Perdonar y olvidar

Visto en un restaurante: Esta servilleta está hecha de papel que contiene material reciclado a un nivel de 90%. En su vida pasada, podía haber sido una cuenta de electricidad o una multa por estacionarse mal. Correr un tupido velo.

  4. I was worried about how many negatives there should be. I got that right, but I should have thought of the subjunctive also. Can you say your two options in English?

  5. Sure, I'll try:
    Is there anything we can't find on the internet?
    There is nothing we can't find on the internet.

  6. You're right. But now I realize that the second option was a statement, not a question. Are you saying that this is wrong?:

    ¿No hay nada que no podamos encontrar en el internet?

    1. I mean that if you want to exactly say the structure "no hay nada que no podamos..." then you must use as statement in this case. As a question sounds rare. Sorry to have been no clear in this topic.

  8. OK, I got it. "Strange" is a better word than "rare" in the context of your comment. "Rare" does not have the sense of "extraño".
