I really enjoyed this passage, it even made me a little teary-eyed! The sentiment is lovely.
I just wanted to check...
Should the first sentence be using vosotros, i.e. Me recordáis a mi abuela, porque es que brilláis con luz propia como ella.
Maybe I'm missing something but isn't the rest of the passage referring to two people?
Gracias de antemano 😊
This rule does not work with amable. If you do an exercise on superlatives with a question on "amable" before you read the lesson on -co, -go, -ble, and -z endings you will make a mistake. Perhaps this lesson should should point out that -ble endings are an exception.
Of course I will always remember the rule now after spending some time trying to discover why "amablísimos" was wrong.
"Why did you tell Luisa......" seems to me to need the indefinite object pronoun as in "¿Por qué le habéis dicho a Luisa...." but this answer is marked as incorrect. Why? Isn't it actually the correct way to say this part of the sentence even though I haven't gotten to a lesson about these pronouns?
Hola Inma,
I couldn't find the link for the lesson you referred to in your reply, despite doing a search here.
"Do we use "iba" to show intention?"
Could you please give me the link. And Happy New Year!
Thank you,
Nicole
I answered: yo no dije esa palabra. Why is that marked as incorrect
Pensé que "encontrarse con" significaba un encuentro planeado mientras que "encontrarse a" significaba un encuentro casual. ¿Estoy equivocado?
This is more of a complaint that a question. There is confusion in tense nomenclature. What is often referred to here as Pretérito Perfecto is really Pretérito Perfecto Compuesto.
The Pretérito Perfecto Simple is referred to Pretérito Indefinido. The action in the Pretérito Perfecto Simple has definitely been "perfected". When doing quizzes quickly I often make a mistake when the Pretérito Perfecto is asked for. It would be nice if a uniform terminology were used in the teaching of Spanish
Hola Inma,
You mention in your answer to Lisa that you were going to create a studylist with nationalities that end in -e so we have them in one place to memorise. Is there a link to that list somewhere.
Gracias!
Me temo que Cristina no podrá ir hoy al trabajo ...
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.
