Hola Inma & Shui,

Just to let you know that the B2 Writing Exercise in the latest Weekend Workout isn't available.

B2 How to make a good homemade wine

Gracias y saludos

Also, would "va a darte" also be correct?

I do not have a Spanish keyboard so cannot put in the accents

I don't understand why the imperfect "Teníamos que llevar" is used and not the preterite. After studying again when to use imperfect, it would seem that this sentence is " We used to have to wear" or "We were having to wear", whereas "We had to wear" would be "Tuvimos que llevar".  I can't see how the phrase "We had to wear protective hats" suggests it is ongoing and not completed. Obviously I'm wrong but I don't get it.

"Alfredo se quedó tan sorprendido que se puso pálido"

Por qué no es "se puso tan sorprendido"? En la explicación de grammática 'Using convertirse en / ponerse / hacerse / quedarse´, se dice que se debería usar ´quedar´ por los cambios permenantes, y poner por los temporales.

Hi there,.

I'm struggling to find a translation for el garillo. Could you explain what this phrase means? (me voy a llevar la mano con el garillo)

Many thanks

Dee

¡Chicos, esto no es justo...otra vez! ;))  Hablando de cosas tan deliciosas...me encantan los pintxos y por supuesto me encanta el vino de Rioja. 

¡Bueno, eso es todo, me voy a España para comer algo de buena comida y vino! Jajajaja :))

P.S. Thank you for all the fantastic and really informative translation exercises that you provide for us. I really enjoy them!
