Una pregunta gramática

Question

Hola a todos. Por favor, ayúdame si pueden. No estoy segura si la gramática de esta oración es correcto: “Todavía no me dormido.” He usado unos traductores por Internet para entender lo que quiere decir porque el sujeto no está incluido, sólo el objeto. Generalmente, he descubrí este significado: I still cannot sleep. ¿Pero cómo puede ser? Me parece debe ser así: Todavía no me he dormido. (I haven’t fallen asleep yet.) Yo agradecería cualquier ayuda pueden compartir conmigo. Muchísimas gracias. ~Celeste

...esta oración es correct"a". Doesn't read like something a "beginner" would write. Better advance your level. - 0074b507, Oct 25, 2011

Better advance my level? I think I left the beginner stages some time ago, but that's another story. I was looking for an answer to my question, NOT an assessment of my "level". This was from a native speaker unable to explain his choice of words. - oneqt2nv, Oct 25, 2011

Una pregunta gramatical -- "ayúdame si pueden" ""ayúdame si puedes" / "ayúdenme si pueden" - samdie, Oct 25, 2011

Answer 1

“Todavía no me he dormido.” : I still haven't fallen asleep.

The verb is dormirse, a reflexive verb. Me he dormido is the present perfect conjugation.

You and farallon7 are both correct. I was thinking along those lines. Thanks for taking the time to answer. I really appreciate it. :) - oneqt2nv, Oct 25, 2011

Answer 2

Well, it should say, "Todavía no me he dormido" That would be the response if someone is asking you, Are you already asleep?, or you can say "Todavía no he dormido" Which means, I have not slept yet.
