“Nunca hubieras pensado que hubiese tantas formas de disculparse.” Hola, this sentence is from the B2 Listening exercise on how to apologize in spanish. I don’t know why Nunca triggers the imperfect subjunctive. Maybe this example could be included in the examples in this lesson? Muchas gracias, Shirley.
Hola Inma & Shui,
Just to let you know that the B2 Writing Exercise in the latest Weekend Workout isn't available.
B2 How to make a good homemade wine
Gracias y saludos
i read from another note that
Cuando + the present subjunctive vs Cuando + the present indicative in Spanish
It states that we use cuando+present subjunctive for future events.
But in this notes, it says we need to use cuando+past subjunctive.
Dijo que me llamaría cuando llegara al hotel. (past subjunctive)
= dijo que me llamaría cuando llegue al hotel (present subjunctive)
Are both the same? what is the difference that we choose one over another?
¡ejercicio estupendo! are there any more of those tests/reading/listening exercises?
In my experience, and according to my dictionary, reflection (in a mirror or an observation) is el reflejo, unless it is the action in physics of something bouncing of something else
How do you say "both A and B", especially if A and B are different genders? For example, how do you say "both Jane and Jack are good students"? Thank you.
For example: Nosotros nos reímos siempre con esa película. We always laugh at that movie. I would have never known to use "con." I would have chosen "a."
And, Ustedes se ríen de los niños. You laugh at the children. Again, I would have chosen "a" instead of "de." Why "con" in one sentence and "de" in another?
Will there be lessons on how to choose the correct preposition, or is it a matter of memorising the conjunction with the noun?
Hola,
The last sentence says "Los pájaron volaban sobre nosotras.", shouldn't it be pájaros?
