Question

Can you tell me what I have done wrong with these sentences? The instructions are as follows: Answer these questions negatively, using complete sentences. Here is an example: ¿Puedes ir a la biblioteca a las once? No, no puedo ir a la biblioteca a las once.

Now I have only one word wrong in each sentence. It is the verb, I have the wrong form I guess. But I do not know which one to put. This is my third and last attempt or I fail it. Can you help me please?

¿Quieren ustedes patinar en línea con nosotros? No, no quieren patinar en línea con ustedes.

¿Juegan ustedes al baloncesto en la universidad? No, no juegan al baloncesto en la universidad.

¿Vuelven ustedes a casa los fines de semana? No, no vuelven a casa los fines de semana.

¿Puedo tomar el autobús a las once de la noche? No, no puedo tomar el autobús a las once de la noche.

Answer 1

Yes Lucy, I agree with Sonrisa,

and if it helps more, here is an example from your work:

¿Quieren ustedes patinar en línea con nosotros?

No, no queremos patinar en línea con ustedes.

But on the last question a person is asking "Can I take the bus..." so you have to answer "No you cannot take the bus..."

Answer 2

I agree, your verbs are the wrong thing. Don't worry, though...they are simple fixes.

If the question asks ustedes, answer with the nosotros form.

If the question asks the yo form, answer with the tú or usted form
