Some corrections above.


@Eva: "indecible" is something that cannot be expressed with words. Specifically, this sentence is used when you have been through an intense suffering...


La enfermedad de Juan lo ha hecho sufrir lo indecible.
Juan's disease has made him suffer so very much, words cannot describe it.

Esta tarde en el dentista he sufrido lo indecible.
This afternoon, at the dentist, I have gone through excruciating pain.

Pudieran is the imperfect subjunctive and is the correct usage in this case.

Hmm not sure..

'To suffer immensely'
' To suffer unbearably'
' To suffer excruciatingly' :confused:

If you want to use 'words' I would have to side with what
poli said: ' Words cannot describe my agony/pain' or something
to that effect. :)

Pudieran is the imperfect subjunctive and is the correct usage in this case.


Thanks,

Where can I learn how to use/conjugate verbs in the imperfect subjunctive (what is the translation in English?)

I don't know where you could best learn them online (apart from a grammarbook) perhaps someone else has a good suggestion for that.

One very handy tool (I think) that I use a lot , and that gives you the full conjugation of all Spanish verbs (as well as other languages) is Verbix.
It's free if you use it online:

Another tool that I use (which is software that can be downloaded for free) to practise my conjugations is the Spanish Verbtrainer:

It allows you to practise many regular and irregular verbs in all tenses, which I think is quite good. There may be other software out there if you look for it. :)

As for the appropriate use of all tenses, this is a matter of grammar and practise. Maybe a native Spanish speaker (or very experienced bilinguist.. ;) ) can give you more clues or pointers on that as I am still learning this myself.;)
