Very good contribution , is ONLY for the Advanced students?
Note the use of La or El varies from country to country and the education levels, La Calor is very common in the countryside.
Is like in English "you's people " is used in the farms.
Thanks Rich One. I have to print that out and put it into my grammar book.
And it gives me an opening to ask a question that's been on my mind. In the streets I often hear what sounds to me like "pollo". But I am quite certain that people don't talk about chicken as often as I hear "pollo". Is it possible that I am hearing "por yo"? I don't hear an "r". But maybe a final "r" gets little if any emphasis?
And, in the same vein, I am sure I heard one day "no se seguro" and I thought, oh yeah, "I don't know for sure". Could that be right? Is that how someone here might say "I don't know for sure"?
Thanks, Bob
- Estoy cansado, I am tired. Soy cansado, I am a tired person.
- Estoy feliz, I'm happy now. Soy feliz, I am happy by nature.
- Está callada, she's being quiet. Es callada, she's introverted.
- No estoy listo, I'm not ready. No soy listo, I'm not a quick thinker.
