Answer 1

The question is directed at the group. So the answer needs to come from the group or in other words from us.

Still confused with what it would be... I suck horribly in Spanish, sorry /: - xoxblasianxox, May 26, 2013

Answer 2

It will be obvious if you make sure that you know what the English translation would be.

Do you (pl) always tell the truth?

so the answer would be

Yes, we always do.

In Spanish of course the phrasing is different

Yes, always it 'we say'.

I hope that helps.

Answer 3

Dar = to give

I gave = di

you gave = diste

you all gave = dio

we gave = dijimos

they gave = dijeron

your S-E dictionary should have these in the front. Or use the conjugate section to find the words.

I think u swapped to decir half way down ;) - Kiwi-Girl, May 26, 2013

Answer 4
