She has been working there
The best answer is:Compare your answerElla he hecho trabajado ayahtrabaja allá
You could also say:Ella trabaja allí
When you say "colloquially", is it a less formal/ slang-like way to use it?
And which region is it used?
Hola,
Trying to understand why this isn't an indicative? Seems more of a statement of fact? (appreciate that I guess that this is pointing to future occasions they will wake the dog - seems a very grey area!)
It is odd that the children wake up the dog so early.
Es extraño que los niños despierten al perro tan temprano.
Gracias,
Hello. Can you please explain why the definite article isn't used in this phrase? Is it similar to the difference between "en casa" (at home) and "en la casa" (in the house, as in a physical location)? Thank you!
This lesson has no explanation as to when and why to use this tense .
The lesson on pluscamperfecto is also poor.
As a result I am frustrated.
Examples alone are not sufficient.
Thanks!
Nick
Can I switch the two parts of the sentence and keep the basic structure of each clause and keep the meaning? For example, instead of "Haciendo unos muebles de madera me corté con la sierra.", could I say: "Me corté con la sierra haciendo unos muebles de madera."
I find it interesting [and useful] that in the constructions described here, the *Present* Subjunctive is allowed - whereas we can never put a Present Subjunctive immediately after a "Si ... " > (It usually has to be an *Imperfect* Subjunctive; or perhaps a Pluperfect one?) ... Perhaps we can say that the events in this lesson are more likely to happen than those in a "Si + Imperf. Subj." clause?
