Answer 9

The thing that I would say (normally: 'What I would say')

i'm confused with this one

would it be

Lo que yo diría

or

Lo que yo diga

The first one, because you want to declare it. The second one can be used in circumstances where you don't or can't declare it:

Harás lo que yo te diga.

The thing that I would say (normally: 'What I would say')

would it be
Lo que yo diría
or
Lo que yo diga

Answer 11

"Lo (que)" in Spanish is practically the same "The thing (that)", but it doesn't have an exact counterpart in English all the time, because you have other ways to express things sometimes. Look at these:

The thing that I want (normally: "What I want")
The thing that you saw (normally: "What you saw")
The best (thing)
The strange thing
The thing that I would say (normally: "What I would say")

Although you sometimes would say "what" instead of "the thing that", if you have the possibility to use the latter instead, then you are probably facing something that in Spanish requires "lo". Care to translate the above phrases into Spanish now'

Answer 12

After reading up about the nuter article "Lo" I am going to type a "Lo" sentence and you tell me if I am right or wrong, okay...

My "Lo" sentence is:

¡Quiero el perrito gris y el gatito negro!

There is no such "lo" in Spanish: "perrito" and "gatito" are both masculine nouns. There are no neuter nouns in Spanish. Also, this kind of adjectives must go after the noun.

The typical "the" in English can be "el", "la", "los" or "las", but never "lo".

Quiero los perritos grises y los gatitos negros.

That's a mistake that people who don't "sesea" would never make, but our pronunciation is restricted to some parts of Spain, so...

Answer 13

Okay I get the "Perrito gris" thing now and sometimes the adjective doesn't follow like in "Los niños quieren dos perros" but it said "Lo" was used in a way to describe a noun with a adjective so Lazarus or Heidita or also Quentin help me ¡Por favor!

Answer 14
