🤘 Spanish for Adrenaline Junkies!
Test your Spanish asking for clarification and what people are thinking about!
Hola 👋
Want to do something crazy like parachute out of a plane or ride jetskis in the middle of the ocean while visiting a Spanish-speaking country? Check out this crazy conversation and test your Spanish when asking for clarification and what people are thinking about!
Answers:
(1) “pensado” (thought)
"Pensado" is the past participle of the verb "pensar" which means "to think."
"Has pensado" (have you thought) is used to ask someone if they have ever considered or thought about doing something in the past up until now. The construction "haber + past participle" is the present perfect tense in Spanish, which is often used to describe actions that have occurred at an unspecified time before now.
Another word that could be used here is "considerado" (considered).
(2) “Te refieres” (you refer)
"Refieres" is a form of the verb "referir," which can mean "to refer" or "to mean" in this context.
The "Te" refers to "you," making it reflexive. In many cases, Spanish speakers use reflexive verbs to indicate the direction of the action, especially when talking or referring to something.
Another phrase that could be used here is "quieres decir" (do you mean). The sentence would then be: "¿Quieres decir saltar desde un avión?". Both "referirse" and "querer decir" can be used to ask someone to clarify what they meant.
