The second page didn't work for me - no ''Play'' button. (Chrome browser, Win 11)
Turn into the passive voice: "La secretaria ha estado ordenando los papeles."
I chose this one: Los papeles han sido ordenados por la secretaria.
but it marked it as wrong.
instead it said the right one was:
Los papeles han estado siendo ordenados por la secretaria.
what construction is being used here?
In the tables, you use tuvierais and tuvieseis. In the examples you use tuviérais and tuviéseis. Is this a typo or is there another reason for changing the inflection?
2________ la reunión ya que han llegado a un acuerdo. The meeting has come to an end because they reached an agreement.(HINT: The meeting is now considered as finished)Han dado por zanjada
A meeting is singular so why not ha instead of han?
Hello! This article is great, and I want to play it for my students, but the Play button isn't working for me. I am signed in when I try. Is there something I am missing?
Thanks!
I think this lesson could be improved by including some information about using ser + para + the due date. I was thrown off by that in one of the quiz questions because even knowing to use "para" for a due date, using "ser para" to say something like "is due by" is not very clear or obvious.
Can "Voy a salir de casa temprano" (correct answer) also be:
"Voy a salir temprano de casa" in order to keep the adverb close to the verb it modifies?
No hay nada sobre de uvas en esta historia, pero me gusto mucho.
In some of these sentences it seems that para would work just as well, for example, in the following: Por [eso/aquello de] no tener que pelar las gambas con las manos decidió pedir mejor calamares fritos.
So that he wouldn't have to peel the prawns with his hands he decided to order fried calamari.Why can’t I use para?
Can you please speed up and make the replay of these writing exercises with more natural and less stilted voice? The accent is great but the replay sound unnaturally slow.
