Así piensa la mayoría que las brujas son

Question

This is how most people think witches are. (Look). Seems a bit oddly worded to me, I would say Porque la mayoría piensa que las brujas son así, I am wrong about which is more likely to be said? Or are they about equal? Gracias....

Answer 1

Your version is perfect Porque la mayoría piensa que las brujas son así but it doesn´t exactly say what your title says. If you want to use the title (Así piensa la mayoría que las brujas son), you will have to say Así piensa la mayoría que son las brujas.

---

In the title version, where son is misplaced, Así refers to the majority of people thinking.

In your version, Así refers to how witches are.

Answer 2

Es así/Así es como la mayoria de la gente piensa que las brujas son/son las brujas.

Well I'm not asking for a complete change here, I think both of mine are correct. - jeezzle, Mar 27, 2011

But I was wondering if what the show said is MORE usual than mine. Gracias. - jeezzle, Mar 27, 2011

Answer 3

Asi piensa la mayoria que las brujas son is more likely imo.

what you attempted to say is " because the majority ( most people) think that witches/whatnots are as such."

The first would be say more often.

would be said more often - JoyceM, Mar 27, 2011
