"Que tanto hizo que no invito"

Question

Que tanto hizo que no invito.

Is this literal or is it an expression?

Are you sure that it is correctly written? It doesn't make any sense. - Cordobesa, Jul 31, 2012

Hey, Kelley.

I've never heard it before and can't find anything similar online.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.

Answer 2

Que tanto hizo que no invito.

I can only be speculative as to what might have been the purpose of this sentence.

Hizo – is the third person singular of the preterite. (he, she, you, it) did make/do

However, since invito – the first person singular present indicative (I) invite…I invite,do invite,am inviting…

I believe something might be missing from the sentence structure. So, if you will allow me to imagine…

This might be what you are after.

“How silly he became” (using hacerse instaed of hacer) …”Que tanto se hizo” “que no lo invito”. “that I’m not inviting him”.

Que tanto se hizo que no lo invito. How silly he became that (so) I’m not inviting him. ?

I probably would have chosen a different way of saying this. Hope you have fun at the site.

Se convirtió en tonto, así que no lo invitaré. He became silly, so I will not invite him.
