Invitémoslos o invítemoslos? Invítamos o invitámos?

Question

?

Answer 1

-"Invitemos a ellos", invitémoslos -"Os Invitamos a cenar", invitamos. Nunca se acentúan las palabras llanas que terminan en vocal, o en "n" o "s" solas. (accentuation rules in Spanish).

A greeting.

Answer 2

Melissa, if you're saying "Let's invite them" I think that you drop the "s" before "los."

The affirmative nosotros/nosotras command form of a reflexive verb attaches the reflexive pronoun nos to the end of the subjunctive nosotros/nosotras form of the verb. This creates a tongue twister, so Spanish speakers drop the s that would have preceded the nos.

Sentémonos en la primera fila.

Let's sit in the first row.

Vistámonos como piratas este año.

Let's dress as pirates this year.

Casémonos en Jamaica en la playa.

Let's get married in Jamaica on the beach.

Even though the affirmative nosotros/nosotras command form of ir is irregular, it is still necessary to drop the s in front of the pronoun nos.

Vámonos para el aeropuerto.

Let's leave for the airport.

Nevermind...this is just for reflexive verbs!!! - --Mariana--, Sep 26, 2012
