On the question:
Mamá, ________
Why wouldn't "cómo está" be a correct answer? Wouldn't it be formal when speaking to a parent?
Thank you!
In the 1st person and 3rd person singular in the given examples I notice that the words from the verb 'to be able to', i.e 'could' and 'couldn't' are used. In sentences like these would we just have to be aware that these words are implied?
Thank you
Clari.
"Me llamo Juan". I am confused because there is no verb. Is it incorrect to say "Me llamo es Juan"? Where else in Spanish are verbs omitted?
Gracias
I don't understand the difference between hubo and habia. They seem to mean the same thing. What is the difference between them and when do you use one as opposed to the other.
My understanding was that the accent falls on the penultimate syllable unless another syllable is accented. Given that where does the accent fall on “peinar”? Is it not split into pe in ar?
Hi,
In the sentence above, the translation of "... comer sano." is given as '... eat healthily'. Doesn't 'sano' mean 'healthy' and 'sanamente' mean healthily?
I'm sorry to be so pedantic, but I like to get things right at the start.
Best regards,
Colin
