It's been a long time, but I might be able to remember enough to help if I could figure out what it is you're supposed to be doing here.

i suppose; plus, whenever i used to have spanish speaking people do my homework it was totally obvious, because they are so many subtle differences

Two years ago, that would have been so easy for me. We had the preterit form of hacer drilled into our heads. But, alas, it's gone now.

I'm pretty sure I could do this assignment but I'm feeling lazy.

preterit is a regular conjugation of hacer and then changing the verb (ex: visitar) to the visite, visitaste, etc, form right?

Fair enough, but I'm a quarter Irish, so you'll still probably get cut by the broken bottle I come at you with in a drunken rage.

What's that word spanish people call americans....

SkaBum14
09/28/05, 01:35 PM
gringos?

Andy
09/28/05, 01:37 PM
Yes! Gringo!

SkaBum14
09/28/05, 01:38 PM
Haha, we got called gringos a bunch when I was in Ecuador for a January-term class senior year, so we started calling them "mexicanos" whenever we'd get called a gringo.

The Korean kid with us had it the worst, though. They'd just openly point and laugh at him.

go here: http://www.freetranslations.com

and translate the sentence, and then copy the conjugated word you need to put in.

that's how i check all my spanish homework to be sure i've got the correct person/gender/blah blah blah.
