Answer 1

Cuando está hambriento la perspectiva de comer una hamburguesa rica puede llenar un estómago vacío con júbilo.

When hungry the perspective of consuming a yummy hamburger can fill an empty stomach with joy.

That one can for sure fill a tummy. :) - ian-hill, Nov 3, 2013

Obviously, I'm hungry. Hola Ian. :) - Naya_Dask, Nov 3, 2013

It seems a little short of bacon, but otherwise, just awesome. I just had a burger called the Frida Kahlo and a new restaurant. Burger, Cheese, Chorizo, Fried egg. Still lacked bacon, but yum! - rogspax, Nov 3, 2013

Parece que le disfrute estas fiestas grotescas muy bien! Please. Feel free to correct me. - Naya_Dask, Nov 3, 2013

I think depending on your certainty of my enjoyment, you might choose either ¨Parece que disfrutas las fiestas¨ - or - ¨Parece que disfrute las fiesta¨. I don´t think it needs an IOP. - rogspax, Nov 3, 2013

Since I cannot be certain of anything about you the only option is the subjunctive. I don't know what an IOP is. Thanks, you clarified what a mood is all about, for me. :) - Naya_Dask, Nov 3, 2013

Good point ;). An IOP is an indirect object pronoun, like me, te, le etc. - rogspax, Nov 4, 2013

OK. Let me rephrase then. "Parece que disfrute mucho las fiestas". Forget about grotesque as a matter of fact I'm quite fond of it myself. Thanks again rogspax. :) - Naya_Dask, Nov 4, 2013
