Wrong use of grammer??? Can an admin. please look into this??

Question

I was doing the Learn Spanish 2 section 15 and doing the recogonize section. I'm pretty sure that this isn't correct English Grammer, levante pesas: he lift weights, haga flexiones: She do push-ups. I'm not sure but I'm pretty posotive that saying "she do push-ups" is not the correct use of grammer. Someone should look into that :] Thanks!!! There are several others also on that paticular lesson also..

Is there any way that is an be fixed? Because I have noticed this problem on several other lessons...

Correct "do" is present indicative, whereas "Does "is the correct usage.it is transitional. - ray76, FEB 10, 2010

Present indicative 3rd person sing is "does". It changes to "do" for subjunctive. - CalvoViejo, FEB 10, 2010

Answer 1

Actually, the lesson was on subjunctive. These are correct subjunctives in English (yes, we do have them). What's needed is the main clause of the sentence. For example:

I recommend that she do push-ups.

We suggest that he lift weights.

The subjunctive in English often sounds awkward because we don't use it very often. Most people aren't even aware of it. Grammar rules are changing, and I think the subjunctive is dying in English. For now, some people still use it, and it's still correct grammar.

Answer 2

bad grammAr!

Answer 3

I agree with you.

Answer 4

It should be "She does push ups"
