Si yo quisiera decir "the more people i meet, the happier i will be", ¿sería "Cuanta más gente conozca yo, más feliz seré", o "Cuanta más gente a la que conozca yo, más feliz seré?
Nice lesson! In what cases would use of the definite article be mandatory, grammatically speaking?
Also, as far as I can tell, the pronoun's gender does not relate to the gender of a person, the definite article can provide that clarification when needed.
Thank you.
Do I need to use sino que when any conjugated verb follows, or only when the conjugated verb is different from the conjugated verb in the first clause? If the verbs are the same (vas a +infinitive) which is correct?
"El anuncio decía que" shouldn't we use "Indefinido" here, as the action we're talking about was done yesterday. We are not describing here?
So, pura vida is used instead of hola or cómo estás? How would one translate pura vida in a casual conversation? As "hello", "how are you" or as "awesome" or something else?
Hello.
I wonder why we used the preterito perfecto de sujuntivo in this sentence, instead of the presente de sujuntivo. Aside from the given hint to use the said verb, can you explain why? Thank you.
Me gustaria saber mas sobre el uso del verbo ECHAR. Hay muchas oraciones con este verbo en el articulo. Gracias!
Hola Inma,
I can’t work out why whether the information is already known to the parties concerned, that the subjunctive is used [in the pretérito imperfecto].
Also why using the pretérito indefinido would indicate that the information is new information.
In other words what is the logic behind this when forming the subjunctive? I completely get the idea of a hypothetical idea requiring the subjunctive, but the aspect of whether the information is already familiar to the people concerned, is confusing me. Saludos. John
