Question

Help me complete this sentence. A ellas (les/le) gusta escribir correos electronicos.

Answer 1

The sentence starts with "a ellas."

"Ellas" is the direct object of this sentence.
And it's plural.
So we have to use "les."

"Le" is for singular direct objects.

Answer 2

Thank you that makes sense

Answer 3

Yeah, de nada.

Answer 4

A mi (te/me) gusta pasar un rato con los amigos.

Answer 5

This is the same kind of problem.

The sentence starts with "a mi."

What do you think?

Answer 6

I don't even know what it says. well you translate for me please.

Answer 7

Look, I'll show it how it works:


A mi -- me gusta

A ti -- te gusta

A el -- le gusta
A ella -- le gusta
A usted -- le gusta

A nosotros -- nos gusta

A ellos -- les gusta
A ellas -- les gusta
A ustedes -- les gusta


Just take a look. It's really easy.

Sometimes we say "gustan" instead of "gusta."
This happens only when the thing that we like is plural.

Example -- I like the apples.
"Me GUSTAN las manzanas."

"Apples" is plural.

Answer 8

"A mi me gusta pasar el rato con amigos."

"I like to pass the time with friends."

Or...."I like to spend time with friends."

Answer 9

"A mi me gusta" means ...."I like."

Answer 10

"pasar el rato con amigos" means..."to pass the time with friends."

Answer 11

Ok I see. You make things simple. What if I have to complete a sentence. A mis amigas no ________________ comer papas fritas.

Answer 12

Okay.

So "amigas" is plural.
It ends with an S.

It's pretty much the same as saying....."a ellas."

"Ellas" is used when we're talking about more than one girl.

"Amigas" is a group of friends, who are girls.

So....
a ellas -- les gusta

Answer 13

You know that chart I showed you?


A mi -- me gusta

A ti -- te gusta

A el -- le gusta
A ella -- le gusta
A usted -- le gusta

A nosotros -- nos gusta

A ellos -- les gusta
A ellas -- les gusta
A ustedes -- les gusta


It would help, if you knew what all those words mean.

Like...."mi" means "me."

And...."ti" means "you."



mi -- me

ti -- you

el -- he

ella -- she

usted -- you (formal/singular)

nosotros -- we

ellos -- they

ellas -- they (when there are only girls)

ustedes -- you (formal/plural)

Answer 14

I know this is a lot of information to take in, all at once.

When we learn a new language for the first time, there's a lot of memorization to be done.

Just take your time.
And if you have questions about this stuff, you can ask.

Answer 15

A mis amigas no les gusta comer papas fritas.

Answer 16

Yeah that's right.

Answer 17

It means "my friends don't like to eat fried potatoes."

A mis amigas -- my friends
no les gusta -- do not like
comer papas fritas -- to eat fried potatoes.

"Fried potatoes" are french fries.
It's what spanish-speakers call them.
"Fried potatoes."

Answer 18

Ok im going to try one on my own. one second.

Answer 19

Cool. You wanna let me check when you're done?

Answer 20

Answer 23

Answer 25

Answer 26
