Hola los expertos y todos
Alguien sabe porque la frase es escrita 'Los personajes andan soñando con un viaje a una isla desierta' y no es escrita 'Los personajes andan soñando de un viaje a una isla desierta'?
No he visto esa construcción antes y pues estoy una poca confundida. Si es normal, podrían dar otros ejemplos que usan la misma 'con' construcción
OK. I get it...I think! It is because the first clause expresses "emotion". Therefore it seems to be more a function of formality, a rule, not a matter of doubt. Because, I could be in fact happy that you travelled the world. Right? Or, is there another way to convey that "I am pleased that..." as fact and not use the subjunctive?
I appologize if I appear to be running in circles, and chasing my tail! I greatly appreciate your imput!
"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
Hola,
I had never come across ‘hacer caso’ until now. From now on, whilst practising speaking Spanish to/with my daughter I’ll use this. It will be very useful since she never ‘pays attention’ and ignores me a lot whilst spending numerous hours on Instagram etc. :)
Another phrase that I’m unfamiliar with is ‘dares cuenta’ which is used in this reader- ...me doy cuenta... Am I correct in saying that ‘hacer caso’ and ‘darse cuenta’ are phrasal verbs? Do you cover phrasal verbs anywhere in Kwiziq?
Gracias y saludos
The answer to ‘they were about to finish their exam’ is given as ‘Han estado a punto de...’
there’s no sense that this is the situation of ‘but something intervened’, and it doesn’t feel like a natural ‘perfecto’ tense to me, more just an action in the past. So I’m wondering why the perfecto was chosen here?
Once again, if there is more than one answer, would you please indicate that.
It is very annoying to know the answer(s) but not being informed that more than one my be selected.
Thank you,
Sherri
I'm new to this Spanish learning service and there's so about this that I really like - however - this is very very Europe focused. So much so that it blows my mind. I recognize that any Spanish learning is a good thing but it does add to my already considerable frustration with learning Spanish that I'm learning things that seem useless to me at this point. SO - is there a mod that can be activated to make this service more Latin America facing? AND shouldn't there be some up front notification that this is a program that is rooted in Spanish from Spain - which isn't what everyone wants.
