Spanish Language and Culture

Spanish is a major language of international organizations such as the Organization of Ibero-American States; and of countries in the Americas, Europe, and Africa. Until 1973, it was the official language of the Philippines, where its impact still is seen in the vocabularies of such native Filipino languages as Tagalog and Cebuano. Contributions typically raise questions about the language's local dialects; regional variations; and worldwide achievements in business, entertainment, and literature.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

'rodeo' as a noun covers many words with the sense of 'turn/turning'*

'rodear' = to surround/encircle/encompass; and in American Spanish 'to round up cattle in a rodeo' ('rodeo' is the first person (I) of the verb)

* including 'round-up, rodeo, stockyard, corral, enclosure for cattle'.

Spanish 'rancho', by contrast, means 'hut, mess-room, cattle-ranch'

2. Ellos cantaban los domingos. They sang (or they used to sing) Sundays. It continued over a span of time.

What is the 'yo' form of the verb 'empezar' in Spanish's preterite tense?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Conjugation: empecé

Note that the "z" in the root changes to a "c" in front of the "e". Because "ze" is not allowed in Spanish, the "z" transitions to a "ce". This is the same with any verb that ends in "zar" in the preterite tense yo form and in the present subjunctive.

User Avatar

In Spanish, they may be analyzed as clitics which cannot function independently, but take the conjugated form of the Spanish verb. Object pronouns are generally proclitic, i.e. they appear before the verb of which they are the object. ... Ellos te lo dijeron = "They said it to you"
