HI- It might be helpful to also clarify that you don't use a possessive when speaking of part of your body. For example: as shown above, "My leg hurts" would be translated as "THE leg hurts me" "Me duele LA pierna" ,

NOT as we would more commonly say in English, "My leg hurts me" "Me duele MI pierna".

Weird translation of proponer un brindis"Nos gustaría proponer un brindis" means:We don't want to make a toast.We wanted to make a toast.We like making a toast.We would like to make a toast.

We wouldn't say "We would like to make a toast". Best English would be direct translation: "We would like to propose a toast"

We might say: "Let's make a toast" but "we would like to make a toast" is not natural English.

perfect tense and imperfect tense

there are 2 separate lesson on this verb poder with the meaning of could, able to do something or not.

May I check if my understanding is correct?

Perfect tense and indefinido both means not being able to something, did not manage to do it, and we saw the result which is able or not able to. They have the same meaning but just that different time period will trigger each of them separately.

Whereas, imperfect tense is about the action not able or being able to do at a specific time but we did not know the ending.

Hope someone could help clarify.

Thanks

Difference between the tenses

Would another way of explaining the difference be to say that in English you could get the meaning of the imperfect by saying "The teacher [was] opened[ing] the door" and the indefinido as "The teacher [had] opened the door"

De versus sobre

I don't understand how to determine when to use "de" versus "sobre" for the word "about". Las chicas están hablando de mí >> about --> de

Yo soy honesto. No puedo decir lo mismo sobre ti. >> about -->sobre

Thank you.
