Como se dice We have to study for a test?

Question

How would you answer this question?

Answer 1

according to luciente, the final answer is "nosotros teno que estudiar por el examen"

"Nosotros" is good, but "teno" isn't the TENER form that goes with it. Both "por" and "para" can mean "for", but use "para" when you're talking about a goal you're studying towards. - gozosa, Feb 18, 2010

A bit off, but a very good try, Jaz. A vote for your effort. - webdunce, Feb 19, 2010

Answer 3

"have to do something" = tener que [infinitive]

So, figure out these words:

we = ? to study = ? for = ? the test ?

And plug your results in to be able to translate it yourself. Don't forget to conjugate "tener" for "nosotros".

[we] [have ...] [to study] [for] [the test]

Answer 4

I would say "Necesitamos estudiar para la prueba" as well.

No, necesitar is "need to". Tener (conjugated) + que + infinitive is used for to "have to" + infinitive. - Rolest, Feb 18, 2010
