Welcome to SpanishDict. You must use proper capitalization and punctuation. This is not an option. It is mandatory on SD. - rac1, May 29, 2017

Answer 1

First of all the question word order should be changed to ¿Es aburrida la clase de español? But the answer can follow the usual English word order.

Then you have to decide, "Is this a yes/no question or are they asking for information?" I'll give you a hint: It's a "yes/no" question.

Now all you have to do is answer in the affirmative or negative "Sí" or "no" and finish the rest of the sentence.

I'll do it in English, "Yes, the Spanish class is boring" "No, the Spanish class is not boring."

Hola Dani. Yo pensé lo mismo con respecto al orden de palabras. :) - DilKen, May 29, 2017

I agree with Dani. Alternatively, for the negative response you could say: No, the Spanish class is very interesting. :) - DilKen, May 29, 2017

Now, why didn't I think of that. Gettin' old I guess. :) - Daniela2041, May 30, 2017

You? Never! :) - DilKen, May 30, 2017

Answer 2

Hello Shafay,

Welcome to our Spanishdict community forum

You asked:

"Es la clase de español aburrida? How do I answer this question ¿Es la clase de español aburrida?

We are sure that your teacher would like to know your response to this question: Is the Spanish class boring?

Your answer should either be based upon a short text that she has given you in your homework which will give you the answers if you read the text carefully or she wants to know your personal opinion about the Spanish classes she provides!.

Teachers give you homework based on the class lesson/s they have given you so provided that you listen /pay careful attention in your class to what your teacher is saying and write down new vocabulary all students should be able to make an attempt to do their own homework!

So, if the response requieres your personal opinion ¿Qué crees? / ¿Qué piensas tú? = What do you think?

Hi, Feliz: I followed you all the way to "¿Qué piensas tu? = Echar do you think? Since "echar" usually means "to throw" but has some other meanings as well, your last sentence leaves me "in the dark." - Daniela2041, May 29, 2017

Dani, thank you for drawing my attention to my mistake! The predictive text sometimes changes the words if I don't confirm the correct word. - FELIZ77, May 29, 2017

I wasn't aware that it has done so when posting my response ( pressing submit) I am.sure that you know I nearly always write good English except for the occasional typos, and try to write good Spanish. - FELIZ77, May 29, 2017

so I hope that you good people here would not really think that I had intended to write echar in my translation of the phrase! - FELIZ77, May 29, 2017

I have corrected the error in question so it should make complete sense now! - FELIZ77, May 29, 2017
