Hi, I've just come across a use of estar + hecho that I didn't know before:
Tu hermano está hecho un hombretón.
That doesn't seem to be quite the same as the usage here, and I cannot find any reference to this kind of estar + hecho elsewhere on kwiziq...
Is there a rule for determining the Spanish ending for someone that does a profession? For example, a climber is escalador, and a traveler is viajero. Why is one ending in -or and the other -ero?
I just saw it in the forum and I think it should be added to the lesson since it is quite common.
It might be helpful to point out how an infinitive is used to express what in English a gerund might be used for (Sorry, I know that's a horrible sentence.) To reference the quiz question, "conducir" is used for the concept "driving." As an English speaker, that is strange and it was not apparent right away what was going on.
menos ustedes is correct. menos Uds is wrong. Why?
¡Me gusta que nos muestre las dos formas de las frases, gracias! ;)
My bad, it just wasn’t clear. Would help is the form structure in the first part would read something like: Haber (past) + estado + present participle
Okay. I'm really confused. How did I get half of these questions wrong. I know Spanish. But yet, I got some of these questions wrong.
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 😊
