Complicated Subjunctive Translation

Question

Hey everyone,

So I want to say: I do not want you to play video games until you finish your homework.

I think in Spanish it would be: No quiero que juegas a los videojuegos hasta terminar tu tarea.

I'm not sure if the "tu" needs an accent or if you would need the "a" between juegas and los videojuegos.

Is this correct (grammatically, accents, conjugations, etc)? Would you say it a different way? Thank you.

I think we have answered this question before. - Daniela2041, May 16, 2016

Well this has "Wedding", so I don't know if I should use two subjunctives? - Ramonaspiker, May 16, 2016

EleRo has answered your question. You comment about "this has "Wedding" does not make sense in English. However you should thank EleRo. - Jubilado, May 16, 2016

I usually say thank you Jubliado. I was talking to Daniela. Obviously my comment about wedding was 20 minutes before EleRo answered so unless I can see the future, I can't know if EleRo will answer my question - Ramonaspiker, May 16, 2016

Wedding is an acrynom for when to use subjunctive. Anyways, thanks. - Ramonaspiker, May 16, 2016

Answer 1

Me/yo: Yo juego You/tu: tú juegas He-she: el/ella. Juega, if you're talking Of two or more people, is juegan. They/ellos: ellos juegan We/nosotros: Jugamos Correct: No quiero que juegues videojuegos hasta que termines tu tarea Juegas is used when someone's play something, tú juegas fútbol (you play soccer), ella está jugando con tus sentimientos (she's playing with your feelings)

Tu doesn't need accent. Tu is used when something belongs to you, tú is used when someone is talking Of your persona, talking Of you. Tú eres un chico inteligente, (you are a clever boy) Tú corres rápido (you run fast)

Thanks EleRo! I see my mistake using juegas instead of juegues. Hasta terminar is correct though right? - Ramonaspiker, May 16, 2016

Also thanks for reminding me of tu vs tú. I should know that by now haha - Ramonaspiker, May 16, 2016

Is correct, but another way Of saying it, is"jugaras" . " No jugarás hasta terminar tu tarea" you will not play, until you finish your homework. Terminar is right but, since you are talking that he wouldn't play until he finish homework (an action in the - EleRo, May 17, 2016

Answer 2

Is correct, but another way Of saying it, is"jugaras" . " No jugarás hasta terminar tu tarea" you will not play, until you finish your homework. Terminar is right but, since you are talking that he wouldn't play until he finish homework (an action in the future) use the word "termines". No jugaras hasta que termines tu tarea. A comment can be so long, so i put an answer

Alright. Thank you very much! I think I can also use a negative command too: "No juegues hasta terminar tu tarea" right? - Ramonaspiker, May 17, 2016
