Time In SpanishTelling
time in Spanish uses the same concept as English just different words.
Here is an applicable dialogue to show you how to use what you learn in
conversation. Our two friends are discussing how much longer before
they'll leave. ¿Cuánto
más tiempo
tienes?

| | A: ¿Cuánto más
tiempo
tienes? | |
How much longer do you have? | |
B: No mucho. | |
Not much longer. | | A: Nada más
quiero acabar estos antes de que me vaya. | |
I just want to finish these before I leave. | |
B: ¿Vas a mandárselos por email a tu
tutor? | |
Are you going to email them to your tutor? |

| Cuánto | más | tiempo | tienes | | How
much | more | time | have
you |
| Nada | más | quiero | acabar | estos | antes | | Nothing | more | I
want | to finish | these | before |
