Let us imagine the following scenario. There is a crowd of people at a cinema. what would the ticket controller use to invite those who had bought tickets in advance. haya or han comprado/reservado?
Hola,
Can I check my understanding of one of the questions I completed please. The question was ¿Crees que es bueno que Juan ________? (venga).
I thought that when we use "Creer" [I think / believe] it takes the indicative because it is our opinion / belief, there isn't an element of doubt. My question is, does it take the subjunctive because it is a question about what someone else thinks / believes?
Thanks. John
Que tal,
How interchangeable are tras and detrás? Is one preferred over another, and if so, does it vary by country or age or context?
I'm think about basic use meaning 'behind,' such as "El niño se escondía tras (detrás) las cortinas."
Thanks!
Hola Inma, - hopefully you will be seeing this or it can be forwarded to you :)
I was glad to hear your voice. Hope you and yours are well and the team are all well.
1) I was interested in finding out why the author chose to use the verb "estar" instead of "ser" for
"It's delicious" regarding "harira" It seems to me this would always be "delicious"!
(1-1: I wish I could copy/paste here, but for some reason can't. Is there a way I could do that?
Also I like to keep track of my lessons and errors and notes etc.)
Gracias,
Nicole
I thought the answer were plural, muchas for feminine. However, the answer is mucho. May I know what is the reason.
Just curious! Is there a difference in use in terms of formal/informal register with these two constructions, or is “tan...como” just more common? Thanks!
Can "Hemos quedado" mean "we have arranged to meet" AND /OR "we met"?
Might it also be understood as "We stayed"? I know quedarse should be used for staying somewhere.
Hi,
In the sentence above, the translation of "... comer sano." is given as '... eat healthily'. Doesn't 'sano' mean 'healthy' and 'sanamente' mean healthily?
I'm sorry to be so pedantic, but I like to get things right at the start.
Best regards,
Colin
¿Qué diferencia entre arreglar y reparar?
Muchas gracias
In an example above you say, "Ellos estan delgados". I thought SER was used to describe physical characteristics i.e. "El es alto." To say Ellos estan delgados would imply they are thin now but they didn't used to be thin. Or that they appear thin. Or am I wrong?
