Are my sentences spelled correctly?
Did I use the correct conjugation and is my spelling/sentences correct/make sense? They are pretty simple but I'm just making sure my spelling is good. Everything counts. Thanks. What is in parenthesis is what I was trying to write.
Yo duermo en la cama (I sleep in the bed)
Yo prefiero un hombre alto (I prefer a tall man)
Yo entiendo español un poco (I understand a little Spanish)

At least in Spain we do say
1)Duermo en la cama. It would be correct
2) Prefiero a un hombre alto. You need "a" because a tall man is direct object. When the direct object is a person you need to add "a" before it.
3) Entiendo español un poco It would be correct but you can say as well "Entiendo un poco español or entiendo un poco de español.
I hope this can help you. You can find useful Spanish tips and interesting articles in Spanish in my website if you want to visit it (and if you like it, don't forget click "I like it" for the Facebook, jeje ![]()
I welcome correction from other members but I would say:- 1) Duermo en cama (generally) or Duermo en esta cama (if you want to specifically point out a particular bed) 2) Prefiero los hombres altos (if speaking generally) 3) Entiendo un poco español. (as a little is a limiting adjective and goes before the noun)s
