1. I find it difficult to think in terms of the Imperfect subjunctive in examples which allude to an event in the future, e.g. "Ojalá nosotros viniésemos el año que viene"... Could we also say "Ojalá nosotros vengamos el año que viene"?
2. [A comment rather than a question]: I personally prefer the "-s-" option for constructing the Imperfect Subjunctive because there is less chance of confusing it with a future construction.
Can I use tener ganas with past and future tenses?
Nosotras fuimos responsables de ese proyecto.
We were responsible for this project.
Shouldn't this be "este proyecto?"
If I'm correct, it appears from the quiz that "aquel" and the equivalent "todo aquel que" forms have identical meanings. Would it be worth adding a note in the lesson to clarify that "todo aquel que" is simply another alternative?
please, help to understand why when I am using formal question
tiene un boligrafo is correct but
tiene usted un boligrafo marked as incorrect
· I know her: Le conozco / La conozco
There is a lot of discussion on the internet about whether “him” and “her” are direct objects of conocer that should use lo and la.
Hola,
The question was ¿Vas _casa de Inéz? Both "para" and "a" were given as correct answers but in the lesson above, the use of "a" is given as also acceptable when associated with the verb "Llevar." I would have used "a" instinctively when talking about a destination but was put off using this because of the instruction.
I think there is something about "destination" that I am not understanding. Can you help?
Saludos
John
I shared this example with my Spanish teacher, as I have never heard the conditional used in this way. She said that this form is not commonly used in Mexico. Is it more specific to Spain and/or other countries?
