Hello Lucy,

Welcome to the SpanishDict forum .

Please take a few minutes to fill in your basic profile, giving us: 1 your gender (Yes, I know it is pretty obvious here from your name, but some people here use nicknames that don't accurately reflect their gender (male/female) and 2 your level of ability in both Spanish and English. We need this information to know how best to help people ie: which is their first/native language so we know whether to answer in Spanish or English! Thank you for your cooperation

You asked :

Yes, 'Debería haber comido' = I should have eaten. This is perfect! Great work so far...Well done!

You just need to add the rest of the sentence which I am sure you can do, as it is much easier!

I hope this helps

Thank you! Yes I'm trying to fill it out but it doesn't seem to be saving :/ - lucy1010, Jan 18, 2016
