here it says ¨Nosotros no deberíamos haberlo escuchado.¨ Should it be Nosotros no deberíamos haberle escuchado? Le instead of Lo?
In one of the questions it says headaches.... plural, but the answer is given as singular version of docker??
I'm afraid I have to join the others on this one. This is has got to be the hardest concept I have encountered so far. I'm glad that you mentioned that if you use "nunca" or "siempre" then the verb would be in the simple past. However, that is where my understanding stops. I tried thinking about whether one is recent past (perfecto) and one is more distant but still somewhat recent (indefinido), but that is confusing and probably not correct. Thank you also for stating that this is something that is different across all the different countries. I will just keep trying and hope that something sticks at some point.
No te me pongas chulo.
I found this on
spanishdictionary.com:
No te pongas chulo conmigo; te conozco desde que eras un bebé.Don't get cocky with me; I've known you since you were a little baby.
Muchas gracias, Shirley.
Hola
In relation to "después de que", I have questions:
(1) why "hallase" (instead of "se halla") is used in this sentence:
"...es el final de un camino [...] después de que la Guardia Civil hallase en la 'tablet' de la víctima un enigmático mensaje."
(2) what construction is this? what are the grammar rules?
Muchas gracias.
Is there a specific quiz related to this topic that I can practice? How do I access that?
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?
Hi, I also have a similar doubt. We are using sere in first example ( When I am older, I will be a doctor) i.e simple future but we are using vayan (subjunctive) in this statement: Tendrán mucho frío cuando vayan a Escocia el próximo diciembre.
Why are we using vayan instead of iran (simple future) here like in first example?
Please help thank you!
Could someone please tell me why I was told it's wrong here in this quiz?
Kqiziq (B1): El año pasado visité todas las ciudades de Cataluña ___________ Tarragona (Last year I visited all the cities in Catalonia except for Tarragona).
The options given: menos/sino/pero/aunque/incluso.
I chose «sino», and I was marked wrong. The correct answer was «menos». I, of course, accept «menos», but why is «sino» wrong here??
