Do you know how to use tardar, llevar and durar well in time expressions?

One is good for saying how long something has been going on, one for how long something takes and the other for how long something lasts.

If you need to brush up on these three verbs and how to use them in time expression this little lesson might help.

This is a perfect example of when not to use the machine! enter image description here

Take, take, take - Audio Microsoft Translator
Take, take, take - Audio SDL
To be late, to go, to last

Estos verbos se ven realmente interesante! Iré a trabajar con estos como mi tiempo permite, Kiwi. Muchas gracias!
