No tengo perdonaré vs. No te perdonaré

Question

Are both of these phrases correct? This show says "No tengo perdonaré"..."a ti no te perdonaré nunca!" thanks

Answer 1

"No tengo perdonaré"

There is one way in which this works, and it is a rather contrived expression.

Let me see if I can make a similar construct in English:

"I don't have any 'I'll forgive you' left in me for you. I will never forgive you!".

It is a strange thing to say, and only a native would be able to come up with an expression like that, I think. But it works in that context.

Answer 2

"A ti no te perdonaré nunca" ... It's correct

The second could be "No te perdonaré" ... Never "No tengo perdonaré"

Answer 3

Effectively, "¿No tengo perdón?" is a correct question and I would translate it as: "Don't I have forgiveness?"

Answer 4

Huh. I wonder if he said "No tengo perdón....a ti no te perdonaré nunca!" and meant "I don't have forgiveness....I will.... never forgive you!" like that... It definitely wasn't a question...he said it right before he beat some guy up. Thanks for all your help so far Carlos.

Answer 5

What if I said "No tengo perdón?" Would that mean that I am not forgiven? Or can you never use tengo with perdón? thanks
