In this lesson, you have a note near the bottom saying literal translations from English to Spanish don't always work and to not say: "No puedo esperar a..." (I can't wait to...). I notice Shawn offered an option to say “no ver la hora de…”. But I haven’t found other standard or colloquial ways to say, in Spanish, “I can’t wait to…”. Can you help with that? Thanks!
Why couldn't the answer be, "Pudieras haber perdido" since it was hypothetical and you didn't actually lose your job?
I put argentina nacional instead of nacional argentina. Can't the adjective go after the noun here or does it have to be before it? Thanks.
Wouldn't that sentence better translate to "Maria eats little bread."?
And "Maria doesn't eat much bread." better translate to "María no come mucho pan."?
How is the future perfect used for probability in the past
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
Hola,
Just to confirm, although I think it is implied already - formal usage is with le/les?
Gracias,
Y despues? Quiero saber que pasa con Angela y Roberto!
Can this also mean ´order them for yourself´ or ´yourselves´ in a formal
situation?
