Learning Spanish language

Opacar=outshine ...

And "sacudir la polilla" (lit. "shake off the moths") means to dance...

Thus, it'd be something like this:

The difference between her and I is that when I dance I'm going to outshine her. Yes, I am going to outshine her with all the moths that I'll shake off with my first turn*.....

*meaning he reckons he's going to impress everyone from the moment he gets on the dance floor

-"reguero" is trail, it lit. says "with the trail of moths I'll cause"

tnx all for explaning por and para=)

now i have another question: minas and mio meanes the same?
and what is correct: "te gustaria"? or "te gusta"? when we use gustaria?

Hi Both are correct:

"Te gusta"=you like (it/him/her)
"Te gustaría"=you would like (it/him/her)

And they are used exactly like in english:

-¿Te gusta nadar?=do you like swimming?
-¿Te gusta la playa?=do you like the beach?
-¿Te gustaría ir al cine?=would you like to go to the cinema?
-¡Te gusta levantarte tarde!=You like getting up late!
-Ese libro te gustaría=You would like that book.



Concerning your other question... do you mean "mias" and "mio"?
If so, both mean "mine". Mias is used for female plural nouns and mio for male singular ones:

-El libro es mio=The book is mine.
-Esas llaves son mias=Those keys are mine.

yeah I know what it means... and I love it... was given by a friend in Egypt!! I heard it too.. that Cairo and Mexico City are alike... a girl friend living in there tolds me....

So you are also from Cairo... yeiii coz I want to learn the egyptian accent, mostly of my friends are egyptians!!

.................................................. ..............

Bendigo mi suerte= I bless my fate/luck ...

Im not used to the saying... but I guess its means he/she is very lucky to have a girl/boy or something in his/her life


sorry I dont have the lyrics... if you want me to help you... if you have the song, please upload it here www.zhare.net send me the link and I can write you the lyrics

what is correct: soñamos or sueñamos

and could someone please explain me reflexive pronouns,direct object pronouns, indirect object pronouns and when we use mi and when mí
and what is correct os gusta or les gusta (for vosotros)?
how we use gustaria for all persons?
tnx

1. Soñamos is the right one

2. Mi=my (eg. my car=mi coche, my friend=mi amigo(a), etc.) and mí=me (after prepositions, eg. is this for me?=¿es (esto) para mí?)

3. Gustaría:

Yo- Me gustaría ir al cine
Tu- ¿Te gustaría ir al cine?
Él/ella/usted- Le gustaría ir al cine
Nosotros- Nos gustaría ir al cine
Ustedes- ¿Les gustaría ir al cine?*
Vosotros- ¿Os gustaría ir al cine?**
Ellos/ellas- Les gustaría ir al cine

Important: you never say/write "yo me gustaría...." ie the personal pronoun is always left out. If you want to stress the idea then you can say "a mi me gustaría..."

**used in Spain
*used in Mexico & other Latin American countries (if u need more info on this just have a look here: http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/sp...tml#post476203 )

citalli muchas gracias=D you helped me a lot...

so in this site conictional for gustar is wrong http://www.123teachme.com/spanish_ve...ugation/gustar

Hi there!

I had a look at the link & no, it's not wrong. What happens is that the most common way u'll find this verb is like it says in their note at the beginning (Me gusta nadar; me gusta el fútbol, etc.)

However it can be the case that u read (or u need to say) for instance "she likes me"... which in spanish is "(yo) le gusto (a ella)".

I think we also discussed this around here... I'll find the posts for you

I found it!! It's actually an exercise with different sentences that Joyce (Urbaniak) posted here...

Hopefully it'll help u to get a better feeling for the verb "gustar":

H! , I missed u my teachers

Since I'm seeing the native Spanish speakers r on ...

I'll ask :::

*Is there diffrence between Spanish from Spain and Spanish from Catalonia ???


*Is this text from Spain or from Catalonia -specially- ??

Según medios italianos, varios observadores han estado siguiendo las evoluciones de Douglas en la competición. Además de azulgranas y blancos, el brasileño, un mediapunta de corte muy técnico y que destaca por su capacidad de desborde, también figura en la agenda de la Juventus y el Manchester United.

Douglas juega en el Gremio, tiene una cláusula de rescisión de 26 millones de euros y, según su agente, todavía no ha negociado ni contactado con nadie.

"No hemos hablado con ningún equipo, sólo sabemos que diversos ojeadores lo han estado siguiendo, pero de momento no hay nada oficial", manifestó César Bottega, representante de Douglas, en declaraciones a la web 'calciomercato.it'.

I don't know if there are some difference... But I don't see nothing that isn't spanish there... It's just a very good spanish, more professional and more rich than the normal one we talk normaly.

Why you ask it exactly ?
