Help with a Spanish essay @One098 and @gelidium In this essay you will describe where you WENT (past tense) in your town: 1/ to buy bread (I went to the bakery and I bought -COMPRAR in the Preterit- bread) 2/ to buy pastries 3/ to buy meat 4/ to exercise (you DO exercise in spanish) 5/ to withdraw money (same verb as take out). 6/ Then you will use one IR verb, 7/ one AR verb, and 8/ one ER verb to tell me what you DID afterwards. (Part one more instructions to come)
* Use Primero, Despues, Luego, Entonces, Tambien, & Por fin to link one sentence to the previous. **As long as you use each place and activity, they can be in a different order *** Those who use a Reflexive verb (on the AR or IR verbs) correctly get extra point. (Part two) Thanks guys I know you are not online right now (Friday) but I just wanted to go ahead and post it now for whenever you guys head online.
Okay, so have you even started it off?
Yeah yesterday morning: En primer lugar, fui a la panadería y comprar pan.
@One098
*compre
Im going to write out the rest and let me know if its any good.
@One098
Okay, sorry for the late reply, I haven't had the chance to stay on. But yes, write it and I will check it.
En primer lugar, fui a la panadería y comprar pan. Entonces, me fui a la pastelería y repostería compró. Luego, fui al mercado de la carne para comprar carne y también fui a un centro de ocio para el ejercicio. Por último, fui a sacar dinero del banco después de hacer ejercicio. Thats what I have so far Im not sure what to put for 6, 7 and 8 though. D: @One098
No worries, I got you! So this is what I would make it: En primer lugar, fui a la panaderia y compre pan. Entonces, me fui a la pasteleria y reposteria y compre un dulce y una barra de pan. Luego, fui al mercado y compre carne y tambien fui a un centro de ocio para el ejercicio. Por ultimo, fui a sacar dinero del banco. 6/ Entonces, ya por la noche, pense en salir con unos amigos. 7/ Les dijo a mis amigos que tienen que llegar quince minutos antes de las siete. 8/ Despues tuve que beber una pastilla por el dolor de cabeza que tenia. Only thing I could come up for, for number 8.
Alright thank you @One098
Oh, you're most welcome anytime!
Hey @One098 real quick question.
..yeah?
For number 8 could we do the headache thing but with going to sleep instead of taking the pill or would that not work for 8?
Sure..
Whatever you want.
It won't work tho cause it has to be a ER verb :/ @One098
Okay, wait explain to me again what you want to do?! Sorry, I'm kinda zoned out.
First of all, i went to the bakery to buy bread. Then, i went to the bakery and pastry shop to buy a chocolate bar and a loaf of bread. Then, i went to the market to buy meat and also i went to a recreational center for exercise. Finally, I went to get money out of the bank. Then, in the evening, I thought of going out with some friends. I told my friends that have yet to arrive fifteen minutes before. After I eat food and went to bed. I was trying to add a different ER verb to 8.
@One098
Okay, so.. What do you want to add for 8?
En primer lugar, fui a la panadería a comprar el pan. Entonces, me fui a la panadería y pastelería para comprar una barra de chocolate y una barra de pan. Entonces, fui al mercado a comprar carne y también fui a un centro recreativo para el ejercicio. Finalmente, fui a sacar dinero del banco. Luego, por la noche, pensé en salir con unos amigos. Le dije a mis amigos que tienen que llegar quince minutos antes. Después de que me coma la comida y me fui a la cama. It just has to be an ER verb and it has to say what I did after I was trying to say eat and go to bed.
Okay, um, what about "Despues de comer, me fui acostar a dormir." ?
Yeah that sounds good thanks so much! @One098 :D
c: anytime!
lol one more thing isn't that going back to afternoon tho because on 7 we mentioned evening so it wouldn't make sense. @One098
Well if you're talking about 7pm which would be the normal time to go out with friends to a restaurant, you can go to bed after you're done there, however it wouldn't be written like it is..
En primer lugar, fui a la panadería a comprar el pan. Entonces, me fui a la panadería y pastelería para comprar una barra de chocolate y una barra de pan. Entonces, fui al mercado a comprar carne y también fui a un centro recreativo para ejercicio. Finalmente, fui a sacar dinero del banco. Luego, por la noche, pensé en salir con unos amigos. Le dije a mis amigos que tienen que llegar quince minutos antes. Después de comer, me fui acostar a dormir. Gotcha this should be final version.
Yes, that's what I would do!
Yay thanks :D
You're welcome!
