¿Cuál es la diferencia entre Vienes al doctor y Vas al doctor?
Buena pregunta, cloudybrook!
Vienes comes from the verb VENIR, meaning to come.
Vas comes from the verb IR, meaning to go.
The difference can sometimes get a little tricky in Spanish, as we use the verbs just a little bit differently than in English, but for this situation, the person saying "¿Vienes al doctor?" is either at the doctor´s office or on his way there, whereas the person saying "¿Vas al doctor?" is not going to the doctor´s office himself.
La pregunta del día: ¿Conoces a tus vecinos?
Question of the day: Do you know your neighbors?
People in Latin American countries tend to be very friendly with their neighbors and know them quite well. Is this different from your situation?
Conozco a mis vecinos y son buenos amigos!
Los vecinos de arriba y los de abajo!!
Tenemos un vecino muy amigable que tiene un perro precioso. Se lo cuidamos cuando está de viaje y él nos ayuda a quitar la nieve de la banqueta. Es un intercambio justo :)
We have a very friendly neighbor who has a lovely dog. We take care of it for him when he's traveling and he helps us clear the snow from our sidewalk. It's a fair exchange :)
No conozco mis vecinos. Quiero conocerlos mejor.
Yo tampoco conozco a mis vecinos, chatsoir...qué pena, verdad, que vivimos vidas tan ocupadas que nisiquiera conocemos a la gente que vive a unos cuantos metros de nuestra puerta...
Todos los vecinos y yo nos decimos 'hola' cuando nos vemos pero conozco solamente a algunos. Estos son buen amigos y hablamos mucho de la vida.
Me gusta esta lección -- aunque es corta se incluye frases útiles.
Qué tal, hollis! ¿Me permites hacer un comentario? Sería más natural decir "los vecinos y yo nos saludamos" en vez de "decir 'hola.'"
¡Qué bueno que tengas tan buena relación con los vecinos, te lo envidio!
lilliana es guapa!
Muchas gracias!
