Answer 1

0) When should I use "cuantos" instead of "cuanto"?

I presume you refer to "cuántos" and "cuánto", with accent. "Cuántos" = how many (for masculine only)? and "cuánto" is "how much".

1) How to say "I wanna tell you"?

Te quiero decir/ quiero decirte?

Both are incomplete: you need an object. So either "Te lo quiero..." or "Quiero decírtelo".

2) Is the a rule about the location of the "te" and "me" in the sentence?

With "querer + verbo", either before, or attached to the verb.

Solo quiero hablar/ quiero hablar solamente?

Both are correct.

¿Me puede ayudar? / ¿Puede ayudarme?

Same as with "querer": both are correct.

6) Is the following sentence correnct? - "¿Tú lo sabes"?

You can't delete the "s", because it must agree with "tú".

Is it "Me encanta el espanol"?

"El idioma español" is masculine, and languages are written in lower case.

8) If I want someone to stop talking to me, can I say "no me digas nada"?

That means "Do not tell me anything".

How to say it in spanish? "¿X tiene algo que ver con Y"?

Yes, and probably more often, "¿Tiene X algo...?"

10) If i wanna ask about a price of a product in English, what should I say?

¿Cuánto cuesta?

I agree with you post, but can't you say "te quiero decir", not "te lo quiero decir", I just though this because my spanish teacher (who is cuban) always used to say "no te puedo decir" if we asked for an answer. - eltennis97, Aug 25, 2011

Answer 2

5) How can I say (whem i'm in a hotel) "I have a reservation. I'm here in order to take my Card" (i'm now sure how it called, but with that card we can open the door of our room in the hotel).

Googling I see these referred to as both llaves de tarjeta or simply tarjeta llave

Tengo una reserva. Estoy aquí para recoger mi tarjeta llave.

Answer 3

cuánto = how much

cuántos = how many

It's a start!

Answer 4

When I wrote "Te quiero decir/ quiero decirte" I meant there is a continuation after that, like: quiero dercirte que eres imbecil. Just for example raspberry So now, is it correct? Because the subjet will be add to the phrase..

Yes, it's correct that way. Your indirect object pronoun 'te' is there, and you direct object is either the pronoun 'lo' or the noun or noun phrase.

"Quiero decirte que eres imbécil " appears to be correct.

I hope we get another opinion. I'm only learning, too. :) - pesta, Aug 26, 2011

Answer 5

Can someone help me?

Answer 6

WOW

Guys, I'm speechless!!

Thanks you so much, to all of you, todos!!

No puedo agradecer as you deserve

But I have to ask one more:

About that:

"Both are incomplete: you need an object. So either "Te lo quiero..." or "Quiero decírtelo"

Answer 7

Gracias a todos!! , but about number 10. I'm asking for a price, the answer will be number, who can that be "much"? It should be "many"? isn't it?

When you say "how much?" the complete question is 'how much money does it cost?'

Money is an uncountable noun, you can't say moneys (X). So 'how many money or moneys' is wrong.

By the way, "Cuántos" = how many (for masculine only)? " What if it is a faminane? Should I say "cuanto"?

'Cuántos' for masculine only

For feminine you have to use 'cuántas'

¿Cuántas camisas rojas tienes? (How many red shirts do you have?)

Camisa is a feminine noun

Answer 8

For how much does it cost, I think there are several that will get the point across:

1. ¿en cuánto sale...?
2. ¿qué cuesta...?
3. ¿a cuánto es...?
4. ¿qué precio tiene (o cuál es el precio)...?
5. ¿qué vale...?

Sorry, did it hastily, so tildes may be missing!

Answer 9

It should be "many"? isn't it?

By the way, "Cuántos" = how many (for masculine only)? "

What if it is a faminane? Should I say "cuanto"?

Answer 10

10 How much does it cost? How much is it?
