Need help w/ Spanish Homework

Question

Hey guys I'm in intermediate level Spanish in college and this exercise was frustrating me to the point of making an account and asking for some help. I have attempted this exercise 4 separate times and each time all but one of these have been marked incorrect. I understand what I'm supposed to do but I'm apparently missing something. It could be something big or small (these online programs are notoriously picky) so I'm just hoping to get some perspective from you all on this. I have put what I wrote, please feel free to take a look at it and let me know where I'm wrong. I've included a gyazo link to the exercise, please let me know if there's a better way to put images in here as I'm new. Thanks!

This exercise is one of those that you can't copy and paste into one of our answer boxes. I tried. Also It's one of those that's a Spanish only exercise. There is no place for him to put the English. So I put the English in my answer. He D I D fill out - Daniela2041, Sep 2, 2016

Answer 1

I just went to this link imgur and saw your mistakes. The exercise is in reciprocal reflexives. This is where people do similar things to each other like, "They brush each other's hair." They play ball with each other. The key in English is to look for the expression "each other. In Spanish you need a reflexive "se" construction. They see each other. Ellos se ven.

In your exercise all you need to do is use the same verb and say they do the same for each other. In the first sentence, they say that Fernanda meets Lucinda and Lucinda meets Fernanda. You're supposed to say in Spanish "Fernanda y Lucinda se conocen" Note: The verb conocer can also meen "to Know" So it could be they know each other.

(2)se llaman--correct

(3) F y L se dan consejos. ( they give each other advice)

(4) F y L se ayudan (they help each other)

(5)F y L nunca se dejan de hablar. (they never stop talking to each other)

(6) F y L se quieren (they love each other)

Now if you run into any more of these you'll know how to do them.

Buena suerte.

You took a risk clicking on the link is all , I did that once and it cost me big bucks and a week off to fix. - ray76, Sep 2, 2016

Thank you for you help. Looks like I was basically just for getting the "se" qualifiers. I ended up only getting half of them right though because the site wanted me to add more from the sentence. It's really stupid. Anyways, thanks. I definlearsomething - MidnightExcursion, Sep 2, 2016

Answer 2

To insert a hyper link, you copy whatever link you want.

Then you click on the little globe at the top of the answer box. A thing called "hyperlnk" will pop up with a space to insert your link. All you do now is "paste" in your link and click on OK, and "voilà!"

You "are" a hyperlink you know. - ray76, Sep 2, 2016
