempre piensan sobre el trabajo ?
Ese hombre me recuerda mucho a mi padre. Tiene los mismos ojos.
That man reminds me of my dad. He has the same eyes.
La escena de amor en la película me recuerda a nuestra primera cita.
The love scene in the movie reminds me of our first date.
Both of these examples use "me recuerda a"
In the quiz:
El olor de esta comida ________ mi niñez.
The smell of that food reminds me of my childhood.
The answer is: me recuerda
Could you please explain why the "a" is omitted in this example?
Sometimes with monosyllabic words we make this suffix even longer: -ececillo, -ececilla, -ececillos, -ececillas:
El bebé jugaba con sus piececillos.The baby played with his little feet.Also, should the e be in bold for “ececillos”. Gracias,Shirley.How do learners remember when to use the "de" described above? Do native speakers learn it only from growing up with the language? I don't see any particular rule for knowing when to use the "de" and when not to--how "wrong" is it to omit the "de?"
?El porque' y el motivo son iguales?
"Yo tomo el café con menos leche"--why is "tomo" shown as "have" in the English translation? It is a very common phrase in English to say "I take my coffee with . . . ," so was there a reason to change it to "here?"
