Answer 1

I hope have enough time to go to the bathroom before I start work. I think you would say,

Espero tener suficiente tiempo para ir al (cuarto de) baño antes de empezar a trabajar.

Wouldn't that begin "Espero que..." ? - pesta, Oct 31, 2011

Not necessarily, because the subject of I hope and to have are the same. - Jeremias, Oct 31, 2011

If the subjects were different, you'd say: Espero que tengas suficiente... - Jeremias, Oct 31, 2011

Perfect. - ale_rd, Oct 31, 2011

Answer 2

I think you wanted "... empezando trabajar." Maybe there are other ways to say this, too.

Pesta, isn't this one of those instances where Spanish uses the infinitive for something that takes the gerund in English? - Jeremias, Oct 31, 2011

Answer 3

Espero / ojalá que me alcance el tiempo ir al baño antes de entrar al trabajo.

Same question for you, Julian... Por que no espero tener... - Jeremias, Oct 31, 2011

Answer 4

Hi poly

Just a few corrections with your sentences

Tengo suficiente tiempo a ir al cuarto de baño antes de empezar a trabajar.

---

I hope I have enough time to go to the bathroom before I start work.

---

However, I hope I have enough time is

Esporo que tenga .....

And probably better

Antes de empezar el trabajo.

Eddy, Why is this not Espero tener... Same subject for each verb... - Jeremias, Oct 31, 2011
