Could you explain 'dime' for me please. Would this be classed as an Imperative? I'm thinking especially of sentences like, 'Dime algo'
Gracias
Clara
Note that the construction tal vez (maybe) accepts the indicative and the subjunctive moods with no change in meaning.
What do you mean with the "maybe" after tal vez?
One of the questions in this section was:
Mi prima ________ Miss Universo. .My cousin was Miss UniverseHINT: Conjugate "ser" in Pretérito indefinido
I got this correct (fue), because of the section it is in, but would it not be better to use the imperfect for this example? Mi prima era Miss Universo. There is no time frame involved, outside of being in the past. Does it really matter? Just wondering. Thank you.
The question does not enquire about the existence of a florist but the location. Therefore according to the lesson explanation the answer should be “Donde está”. Please point me to the part of the lesson I have not understood.
"we were studing at the university of Salamanca during the 90'
While translating the verb study in spanish , I think we will use preterite indefinido (pretertio perfecto simple) because of time frame (during the 90) instead of preterite imperfecto.
Please guide me on this.
Proteger becomes protejo in first person present tense. Can’t you pretty much always dro the o and have the stem for the present subjunctive? For me, it is easier to remember.
Quiz question: Ojalá ________ menos egoísmo en el mundo. ?
I wish there were less selfishness in the world.
(HINT: Use "haber" in El Imperfecto de Subjuntivo)
In the above I answered “qué hubiera” and got it wrong, where the correct answer was “hubiera.”
However, in a separate section, there was an explanation that “qué can be added after ojalá without changing the meaning.”
Can you clarify whether my “qué hubiera” answer should have been correct?
