Question

Please let me know if I have written this sentence correctly in Spanish.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Perfecto hide, como ves, tanto practicar al final da fruto

• 'practicar' 'da fruto' that sounds like something for the Phrasebook. I think I'm getting obsessed with it. - margaretbl Apr 16, 2010

Answer 3

It's strange but I always want to use the other version (estuviera) and so when I hear/see this I always have a mental 'oh yeah' moment...

• Don't worry . Estuviera is correct too . - Bunbury Apr 16, 2010
• But I just have a strange feeling when I hear it, I always have to remind myself, to me somehow it sounds like there is a 'you' in there.... sigh - margaretbl Apr 16, 2010
