Why is vamos a la biblioteca correct, and vamos a Cordoba is not? {The correction says I should say vamos IR A Cordoba.
These are words are relative pronouns, but can they ever be used in a question as an interrogative pronoun? I assume that function is reserved for Cuál and Cuáles without el-lo-la-las.
Next, could "cuáles" be used in this quiz sentence: Voy a preguntar a la dependienta ________ lavadoras son más eficientes. trying to ask: which ones of these washing machines are more efficient?
Hi Inma,
The translation is given as “every journey has become a thrilling (?) adventure.” If convertirse (en) is the verb of choice here for “become”, would it have been better to give a different translation perhaps “every journey has turned into a thrilling adventure.”
It strikes me that “convertirse en” just doesn’t fit with your lesson where you say that it is used to describe “A radical change in personality or profession,” and is interchangeable with “hacerse” in that regard. Hence a different translation would have steered me towards either “convertirse en” or “volverse” [which is what I chose]. That said, your lessons on this topic deal with people becoming a certain way, rather than situations changing. Perhaps the guidance for the former cannot be carried through to the latter. Can you clarify this in any way? Saludos. John
Rafa, el muy egoísta ... : Rafa, [being] such an idiot ....
Shouldn't the translation be "Rafa, [being] such an egotist"...? Or perhaps ""Rafa, the egotistical jerk"
This is a general comment. I have been enjoying going through these to challenge my listening. However, it would be really helpful if you also showed the English translations of these.
Wouldn´t some other options for "appetizer" include: entrante, aperitivo, entrada?
For "main course": plato principal, plato fuerte
for "some": algunos/algunas as in "algunas buenas verduras"
With body parts the possessive pronoun often is not used. E.g me duele el cuerpo. My body hurts. Why not in this text?
¡Quién lo diría que de un tratado de contabilidad podría salir tanto vocabulario nuevo!
Un gran trabajo, ¡bien hecho!
¿Ha oído o visto usted "Use your spanish", "why not spanish" y "SpanishLand school" en YouTube? Todos esos YouTubers son de Colombia y ellos hablan español bellamente como música legato. Para mi, hablar español con acento no significa la voz profesional regional, sólo la voz regional.
