Question

Do these mean the same thing?
I do my work on a laptop at school.

Yo hago mi trabajo en un ordenador portátil en la escuela.

Answer 1

you might want to double check but i think laptop is just laptop in spanish. also, im assuming that by work you mean homework. if so, i would write

Yo hago mi tarea en una laptop en mi escuela.

also double check on the gender of laptop

Answer 2

The laptop has a gender? o_o

Answer 3

every object has a gender in spanish
for example: el carro , la ventana, la cilla, el tambor etc.
el-him
la-her

Answer 4

So, would it be Yo hago mi tarea en un laptop en mi escuela instead of una laptop?

depending on the gender
if girl (or la) then leave it as una
if boy (or el) then chacnge it as un

i think its una though
