I saw a sentence "Nos pasamos El día" it means we spent the day, but "Pasamos el día" means the same thing as well. I always get confused what's the reason behind using "NOS" in the first sentence.
Tu tiene should be correct but only tiene was accepted as correct. I have learnt that both should be accpeted.
Please can you verify this.
is using desde = from okay for this context? and why not?
Hello! It says that the video is unavailable. I live in the United States.
Te Llamas - Informally, I have learnt in theory, that it should be correct although Que te llamas is formal!
Lovely expression but took a bit of research to find what it means:
¿Cómo puedes dejarte ver con esas pintas? How can I show you around looking like that?¿Cómo puede salir en la tele con esas pintas? How can she go on TV looking like that?
No debe ser fácil con esas pintas. Can't be easy in that getup.
Hope this helps others
My inclination is to go with the imperfective when talking about someone who has died, as I think of it in terms of general description about who they were:
“My mother was an amazing woman. She was an excellent teacher, and loved her work.”
Am I correct that the imperfect is most appropriate in this situation? Would putting a time limit trigger the preterite?
“She was a teacher for 20 years, and loved her work.”
Can you please tell me when to use 'eso' and when to use 'ese' or 'esa'. In the sentence, 'Eso es un paraguas.' why 'eso' and not 'ese'? And, is the usage of 'esto' similar?
Thank you.
