Are you supposed to be using present tense or preterit for the excercise- you have mixed the two, there are some other errors, some I supect are correct, but without knowing what tense is requested it is hard to know. - bosquederoble, Feb 8, 2015

Thank you. I finally figured out that Gusta is present vs. gustó is past.

and molesta/molestó. You will soon learn 'guste' subjunctive - Mardle, Feb 9, 2015

Hi Melina Can you note on your profile your language level - I assume you are fluent in English but don't know your Spanish level.

As bosque says you seem to understand.

The way I work on the third person verbs is: It pleases me or it bores me etc if it is a thing singular, or verb, 3rd person singular if is a thing plural- 3rd person plural.

It does look like you tried.

This is done quickly, as I am about to have to leave the computer, but if this is supposed to be done in the present indicative, these would be my answers. I am an intermediate level learner and it could be that there are still errors I missed.

1.A él / aburrir / clases - A él le aburren las clases.

2.A ti / molestar / despertador - A ti te molesta el despertador.

3.A Juanita / importar / deportes - A Juanita le importan los deportes.

4.A ustedes / interesar / español -A ustedes les interesa el español.

5.A ella / no quedar / traje de baño - A ella no le queda el traje de baño

6.A mí / faltar / dinero - A mi me falta el dinero

7.A mi novio / encantar / bailar - A mi novio le encanta bailar

8.A Lola y a Pablo / fascinar / museos- A Lola y a Pablo les fascinan los museos

9.A nosotras / quedar / cuatro pesos - A nosotras nos quedan cuatro pesos

10.A Sara / aburrir / películas de horror- A Sara le aburren las películas de horror

If you don't understand why I changed something, ask, but it mostly looked like you understand the basic ideas. - bosquederoble, Feb 9, 2015
