I guessed this correctly but when I clicked on the explanation of past participle examples in Spanish it did not explain why it is escrita?
Can someone please explain?
I saw this in an article on the BBC about direct and indirect object pronouns.
Escuchamos al cantante.
Le escuchamos.
Is that corrrct? I don’t get why we'd use the indirect object pronoun here. What is the direct object in this case?
I have a question about constructions like this: "Omar y Cristina son nuestros panaderos," e.g. "Omar and Cristina are our bakers." I understand it is "nuestros" because it is the nosotros form of the possessive adjective. However, I'm confused about the gender. Why is it masculine here?
Why is QUERER in the subjunctive in the following sentence? El hecho de que yo
select ...quisequeraquieraquisieraquiera ir al concierto contigo no nos hace pareja.Buenas días
I understand Afectar is a transitive verb, which requires a direct object (without a preposition).
I saw these sentences:
La nueva ley no afecta al pequeño empresario.
La falta de oxígeno afecta al cerebro.
I'm curious to know why these two sentences use a preposition "a".
Muchas gracias
La vida con Roberto probablemente se volvería muy aburrida, muy rápidamente, mientras que la vida con el bohemio sería un perpetuo juego de adivinanzas. Ella debería seguir buscando.
en el text dice que Paraguay tiene comidas tipicas. que es eso comidas?
In regard to "In Spain, there is a large family of potters" has the hint: "put "large" in front of "family", potter = alfarero/a".
The first hint seems a little misleading. Shouldn't we use "familia grande" and not "gran familia" if we are translating large family since it describes the size of the family rather than the quality/inherent characteristic of greatness of the family?
In the kwiz, there was a phrase to complete: "Me vi tentada ..." I had selected tentado instead of tentada, which was marked wrong. The thing was that there was no indication, neither in the sentence itself or in the instructions, that the speaker was female. Why then would "Me vi tentado..." be incorrect?
¿En qué año se fundó Paraguay? ¿Y quién lo fundó?
