"I hope you my friends will help me" - Espero que vos mis amigos me van a ayudar -

Question

"Espero que vos mis amigos me van a ayudar" Is this the correct translation for the English "I hope you my friends will help me"

Answer 1

Hi and welcome to the forum.

I'm not sure why you have "vos" thrown in there. Can you explain?

Also, the subjunctive is always used after an expression like "Espero que..."

I agree. Especially with "os"... even if the vosotros form is intended, "van" is not in the vosotros form. - danrivera, MAY 15, 2010

Answer 2

"Espero que vos mis amigos me van a ayudar" It seems like it was said in Argentinian Spanish. Because they say "vos" instead of say "tú". But even in this case this sentence won´t make sense...because the right way to say it in Argentinian Spanish would be "Espero que ustedes mis amigos me ayuden".

As Spanish I would say it in this way: Espero que mis amigos me ayuden"

Thanks, Ana. - --Mariana--, MAY 15, 2010
