Thank you so much if you answer this, I really need help. My grade just dropped from an A in Spanish to a C based on three assignments this week, and I am freaking out since I've always been a straight A student ;( I will reward you brainliest for your help, I promise. I sincerely appreciate it.

Answer 1

Oi ruidos means “Hi noises” and Oyo ruidos means “I hear noises”. “Oi ruidos” is wrong because it’s improper and doesn’t make much sense which is probably the case for all of the ones considered wrong.

“Yo apague la computadora” means “I turned off the computer.” While “Yo apage la computadora” doesn’t mean anything as far as I know.

Conduje un Coche means - I drove a car while “Conduci un coche just means - Drive a car.

Trajo un Lapiz means - Brought a pencil
Traio un lapiz means - I bring a pencil

Condujeron un bus means - They drove a bus while Conducieron un bus means the same thing.


I’m not Spanish. So I may be wrong on the last two but I’m pretty positive of my answer for the other ones. Please let me know which ones I got right because I’m also learning Spanish “not at school tho” and this is a learning experience for me too. Good Luck on getting that A. <3
