Re les vs los below.. les is incorrect because ver is a transitive verb, correct?
Why is “I feel like an idiot dressed up like a clown” reflexive? Idiot is a noun. I had this question on a quiz.
It seems like it would be helpful if; when there is a statement and a response, that there would be two different speakers. This would give a conversational quality to the example.
This word seems to change all the time! I had the wrong answer so next time it came up in a question I put the answer it gave me last time and it said wrong and gave the answer as the one I chose in the first place! This has happened several times. How and why does this word change?
Hola,
Would the sentence above still make sense in Spanish if it were reordered thus:
El otro día mi abuela me llamó tres veces.
Saludos,
Colin
Sentence: “Ella dijo que habían problemas en el trabajo.”
Why is “habían” used and not “había”?
Is it because “problemas” is plural?
I am confused about the translation for a section of this exercise. That section is: "I like King Baltazar". For this, I wrote "A mí me gusta al Rey Baltasar", but the corrected answer/translation was presented as "A mí me gusta el rey Baltasar". I thought the preposition "a" needed to be inserted after use of gusta if the reference was to a person (in this case "rey Baltasar" --- lower case in "rey" notwithstanding). Apparently, I am wrong. Could you please explain why "el" and not "al" was correct?
Pati Ecuamiga
Why is estaba used in the sentence-
Después del baño, estaba muy calmado y feliz.
Why not era. Is it because describing feeling in the past?
I read that the Spanish translation for "Where is the party?" is "¿Dónde es el fiesta?"
I'm curious. Is the sentence "¿Dónde está la fiesta?" incorrect? If so, why?
¡Gracias!
The English similarity although we don't use it anymore, they are growing up on us without us realizing or she is not eating on me and I am worried.
