"Yo como una manzana y ella come pan."

Translation: I eat an apple and she eats bread.

[smeylie]

said so fast!! but still understandable, but ''ella'' is so tricky!

[acalleyne]

this might be greatly wrong but i think y and ella is pronounce as one word so yella

[SSolheim]

I keep hearing "yea,yea".

[Hunter_Safety]

sounds like yay-ah

[mitaine56]

This is to make the prononciation easier, in French we would use the apostrophe.

[Efian]

por que a ella tiene pan y yo tengo una manzana ._. muy INJUSTO

[Hunter_Safety]

tu no habla ingles? yo no hablas espanol

[Efian]

lol I speak english and am currently learning spanish.

[david_reutz]

Apple is healthier than bread :) Quiero manzana sino no quiero pan.

[siebolt]

I thought that "y" changes into "e" before a vocal.

[jacobcox36]

As I understand it, it's only before either "i" or "hi", both of which would make the same sound because the "h" is silent.

[mitaine56]

Exact.

Why is it not yo come un pan?

[mitaine56]

Because, it's : yo como, tu comes, èl come, nosotros comemos, vosotros coméis, ellos comen.

[SSolheim]

I think Pat wants to know why the article "un" is not used before "pan".

[mitaine56]

I would say that is why, pan is incountable in that case. If I would ask you to buy a bread, or one bread, it would be un pan.

[bushdbush]

Because that would mean i eat a bread.

[bittybank]

I was confused and mixed my Portuguese with my Spanish. "e" is and in Portuguese and "y" is and in Spanish. My sentence was: "Yo como una manzana e ella come pan." I just got that one letter wrong.... :(

[Huysan]

I have to use the turtle :(

[vubbles]

i am so confused is did'nt say y but that is how i got it wrong

[AbigailFKopp]

If you have a microphone just sing the words like ring-around-the-rosy.

[MohammadKh190324]

Lino suggestes "while" as an equivalent of y but i used it and lost a heart! Why is "while" incorrect?

[DoIneedone]

I thought y meant "and" and also "while". I eat an apple while she eats bread seems correct to me.

[tomokotsuneto]

I exactlly wrote like it..... but it is wrong, why....

[BenjyW0]

i wrote 'eat' as est and they said i was wrong!? can't they just infer what i meant?

[Milovenuskennedy]

i siad a instead of an, i got it wrong

[BLTB1]

the spelling throws me off. One letter takes away a heart

[RebeccaEspanol]

so fastttttttttttttttt

[RebeccaEspanol]

I go with you
