how would you say: I have had?

Question

Hi/Holla!

I'd like to say that I have had three Spanish lessons. Would it be:

Yo tuve tres leccion de espanol?

Many thanks/gracias

Nicky

Answer 1

The ya with the letter a at the end is not a mistake. Yo or I is not needed. It is assumed.

Disclaimer….. I am not sure about this. …But this is how I would say it:

Ya he tenido tres lecciones de español.

or

Ya tuve tres clases de español

or

Ya tome tres lecciones de español.

I like your 1st answer best. - canicos, Jul 22, 2010

Yes I would agree that your first answer is best - FELIZ77, Jul 22, 2010

Answer 2

Sobre means above or near by. It also could be an envelope. sobre means envelope -also-.

You might be thinking in English where it would be correct to say, I had the Spanish lessons about Spanish. A little awkward but never the less correct.

I think you mean awkward - FELIZ77, Jul 22, 2010

were it correct to say (you don't need would be ) - FELIZ77, Jul 22, 2010

Answer 3

Hola y bienvenida,

He tenido tres lecciones sobre español.

Edit: He tenido tres lecciones de español.

"Yo" tuve tres lecciones is the simple past tense, I had three lessons.

de might be better than sobre - canicos, Jul 22, 2010

sobre is not used corectly in the sentence that we are talking about. - viajero, Jul 22, 2010

thanks, I'll change it to de - canicos, Jul 22, 2010
