In the test question about Pideselas.. The aswers the computer listed were:
1. Order them for them
2. Order them for her
3. Order them for him.

Hola,
Ahora mismo tengo muchas ganas de comerme un helado de chocolate.
Is there something to be inferred about the addition of me to the end of comer? As in some extra desire, or is this just another way of saying the same thing with no subtlety of difference?
Gracias,
When you say that we use "por culpa de" for something with a negative result and use the example as given above " por culpa de mi novio soy la mujer más feliz del mundo........" Why do you say that this sentence has a negative result?
I think I can understand why "... se puede ver a las ballenas jorobadas retozando, coqueteando ..." is correct - [meaning: "... one can see the humpback whales ...", or "... you can see ..."] - after reading your Kwiziq lessons " Using se debe/se puede to say You must/you can (impersonal sentences) " [number 6933] and " Expressing instructions and general statements in Spanish with the impersonal se = one " [number 5132].
However - under 'Your Practice', you recommend the lesson " Forming the Spanish passive with se (la pasiva refleja) " [number 6089] - which seems more consistent with this answer: "... se pueden ver las ballenas jorobadas"? (i.e. with 'pueden' in the plural, and without the "a" [before the 'las']). Would this^ be a correct way of saying "... the humpback whales can be seen ..."?
Thank you Inma,
So does that mean that even if "siglo" is singular, you can also use the plural? i.e. "a comienzos de..."
does that mean then that you can use the singular "al comienzo de.." if "siglos" was plural?
Do you have any example sentences for these 2 uses?
Do you have any more info on this use? also is this a Peninsular Spain usage? or universally used?
Thank you. Your replies a very appreciated! Nicole
