In the Kwiz at the bottom, "usteden" is used. What is this form? I have heard of vosotros for "you all", or "ustedes" for "you" when speaking to a group. But "usteden" is new to me. Can you clarify?
Si viniérais, os ________ una paella riquísima. If you guys came, we would make a delicious paella for you.HINT: Using the "nosotros" form, conjugate "hacer" in El Condicional Simple
Because the first clause is in the past, wouldn't the second be in the contitional perfect?
Si viniérais, os habríamos hecho una paella?
En este frase, no entiendo por que es "Si usted hubiera venido antes, yo le atendería" y no "Si usted hubiera venido antes, yo le habria atendido". No entiendo por que la tradución en ingles es I would have served you y no I would serve you.... Help!
In the example La pájaro vuela sobre tu cabeza, why is it "tu" cabeza. I thought when talking about body parts and clothing we should use the definite articles rather than the possessive adjectives.
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.
I am curious of the "la he" / "las he" used in a few examples. In what lesson is that discussed? Thank you.
This lesson says:
"In Spanish, to express that someone "would have [done something]" in the past, we use the auxiliary verb haber.
Haber [ìn the conditional simple] + participle of main verb"
However wouldn't you use the perfect conditional to say "would have"?
Hola,
El título de este ejercicio indica que el nombre del rey mago es "Melchior" pero el texto usa una ortografía diferente de "Melchor."
¿Hay una diferencia?
Saludos

I got this incorrect: Translate: It is ten to nine. My answer: Son las diez meno nueve. Correct Answer: Son las nueve diez. Isn't that 9:10, rather than what the question is asking
