Thanks, yes, I soon realised it. I was thinking of the 1st person and conjoined it to the preterite verb. - Wannalearn, May 31, 2011

Answer 1

Estuve muy ocupado todo el día, tenía más de 700 e-mails para responder You don't need estoy there.

Would you really use a "b" in "estuve" ?? - ian-hill, May 31, 2011

Guess a few typos here rey55 "ocupado" surely :) - ian-hill, May 31, 2011

Apart from the typos, the comma cannot be used after "día". - lazarus1907, May 31, 2011

Answer 2

Estuve muy ocupado todo el día, tenía más de 700 emails por responder.

I wanted to try to correct it, but I couldn't figure out 'por responder'. :) - Tosh, May 31, 2011

Thanks Julian :-) - Wannalearn, May 31, 2011

In this case "to respond to"-->"por/para responder". Hope it helps - fjfuentesh, May 31, 2011

You are welcome! :) - fjfuentesh, May 31, 2011

Thanks once again, so kind ! - Wannalearn, May 31, 2011

I would use para instead of por, which I would use saying esoy por responder, I am about to answer. - Rey55, May 31, 2011

sorry, should be estoy, missed a stroke. - Rey55, May 31, 2011
