"Ahora todo se ha determinado."

Translation: Now all has been determined.

[tonycollard]

where does the 'been' come from ??

[gmalcolm77]

I don't think so much reflexive. ' Se' also turns an active verb to a passive verb.

[mangybum]

The use of the refelxive verb.

[trebujito]

the phrase does not have much sense better " ahora se ha aclarado todo"

[wmunnell]

Why does it say I missed a word when I simply placed "now" in mid-sentence instead of at the end. "Everything has now been determined" is exactly the same as "Everything has been determined now". This is kind of ridiculous.

It's just a less common way to phrase it. So it hasn't been added to the list of acceptable answers yet.

What's wrong with "Now it has all been determined"?

[darkjedioverlord]

I think (emphasis on think) that because "se todo" is being used it tells us that "todo" is the subject of the sentence. So "all" is the subject by itself. I think (insert emphasis again) "Now it has all been determined." would be "Ahora lo ha determinado todo." Or something like it.

[lucky101man]

I put, Now it all has been determined. And that didn't work either. So it must be that we added an 'it'

You cannot change fate

[brendals]

if everything has been said, why can't i say "everything has been stated'?

[Globehead42]

I guess "stated" isn't the same as "said" in Spanish.

[roosky2003]

How about "now everything has been settled" ? would that mean the same, or do I need a different verb for that?

[kkayda]

April 2015: Since Duolingo's own definition for determinar is determin, establish, fix. Yet it refused "Now everything has been etablished". I have protested.

[WildSage]

They still haven't corrected in January 2016. Keep reporting.

They either need to accept it or fix their hints.

[JulesForest]

I agree, I thought which option was a more accurate translation in practice, and went for established over determined and was disappointed to be refused

[BrittanyRenee___]

Why is "se" necessary here?

[DavidMoore622957]

It's what is known as the "passive se." See, for example, this entry at SpanishDict.

[gmalcolm77]

It is the reflexive use for the passive voice.

[DavidMoore622957]

You are correct with respect to the passive voice, but determinar in this case is a transitive verb. It is not reflexive/pronominal.

[Jesse353633]

'Now everything has been determined' is marked wrong

[Mr.BombasticRat]

Why is "se" used in this sentence? I'm still learning why.
