Which phrase correctly completes this sentence? Me gustan los tamales, porque son ________________ los tacos. A. menos deliciosos que B. más deliciosos que C. los más delicioso D. los mejores de

Timmyspu:

Which one do you know is a wrong answer?

Eiwoh2:

Hi there! All right, so first off, is there any part of this sentence that you do understand?

Maleeyahunter2004:

Yeah the main sentence is: I like tamales, because it's______ the tacos.

Eiwoh2:

Hmm...well, that's a great try. :) There's only one word that's wrong, and that would be "it's". I'll help you with that one real quickly. "Son" in this case means "They're." Thus, the sentence would be "I like tamales, because they're ____ tacos"

Eiwoh2:

With that out of the way, how about the answer choices? Any that you feel matches with this statement?

Maleeyahunter2004:

I mean I think it's C just letting you know I stink at Spanish so please be patient with me

Eiwoh2:

No worries! I'm a patient person, and am a fluent speaker, so I can guide you through, no problem. :)

Eiwoh2:

Let's see C is "los más delicioso" Do you know what that translates to?

Timmyspu:

If you do not you can always use google translate.

Eiwoh2:

Worth to note that Google Translate isn't always 100% reliable when it comes to language, though.

Maleeyahunter2004:

The most Delicious that's what C means

Eiwoh2:

Right. Now fit that term with the sentence. "I like tamales, because they're the most delicious tacos." This would be a sentence if tamales were a form of tacos; which they aren't. Thus, let's try again. Examine the other choices. What other can make sense? :)

Timmyspu:

You can use a Spanish dictionary as well

Maleeyahunter2004:

Then D

Eiwoh2:

And what does that choice translate to? :)

Maleeyahunter2004:

It's not D cause that translates to The Best in

Eiwoh2:

"The best of" tacos, yes. But you're right on it being incorrect; this would just again refer to tamales as tacos haha So there's two choices left. Think about each one. Which is the one that makes sense with this sentence? Remember, it's comparing tamales to tacos.

Maleeyahunter2004:

Then It has to be B because más deliciosos que means More delicious than

Eiwoh2:

There you go! That is correct. :) "I like tamales, because they're more delicious than tacos." is the full sentence. When in doubt, always check out what the question is doing! In this case, it's comparing. :)
