Even with the adjusted text I don't get the joke at all either.
Hello Kwiziq team,
As always I love your content but had a query about this particular question...
I did get the correct answer to this question (picaróna); however i was wondering why it isn’t “una poca” instead of “un poco” when the friend you’re talking about is feminine (as it’s amiga not amigo).
Here’s the question:
Tu amiga es un poco ________. Your friend is a bit mischievous.HINT: "picarón" = masculine for mischievous
Thank you in advance! Fran
In the example sentence. "Nos felicitaron porque habíamos aprobado todo con una nota alta," why is haber in the imperfect? I think of passing or failing something as something that happens in a moment -- you receive your grade and either it is pass or fail -- not as an ongoing state of being. Could one say "hubimos aprobado" or would that be wrong?
In the quiz I just did, the question was: “¡Qué ________ tiene ese hombre!” and the answer was manazas. Is there a reason that Mano with an “o” ending becomes Manazas and not Manazos? Is it simply because Mano is feminine even though it ends with an “o”?
Hi, do you have a lesson anywhere that addresses when the subjunctive or indicative is used after constructions like “no dudo que” I was taught they required the indicative, but an example in another lesson called for the subjunctive, and when I searched online I found a lot of personal opinions, but not a good authoritative source. Thanks!
Here is your example from a Kwiziq that prompted me to research more:
No dudo que ________un buen lugar para celebrar la boda. I don't doubt you will choose a good place to celebrate the wedding.HINT: Conjugate the vosotros form of "elegir" in El Presente Subjuntivo.
Do the brackets around “a” mean that it can be used at the speaker’s discretion, or its use sometimes or always required?
Could I have said, “Os animo que vengáis” or “Me han animado comprar un perro” ?
In the quiz question "se les han acabado las camisetas que me gustaban" what job is "les" doing?
Hola, I see most of the reflective verb examples are habitual sentences, such as "todas las mananas", "todos los dias", 'siempre" etc. Is this usually how a reflective verb would be used? at least in the beginner's context? Gracias
Hola,
Bit confused by the stipulation for this. Is it purely down to the speaker’s discretion as to whether a definitive article is required post ‘de’?
I see examples with and examples without and am confused where the line is.
Gracias,
Hello,
I'd like to pop back to a lower level for a few lessions and quizes, apart from hitting the "test now" button, which immediatelt tests you without the benefit of seeing the lessions, is there an easy way to do this?
Thanks
