[SuperPianoSam]

hola amiego

tengo que hablaro contigo

[Milka4592]

tienes que and tengo que do they have the same meaning????u have to????



[learnspanish1]

@Milka4592

tengo que = I have to

tienes que = (do) you have to

[Milka4592]

@learnspanish1 oh yesss that's clear thank uuu

[learnspanish1]

Best to think of tengo que/tienes que as set phrases meaning I/You have to or I/You must. You don't usually use the que to make 'to' e.g. I want to see = Quiero ver . No que is used.

Hope that helps

hello, im confused about the "que"when do we mention the que and when do we not mention it. like for "you have to come to the party" we said tienes que... whats the que exactly? is it "to" ??? thank youuuuu

i cant find day 5?

[learnspanish1]

You just need to think of 'tengo que' as a phrase meaning I must or I have (to). It works out as I have that to speak, if we translate literally.

i don't understand.when do we use "que"? we say tengo QUE hablar contigo,but we say quiero hablar contigo.shouldn't we say quiero que hablar contigo?

[AzuLIzumi]

@iloveyourhamster no you cant say " quiero que hablar contigo"

you can say...

Quiero hablar contigo -- i want to speak with you

tengo que hablar contigo -- i have to speak with you

me gustaria hablar contigo -- i woul'd like to speak with you
