¿Maquillarse en cara negra es muy racista en los EEUU? ¿Cómo se comparte información con estudiantes negras sin hacerles daño?
Hola!
I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around the purpose of doubling down on the indirect object usage in some of these examples:
"Ella le envió un regalo a Miguel.
She sent a present to Miguel."
In this example, why do you need the le if you already have Miguel. It reads to me literally as "she him sent a present to Miguel" and I suppose it feels like excessive and unnecessary additional language in an already clear sentence. Is it for emphasis? Por favor ayúdame a entender.
Daba escalafríos andar por el pasillo. Is there no need for "me" or "nos" or are they optional? "Me daba escalafríos"?
what is the infinitive of mommia
How do I say I like someone, rather than I fancy someone? Or indeed that I don't like someone! For example, I like him but I don't fancy him.
en el text dice que Paraguay tiene comidas tipicas. que es eso comidas?
For example, would this be correct?
I cleaned the room, so he would be happy.
Limpié la habitacion, así que él se sintiera feliz
Could así que and para que both be used in this context?
Just want to clarify:
We say “a las cuatro de la tarde”.
Are there any other prepositions that we use with specific times?
Hola
In a lesson, the question asked about the Canary Islands. Since the islands will always be in the ocean, I answered "son' instead of "estan" and it was wrong.
