¡Feliz Navidad a Inma, Shui y todo el equipo...que lo paséis bien! :))
¿Porque usamos la expresión, "no esté aquí", en lugar de "no estoy aquí"?
¿Qué significa la palabra, "esté", exactamente?
¿es lo tiempo presente subjuntivo? después de más investigación, Yo pienso que significa, "would not be here".
Gracias, Jaime
the same way it would be incorrect to say in English:
"The coffee changes the colour of your teeth."
The Latin Americans have a very rich history and culture.
The trouble is that both can be perfectly correct! The former example could mean "This particular type of coffee", for example, whilst the latter is valid just as we might say "The French" or "The Spanish".
In all the examples, “no” comes before the verb, but it’s not explained in the lesson. Is it always required?
Is it correct to say: Ya me pongo a duchar
Or should it reflector that both verbs are reflexive ie: Ya me pongo a ducharme.
The latter just sounds a little weird to me.
Shouldn’t the last sentence of the second paragraph have “de” between “trasladar” and “el corte?”
I just reviewed the A1 lesson on veces/vez in which "sometimes" equals "algunas veces," but in examples above, "sometimes" equals "a veces." Is there a difference? Is "a veces" simply a more convenient way of saying "algunas veces?" Thank you.
Hola,
Just wanna clarify the translated answer for "I almost fainted". The correct answer given in the exercise is "¡Casi me desmayé!". On the lesson on 'Using por poco/casi/un poco más y + present tense for nearly/almost', says the verb should be conjugated in El Presente so my answer was "Casi me desmayo" which was marked as incorrect. Are there other considerations we should note with this construction?
Thanks,
Benhur
Are these translations also valid:
"It was magnificent!" = "¡Qué magnífico!"
"I arrived in just two hours!" = "¡Tardé solo dos horas en llegar!"
"We also drank cava!" = "¡Bebimos cava también!"
Also, can "Después" be changed with "Luego"?
