If I wanted to say 'i may be going away on that day' would I use ir, irse or another verb? Also, would the verb be in the subjunctive?
Thanks in advance
Seems like I have seen hacer used in sentences like this. For example. El hizo re hipotecar la casa. Is this correct? Possible?
Hola Inma,
why the personal "a" is omitted here? - representar a las mujeres
Saludos
Ελισάβετ
In sentence 1 why is the verb "dar" which I thought means to give used instead of "ir"?
In sentence 2 I see Cuenco means basin. Is it being used to somehow mean since a young age?
In sentence 2, "19" is spoken with an "f" sound in it when I was expecting a "c" sound. . Is it a dialect, am I hearing it wrong, or am I wrong that 19 is "dieinueve"?
Thanks.
Accent should be on the a in cuál, not the u.
I understand it grammatically or literately. What I am trying to figure out is what the semantics is. The sentence seems breaking the semantic chain of the text. What is the author trying to tell us?
such a clear, beautiful soprano voice and a beautiful, blending chorus of young angels . . .
una voz de soprano tan clara y hermosa y un coro de ángeles jóvenes tan hermoso... .
I cannot find a word to add "blending" into the Spanish.
HELP?

i found these sentences when reading a book. this is my first time seeing how conseguir is used with another verb infinitive. may i ask for a explanation? is this usage where conseguir + infinitive carries the meaning of manage to do something (verb) similar to poder + infinitive?
I've used "le" for men AND women (e.g. "Un gusto conocerle!", "Pásenle" etc.), but the article says it's only for men. This is Spanish spoken in a Mexican-American household, so I don't know how that affects things-- could be improper Spanish, but I thought I'd check because I hear it often.
Why do some of the verbs get tildas?
se lo quiero comprar becomes comprárselo
and
se lo estamos decorando becomes estamos decorándoselo
