I give you, you give me

I give you, you give me

I wasnt sure how to search for this kind of post, so sorry if there already is one. I was so excited when I figured out "te di" meant "I gave you." As in, there was a formula to that kind of phrase. I'm still not perfect at it, of course: Sometimes I see things like "me hablo." Why is that? It sounds as though you're talking to yourself. Also, for a really vague question, is there anything else I should know about this, er, phrasing?

Me hablo (accent on the o) is the past tense of the verb hablar Mi hermana que vive en Argentina me hablo ayer a traves de Skype, estuvimos moviendo la lengua por dos horas, maravillas de la tecnologia!

Instead of just saying "accent on the 'o'", why not just put the accent on the "o" to avoid confusion? - Azabache, Aug 12, 2012
