Answer 1

I think "abacar bien" is like "resultar bien" but as for that preterite form "acabaste bien" I don't know. Maybe "did it turn out alright for you" but I really have no idea, natives needed etc...

Thanks for the new phrase : "Left out". - Dakie, Jan 23, 2011

Great answer Jeezie! - gone, Jan 24, 2011

Answer 2

I think I can help with your question, but I'd need more context, send me a private message?

Now I feel left out ;( - jeezzle, Jan 23, 2011

Hmmmmn, if the answer is what I think it is, it's sort of difficult to answer here... - Sheily, Jan 23, 2011

In some regions, the word acabar has a sexual connotation, which is not the meaning implied by the question. - gone, Jan 24, 2011

Answer 3

There are a lot of loose phrases that go with this, "Did it work out ok?" "How did it end up?" "What was the outcome?" "Was it ok for you?" "Were you satisfied?"

it all depends on...yawn... sorry... Context.

By the way... You said

que duermas bien and they then asked acabaste bien?

Are you sure they didn't use the word acostarse because then it all makes sense as in: "Did you sleep well?

Ho hum.

I don't think so" acostarse/acostaste bien" doesn't make any sense in Spanish, - Dakie, Jan 23, 2011

Thanks for the new word, yawn :). - Dakie, Jan 23, 2011

with acostarse I was thinking "did you crash out well?" = "Did you sleep well?" in a slang way - lagartijaverde, Jan 23, 2011

Well, I don't think there's something like that with the word "acostarse". - Dakie, Jan 23, 2011

Answer 4

It means Did you finish well?.
