Imagine
you
are with a relative, a friend or colleague. You are in a town in
Spain and it is getting rather late at night. You both would like
something to eat and the other person
says to you something like: "are
there any restaurants still open?"
In
Spanish, the other person could say:
¿Quedan
restaurantes abiertos?
The question is an
invitation for you to say whether or not there are any restaurants
still open in the vicinity of where you are. Your reply depends only
on what you know about restaurants availability at this time. Perhaps
you want to say that you:
- Believe it to be so;
- Know to be so;
- Don't know whether or not that is the case;
Here are some
examples of how you could reply:
- Creo que quedan restaurantes abiertos por aquí (I believe there are restaurants still open around here).
- Sí, quedan varios restaurantes abiertos por aquí (yes, there are several restaurants still open around here);
- Sí, queda sólo un restaurante abierto por aquí (yes, there is one restaurant still open around here);
- No, no quedan restaurantes abiertos por aquí (no, there aren't any restaurants still open around here);
- No sé si quedan restaurantes abiertos por aquí (I don't know if there are any restaurants still open around here);
Now
you should practise answering the question:
¿Quedan
restaurantes abiertos?
