"The summers here are very hot."

Translation: Los veranos aquí son muy calurosos.

[BruceWHoll]

why wont caliente work?

[AurosHarman]

My impression is that caliente would be used to describe a concrete thing, whereas caluroso is more abstract. Pavement or a coffee mug would be caliente. The weather or ambient environment is caluroso.

[Chris785529]

Caliente didn't work for me here either, but calientes does. It needs to be plural to match LOS VERANOS.

[elizadeux]

Exactly. Caliente is an adjective and must agree with the noun that it modifies. Los veranos is plural, therefore calientes has to be plural too.

"Los veranos aquí son muy calientes."

[Maxi494502]

What is more, caliente also means horny. Caluroso just means hot (temperature)

[DuoTheBuho]

Calurosisimos?

[AurosHarman]

I dunno how common it would be, but it's certainly a valid use of the -isimo morpheme, and I see no reason why it shouldn't be accepted. If that was rejected, I hope you reported it. One detail -- you need an accent over the first i. :-D

[DuoTheBuho]

Thanks for the reply. It wasn't accepted. I reported it nonetheless. And yeah thanks for the heads up on the accent mark(and for the lingot ). Much appreciated.

Many years ago when I was in Colombia, they would say 'mucho calor'

[RobertWill981783]

Usted tiene razón. Yo sé 'hace mucho calor', so instead of 'muy calorosos', its muy calurosos. Is that correct?

[RainyOBrie]

I think it is correct, though I put that too and got it wrong. I am not a native speaker.

[SteveB557056]

Ah thanks 'muy caliente' it's been a long day

Am I the only one who finds this voice-over annoying? ;-)

[elizadeux]

The voice you hear is random. We don't all hear the same voice for a particular sentence. Judging by the large number of complaints in various parts of the forum, you aren't the only one who finds some of the new voices annoying.
