Spanish language Q&A Forum

I am curious how this structure would work if the direct object is a pronoun, something like the following.

I had a beautiful beer mug.  I accidentally dropped it.

Could we also use “un poco de” and “unos pocos” in this manner?  Thanks.

Looking at Inma's 
Sin/sin que + infinitive/subjuntive in Spanish (subordinate manner clause)%252Fsearch%253Fs%253Dsin%252Bque - and favouring the simpler construction when it is permitted, presumably we could also say? > "... [alcancen su potencial] sin verse afectada su integridad física y moral".

I am having the exact same problem on the quiz/test item for this lesson as Linda is having. The percentage does not rise above 93.7.

Hello! It says that the video is unavailable. I live in the United States.

I’m not very clear how “lo que” and “que” are different in the context of surprise declarations ….?

Hi,

I have just completed an A1 test where the missing word(s) were required in this sentence:

Siempre ________ confundo haciendo este ejercicio.

The hint was that the reflexive verb 'confundirse' was used.

My answer was 'Siempre yo me confundo ...' and was marked wrong.  The correct answer dropped the 'yo'.  Is that correct?  Surely, both answers are correct, although mine may not be commonly spoken.

Best regards,

Colin

Dear Kwizteam,

I noticed that this construction places a comma before 'que' but not before 'porque'.  In English, if the subordinate clause follows the independent clause, there is no comma.  In Spanish, does this depend on the type of subordinate conjunction used?

Regards.

Hola Inma,

Just to say that this is a great lesson, and goes a long way to making clear something that I have found very difficult.

Thanks a million. John
