Hi,
Es esencial que haya un acuerdo entre ellos
1)It is essential that THERE IS an agreement between them. Using "there is" rather than "come". What do you think? Come implies in the future.
2)Why is "los pájaros irán HAYA donde comida" Why HAYA in the subjuntive
Clearly spoken and a nice addition to vocabulary but what is the significance of the two girls from Guadalupe? Is Guadalupe Victoria DUR the home town of Daniela?
If the main clause uses a tense that implies a past action, for example El Pretérito Indefinido or El Pretérito Pluscuamperfecto,then the por si/por si acaso clause uses a past tense.
Habríamos is conditional tense
Hi,
The link to the above takes you to a page with the sub-heading 'Spanish Present Perfect'.
I thought 'preterite' was always related to the past as it says in the text on that page. So, why is it present perfect in Spanish?
Thanks.
Colin
Por qué en la primera oración “ que por qué”?
Se echan a reír - laughing. What does echarse mean in this case ?
This is the third time in the past month that I'm finding loaded leftist political sentences in the quizes. You guys should really leave politics out of the learning environment. It's a huge turnoff. It makes you guys look very ignorant and extremist. One sentence for example was celebrating socialism. Very inappropriate to say the least.
Hiya,
I used ‘como imaginarías’ to translate ‘as you may imagine’. I had my English conditional head on. Would that be acceptable and understandable?
Many thanks,
Dan
I read elsewhere that when quedar is used to express the idea of ending up in an emotional or physical state, it does not require reflexive pronoun. Is this accurate ? So if I have a scenario of 2 persons fighting and the one of them left a mark on the second and it left him standing still from the shock. Do we use ‘se queda inmóvil’ or ‘queda inmóvil’ ?
