Rusty and Iris, you both speak about a ball. My question is, Of what ball are you talking about? speak you, On many threads you speak about a ball. Is it the ball that Rusty put in a post of this thread, or, it could it be the lost ball of the forums?


Corrections above, answer below.

The ball we're talking about is la pelota (de Iris).
She is the official 'suck up' of the forums.
Tomísimo (David) added a ball in the Smilies group so that we can give her the credit she deserves.

La pelota de la cual hablamos es la de Iris.
Ella es la pelota oficial de los foros.
Tomísimo (David) echó una pelota con los demás smileys (iconos) para que podamos darle a ella el reconocimiento que merece.

Ok, Rusty, I got it, about of your ball, or better said, Iris's ball. (Solemos usar la frase mejor dicho cuando hablamos inglés.) (Preferimos usar la forma posesiva, en vez de 'the ball of Iris'.)

Whenever Always that I want to ask a question whatever, do I have to use 'about'? Example:

Do What place are you talking about? (Here, you must use 'about'. 'To talk about' = hablar de algo
What are you talking about? = ¿De qué hablas?)

Where can I to use about in the questions it?

I want to learn more knowledge about this thread. Please you be precise about of the use of ABOUT in the questions. Thanks.

I hope you all are well.

Corrections above, and an answer below.

Some verbs require certain prepositions, just like in Spanish. When we talk about something/someone, the preposition 'about' always follows the verb. We can also speak about something/someone. These two verbs mean the same thing - hablar de algo/alguien.
In Spanish, you use the preposition de. In English, we use the preposition about. Learning which prepositions go with which verbs requires a lot of study, for both of us! This is mostly because the prepositions you use in Spanish are not necessarily the same ones we use in English.
And sometimes, just like in Spanish, different prepositions can be used to change the meaning.

All right, Rusty


Firts good morning, yesterday you explained me the use about the (ABOUT) in the questions, now, I want to write some examples, if I'm bad please let me know.

I suppose whenever, I wrote or ask some it, I will use about in the questions.

Examples:

Yesterday, you was talking about of animals.

Today, in the class, I will talking about of the planets.

a short while ago, I was talking about of the beach of my city with my friends, later I got a surprice, that is realizing a party at my home.

What are they talking about?

I hope my examples are not bad.

All right, Rusty

First, Good morning, yesterday, you explained the use of `ABOUT´, now, I want to write some examples, if I'm wrong, please let me know.

I suppose that whenever, I write or ask something, I will use about in the questions.

Examples:

Yesterday, you were talking about animals.

Today, in the class, I will be talking about the planets./I will talk about planets.

A short while ago, I was talking about the beach of my city with my friends, later I got a surprise, I realized there was a party at my home.

What are they talking about?:good:

I hope my examples are not bad.:good:

Your examples are great and very interesting.
About and of are both prepositions and usually mean the same thing when following a verb, as Rusty earlier explained, but they´re never used together.
You´re improving really fast, Crotalito!:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Corrections above.

¿De qué fiesta hablas arriba? What holiday are you talking about above?

Podemos entender mal la última frase si no sabemos de qué fiesta hablas. We may misunderstand the last sentence if we don't know what holiday you're talking about.
