In Question 6 of the quiz, 'podamos' is used in the sentence. Shouldn't this be 'podemos' or is it used in the subjunctive tense?
Thank you.
According to the kwiz, there are 2 correct answers to the question:
haya ganado ( my answer)
ganara ( imperfect subjunctive)
The page on the subjunctive does not address using these subjunctives interchangeably. I learned that when the subjunctive trigger is in the present tense ( no está seguro) and the event being considered is in the past ( won the competition), the present perfect subjunctive is called for. Do you have a lesson the the distinction?
When I hear the phrase "la falda es bonita", it sounds like "la fine-da ...". I would expect to hear something like "foul-da". Do you agree? I have to admit it has taken me years and a pair of good hearing aids to make progress with hearing Spanish pronunciation. Thank you for your excellent Spanish learning application!
Hola, tengos dudas en la acentuación de las palabras arriba. Según lo que he estudiado "compráoslos" no sería correcto. La tilde debería ser en o: "cómpraoslos".
También en otras palabras tengo dudas de la accentuación.
No estoy segura. ¿Si esto (lo que esta escrito en los ejercicios)es correcto por favor digame cómo?
Is lleva interchangeable with está and what is the difference between the two? Thank you
I am a little confused with the following quiz sentence/ answer: 'Tardé pocas horas en hacerlo.', for which the correct answer is 'pocas horas'. Why wouldn't 'unas pocas horas' also be correct?
I would like to know how can I go to next lesson after I finish answering the questions on this page.
Thank you so much!
One of the questions in this section was:
Mi prima ________ Miss Universo. .My cousin was Miss UniverseHINT: Conjugate "ser" in Pretérito indefinido
I got this correct (fue), because of the section it is in, but would it not be better to use the imperfect for this example? Mi prima era Miss Universo. There is no time frame involved, outside of being in the past. Does it really matter? Just wondering. Thank you.
Would it be correct to use Porque at the start of a sentence....e.g. instead of
Como estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy.
Porque estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy
HELP: Translation of "He goes to his friend's house"
1 Va a la casa de su amigo
2 Va a casa de su amigo
Is the definite article "la" casa necessary or does it make no difference?
Are both correct with no subtle difference in meaning?
I have searched the internet and KWIZIQ and can find no answer.
Many thanks,
Ian
