Answer 1

There is only one error that might not seem like a mistake to an English person but it truely isn't grammatically correct..... Usually, Spanish adverbs are placed at the beginning of a senence(if it modifies the entire sentence) or after a verb cluster(I'll explain) but never at the end of a sentence like we usually do in English

Sé que has empezado a estudiar español recientemente= MAL

Recientemente, he empezado a estudiar español= BUENO

Sé que recientemente has empezado a estudiar español= CORRECTO

Lo he hecho recientemente = OPCIONAL(but never after nouns)

Precisely the reason that I said I can't be sure above. Thanks for teaching me something new as well. :-) - Stadt, Dec 14, 2011
