La palabra tablao ne es espanola, ¿no.? Me parece que sea portuguesa.
I used comenzar for start but it was corrected to empezar. What is the difference in the usage of the two verbs?
Hi. I remember learning that when we almost do something in the past, then we use the present tense, so that ¡casi me desmayé! would be ¡casi me desmayo!
Is this right or wrong or an acceptable alternative in speaking or writing?
Thanks
Stuart
What is the point of having a yo before the tengo. Cant you just put the Tengo.
Hola,
Los mariscos en Grecia estaban riquísimos
I would have said eran riquísimos - because it's a characteristic.
Why am I wrong? :)
Gracias,
I get that sentir goes before a noun and sentirse before an adjective. But in a test the question was "Yo siento que voy a explotar, comí demasiado."
How do we know whether to use sentir or sentirse in a sentence like this?
Do the grammar rules for "nunca" here also apply for "tampoco". Consider the following four sentences.
Ella no pudo entender tampoco la pregunta.
Ella no pudo entender la pregunta tampoco.
Ella no pudo tampoco entender la pregunta.
Ella tampoco pudo entender la pregunta.
Is there a lesson on, or can you talk a little bit about word order? An example says “esta era mí antigua escuela”. I would have said “escuela antigua“. Why is the adjective in front of the noun in this case? Gracias!
I'm not clear on the difference between Quedar and Quedarse when expressing results. The lesson says to use quedar to emphasize a result, and to use quedarse to express the result of a change. What's the difference, please? For instance, the following two examples seem pretty similar to me:
Seguro que quedarás contenta con tu pelado nuevo.
I am sure you will be/end up pleased with your new hair cut.
¡Laura va a quedarse pasmada con la noticia!
Laura will be astonished with the news!
Thanks.
Gracias por esta ejercicio. Fue muy útil. Tengo dos preguntas sobre un par de errores yo cometí. ¿Cual es la diferencia entre endurecer y fortalecer en este contexto? También, ¿cual es la diferencia entre mantenimiento y gestión? Gracias por su clarificación.
