Juanes Lucha Por Los Derechos Humanos El Cantante Colombiano Reveló Que Está Estudiando La Posibilidad De Pedir a La ONU Que Modifique Su Carta De Los DD.HH Juanes lucha por los Derechos Humanos El cantante colombiano reveló que está estudiando la posibilidad de pedir a la ONU que modifique su Carta de los DD.HH. para incluir en ella el derecho a vivir en paz Durante una rueda de prensa para presentar su gira “La vida” en España, Juanes reveló que un grupo de artistas, incluido Miguel Bosé, entre otros que no mencionó, intentarán recabar apoyos para que las Naciones Unidas medite sobre esta modificación. ''Vivimos en una cultura guerrista. La gente tiene derecho a la paz'', señaló el intérprete de éxitos como “La camisa negra”, “A Dios le pido” y “Me enamora”. El artista también explicó que espera una solución pacífica al conflicto entre el gobierno de Colombia y las Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias (FARC) . ''Cada vez se acerca más ese momento de la paz'', señaló con optimismo. Dijo que si él se convirtiera en el presidente de su país: ''Me sentaría a hablar con las FARC'', expresó sin atisbo de duda.

However, it will follow a past tense sequence (see sheet on tense sequence). The imperfect subjunctive also has one use, which is specific to it, i.e. it is not the case for the present subjunctive. This is in unfulfilled or remote conditions; e.g. If he were to come to the party I would stay. Si viniera a la fiesta, me quedaría. If I had more money I would buy a house. Si tuviera más dinero, compraría una casa. Exercise. Translate the following sentences into Spanish: 1. If I were president I would improve the economy of this country. 2. If it were to rain, I would not be able to go to the match. 3. If it were true, I would go to the police. 4. If I were you, I would go home. 5. If I had known, I would have told you. Another use for the imperfect subjunctive is to say sentences along the lines of "What if ... ?", e.g. And what if it were to rain = ¿ Y si lloviera ? Exercise Translate the following sentences into Spanish: 1. What if I didn’t have enough money? 2. What if they didn’t arrive? 3. What if my mother were worried about me? 4. What if they decided to abandon me? 5. What if I were imagining it all? 6. What if it were all a bad dream? 7. What if they loved me after all? 8. What if I was born the most beautiful baby in the world? 9. What if they bought me a Ferrari F40 for my 18th birthday? Sequence of tenses in the subjunctive The imperfect subjunctive is used in the two situations given above and is also used in all the situations in which the present subjunctive would be used but following the past tenses, with the exception of the perfect tense. The following chart illustrates the most expected combinations: Indicative tense of main verb Subjunctive tenses permissible in dependent clause Present (I finish, am finishing) Present subjunctive or perfect Future (I will finish) subjunctive (haya ….-ido/-ado) Imperatives (Finish!) Perfect tense (I have finished) Future perfect (I will have finished) Imperfect (I was finishing, I used to) Imperfect subjunctive or Preterite (I finished) pluperfect subjunctive (hubiera … - Conditional (I would finish) ido/-ado) Pluperfect (I had finished) Perfect conditional (I would have finished) Examples: Quiero que vayas al supermercado – I want you to go to the supermarket. Quería que fueras al supermercado – I wanted you to go to the supermarket. Neil Jones .

  • Austin City Limits Debuts New Season with Latin Superstars Juanes and Jesse & Joy Season Premiere Airs October 5Th on PBS
    Austin City Limits Debuts New Season with Latin Superstars Juanes and Jesse & Joy Season Premiere Airs October 5th on PBS Austin, TX—August 22, 2013—Austin City Limits (ACL) launches its 39th Season with two of the biggest acts in Latin music today, Juanes and Jesse & Joy. Colombian superstar Juanes performs a thrilling high-energy set, while Mexico City’s sibling duo Jesse & Joy sing a selection of their breakthrough hits. The season premiere—the first to feature Latin artists in the debut episode—airs Saturday, October 5th and showcases ACL's long-standing commitment to feature the best in music from around the world. ACL airs on PBS stations nationwide (check local listings for times) and the full episode will be made available online at acltv.com immediately following the initial broadcast. With six solo albums to his credit and multi-platinum sales of over 16 million, Juanes is the world’s leading all-Spanish language rock artist. An electrifying guitarist and gifted songwriter, Juanes made his ACL debut back in 2005, and has since gone on to win multiple Grammy Awards and a record number of Latin Grammys. The Associated Press calls Juanes “the first truly international rock star to emerge from Latin America.” Juanes returns to the ACL stage in a dynamic performance, kicking things off with “Fijate Bien,” the Latin Grammy- winning title track to his debut album. He pays tribute to one of his inspirations—Bob Marley—with a Latin spin on the reggae classic “Could You Be Loved?”. By the time he launches into his huge hits, Juanes proves he doesn't need to sing in English any more than he needs a surname to thoroughly rock the Austin audience.
