Also, if I may.. Jpablo gave you a perfect correction, but I would like to see if I can help you with one thing... when you say "Entendéis" that means "You-plural understand" in the present tense. First of all, you need the past tense, and to say that "they" did you need to use the past tense third person plural, as Jpablo gave you. What I bet you got confused with was this... the ustedes form is the same as the 'they' form. The vosotros form is independent, meaning it has its own form. The ustedes form can be used for the vosotros form, but the vosotros form cannot be used for the ustedes form.
Hopefully that helps.. because I used to mess that up too.

I understand totally. I knew what some of those mistakes were as soon as I finished posting it. My verb book has gone missing though.

I fixed a couple of more errors above.

I studied = estudié
I have studied = he estudiado
Hacer (hice) should not be used in conjugation with estudiar.

You should only conjugate the first of two verbs in a row.
When you use espero and the subject isn't changing, don't create a noun clause (with que). Simply conjugate the first verb (which you already did well) and then use an infinitive. This sentence can be read "I hope to have spent the time well," or something like that.

I thought = pensé
I was thinking = pensaba
I thought that I understood = pensé que entendí
I thought that I was understanding = pensé que entendía
I was thinking that I was understanding = pensaba que entendía

Pensaba que entendía los pronombres mejor, también.

Hola Esperar... hacía tiempo que no sabíamos de ti...
He puesto correcciones en rojo, y sugerencias en azul.
Creo que vas progresando, pero necesitas más práctica y más teoría... pero si sigues practicando, te irá cada vez mejor.

Muchas gracias.

I know I still need to work on my verbs, but I have been trying really hard to improve them. Those corrections help a lot.

Not totally sure if I understand you there.
"I can't believe some of the errors I made" ?
No puedo creer algunos de los errores que hice.
On
"algunos están claro a ver."
should be (suggestion) (as in "can be seen clearly)?
algunos se pueden ver claramente.
or
resultan claros de ver (become clear/are clearly obvious /or easy to see)?

Hello Pablo.

I have read your last post and curiosity I have seen you have wrote you had some mistakes, I'd like to watch them first, because you write perfectly and quite well your English then I don't know where are the errors.

May you tell me where are the mistakes?

I was referring to the previous post by Esperar.
His post reads,

No creo algunos errores hice. Estoy mirando otra vez, y algunos están claro a ver.

I was trying to correct and/or figure out exactly what he said, or he was trying to say.

Does that make any sense?

Thank you. (Although sometimes I am not totally sure...)

De nada... (todos tenemos que estudiar un poquito más... pero es divertido, ¡hombre!)

¿Poder alguien explicame cómo usar conjugaciónes? No sé como.

¿Si uso una conjugación para mi palabra primero, hago uso a conjugación para mi palara segunda, o hace depender por la situación?

Muchas gracias.

Leeré respuestas a mis preguntas mañana.
