Is it safe to think that:
Haber tenido = sustantivo
Habiendo tenido = adverbio
Habiendo tenido ese accidente, depende de su pareja.
Haber tenido ese accidente lo hizo dependiente de su pareja.
In the same way that galesa in the first example is equivalent to "Welsh," perhaps Esta torera es cordobesa is more equivalent to "This bullfighter (female) is Cordoban."
For anyone struggling with how and when to use Sentir and Sentirse, just read both Silvia's and Inma's replies to Garry's question. It took me a good while to use the correct verb too.
The explanations given here by Silvia and Inma are invaluable and so comprehensive.
We are so lucky to have such a great team of teachers!
Lo que dice Eva H. sobre mezclar frutas es muy cierto. Las posibilidades son ilimitadas, como el universo. Pero, todas las frutas tienen diferentes niveles de digestibilidad y mezclar una fruta ácida con una alcalina puede causar indigestión, dolorosa o no. Creo que la gente inculta ha asumido que como la "fruta" se considera ser "sana", al combinar muchas frutas los resultados serán "más sanos". Sin embargo, una macedonia de frutas suele ser la causa de un dolor de barriga y, por supuesto, que las zanahorias y las espinacas sean "saludables" también, no significa que su adición a un zumo de frutas lo mejore.
¡Por las posibilidades ilimitadas del Universo!
Hello!
I was very dedicated and enthusiastic about learning Spanish until I hit a wall at A2. I still listen to my favorite Spanish songs and recite some of the basic verbs and their conjugations but it's definitely been several months since I even logged in to Kwiziq so it feels like I'm starting all over again. Any suggestions on how and where to start again?
Thank you,
Allysen

"Mi amiga Lucía estaba perdida en un desértico" Can we use perderse here and say " Mi amiga Lucía se perdía en un desértico" ?

For example,
"It bothers us that you never studied Spanish", or
"I'm so happy that your boyfriend went to Harvard".
"I wish we had met sooner"
Would we use the imperfect subjunctive?
Thanks.
Hello,
Just to note that in one of the examples above, the English translation is not correct:
Él no te habría querido tanto como yo.He would not have loved you as much as me.While some (many!) English-speakers may say this (incorrectly), the actual meaning of what they are saying is: "He would not have loved you as much as (he loved/s) me."
The correct translation of the Spanish sentence would be:
"He would not have loved you as much as I do/did."
The topic is the Mosque-Cathedral in Córdoba
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la que fue la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.
Could I say:
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.
Gracias
