I said this phrase was incorrect as I though the a in ave would change the una to an un.
However I was marked wrong and apparently it is a correct phrase.
Is this another exception to the rule?
you hear - oyen but can hear is pueden oir, no?
Hola Silvia / Inma,
I came across the phrase above with a meaning of "at sunrise, first light." The word "amanezca" appears to be 1st / 3rd person subjunctive. Can you help me understand this construction please?
Saludos. John
Hello
I searched to find the reply but was not successful. Could you let me know the reply to her question. Thank you. Nicole
This is Pati's question below:
"I'm unsure when (and when not) to use a + pronouns when also using an indirect object pronoun. I understand emphasis, but not real clear when to place emphasis. When I use it normally, it seems redundant. "
I understand the lesson well.However, I want to ask whether one of your sentences could have been written better.', incorporating "Lo" from a previous lesson.. Su oración en español fue: Ayer, estuve pensando en cómo nos conocimos. Pues, yo no me acuerdo. ¿ lo podía ser mejor si usáramos : ...Pues, yo no lo acuerdo?
In the Tip it says that the above este etc can be used as demonstrative pronouns. This is not quite correct as demonstrative pronouns are éste ,ésta, They have a hyphen above the e . Where as esto is similar in both cases
Can the speaker say, ¨Ojalá aprueba el examen¨
or does he have to say it the other way, ¨Espero aprobar el examen.¨
Thanks.
Hello and I hope you and yours and the team are all doing well.
Re: This lesson;|
Would it be safe to say that this comes under the umbrella of the "passive" and if not, why?
Thank you!
Nicole
Is this an impersonal sentence?
The answer says "yes" but I think it can be "no". It seems more natural to translate this as "They have found a shipwreck on the beach." which could be a sentence from a story where "they" have been identified previously. Do you want us to answer "yes" for being "impersonal" whenever a sentence has no subject and uses third personal plural form of the main verb?
Falta la DE, ¿no?
It seems I need to add more detail, so:
The drop-down menu for this question on forming the plural of nouns that end in -e gives four possible answers, none of which includes “de” after “especies”.
