Why is the answer to " When she opens her present, she often gets perfume.
Why is the answer "abre" and not " abra"?
Please could you tell me, how would you know which to use here-
‘Yo no he sido’- it wasn’t me
Or
‘Yo no fui’- it wasn’t me
Thank you
Me gusta el vídeo. La narradora habló con mucha claridad. Gracias.
These rules for verb tenses when using por si/por si acaso are really hard to keep straight. Does it sound really awful to a native speaker if we get it wrong?
In the quiz I just took, I was supposed to translate "that famous film". I said "Esa película famosa" and was marked wrong. The answer was "aquella película famosa".
Given that the usage is somewhat subjective, and depends on how close the person feels to the object, shouldn't "esa" also be correct?
Edited to add: looks like I can't delete the question. I just went back to my quiz results, and it looks like there's a hint that I missed, that the speaker was feeling distant from the film. So that explains it.
Hola,
Is Ver "regular" if the accents are missing on the first and third persons singular conjugations?
Regards
John
Sorry-
Forgot to include 'dieron' in the translation, but question remains the same.
