I just took a quiz that included this (correct) answer: "ya sea salado o dulce" to complete the sentence "Me encanta la cocina francesa...." Why doesn't the 1st adjective change to agree in gender with "cocina"? I picked it anyway, as there was no option with "salada" (and it was the best available option) but it still struck me as incorrect.
The bot wants “para.” I can see how “para” works if the intention is to say they’ve scheduled their vacation to start at that time. But that’s not the intention that I get from the context. It seems more like this upcoming “puente” is a time period during which they’ll be on vacation and “por” is appropriate.
But this is to do with the nature of this sentence. For other sentences you can replace si with que, for example:
Me encantaría que vinera Carlos.
Me encantaría si viniera Carlos.
I held my breath several times!
Kwizbot ¡Aguanté la respiración varias veces!
You ¡Aguantaba la respiración muchas veces!
To me this seems this would be ongoing : that he held his breath while things were happening….
Could the imperfect be used as well in this case?
Thank you, Nicole
No lo puedo creer que el un porciento último en la nivel a1 es tan difícil como es lo a alcanzarlo.
hi what's the rule for using the subjunctive here?thank you
Sure "agua"means "water" but I think in this case the singer was saying "Look out now!" as a heads up for the band rhythm solo . . .
Hi Inma,
If you can skip tan solo as in the last example, how do you know whether the meaning is "just before" or "within"? For example:
A 2 minutos de empezar la película me llamó mi madre para charlar.
Couldn't this mean either that my mother called me just before the film started or that she called me just after it started?
Estar is a temporary condition so why is the answer ser regarding being sick?
Prefiero estudiar en un ambiente de inmersión. ¿Sería posible cambiar la interfaz a español, como un opción para cada usuario?
