I didn´t know if you were willing
Hola a todos.
Busqué la frase ¨I didn´t know if you were willing¨ or, ¨I didn´t know if you would be willing¨, pero en este caso, no tengo confianza en el traductor aquí, así que, voy a adivinarla.
No lo sabía si estés dispuesto.
¿Alguien me puede avisar o mejorar?
Gracias. Roger

A good attempt Rogs ![]()
I will give you the answers through the use of a few examples to provide some context for the phrase you asked about
No sabía si estarías dispuesto a....ayudarme = I didnt know if you would be willing to help me
No sabía si estarías dispuesto a ....cocinar la cena esta noche= I didnt know if you would be willing to cook the dinner tonight.
No sabía si estarías dispuesto a dar de comer al perro = i didn't know if you would be willing to feed the dog
By the way, you wouldn't use the present subjunctice after si but If the word que was present in the sentence you would use the imperfect subjunctive following a verb in the past tense in the first part/clause
I didn't know that she was ill = No sabía que estuviera enferma (Two subjects: I and she separated by relative pronoun que, first part in past so second part must also be written in the past too!)
Anyway, don't worry about this for now Rogs just take one step at a time and enjoy learning ![]()
I hope this helps ![]()
Rogspax, en éste caso, sería mejor buscar la respuesta antes de que tengas que hacer la pregunta.
