"La siesta"

Everybody think that in Spain all people make a nap after lunch, every days of year. I live in Catalonia and I don't know nobody who does "la siesta" in weekdays. But is possible that some people in some days on holidays or weekend, they doing. In others spots more hot, where is not possible go out from home during the day in summer while the sun is stronger, traditionally they do this short sleep. The "siesta" should last around thirty minutes to 1 hour. If your nap last longer time, is possible that later at night, you will have problems for shut-eye to sleep.

I have a question. I wrong a lot of times with the verb in the third person. I don't notice that the subject is in third person. Is there any trick to know it?

It is very kind of you. Sometimes is difficult for me to notice that a verb is in third person. Is there any trick to find out?

Everybody think that in Spain all people make a nap after lunch, every days of year.


Everybody thinks that in Spain all people meveryone in Spain takes a nap after lunch, every days of the year. Everybody thinks that everyone in Spain takes a nap after lunch, every day of the year.

The sentence sounds more natural if you make "everyone in Spain" the subject. Also, having "everybody" and "everyone" right next to each other sounds a little repetitive in writing. You could replace "everybody" with "most people." Finally, you "take a nap" in English!

I live in Catalonia and I don't know noanybody who dotakes "la siesta" ion weekdays. I live in Catalonia and I don't know anybody who takes "la siesta" on weekdays.

"I don't know nobody" would make sense to native English speakers, but it sounds very informal and dialectical. "To do a siesta" doesn't sound wrong to me, but since it's the same concept as a nap it's better to use the verb "take."

I live in Catalonia and I don't know nobody who doehas "la siesta" induring the weekdays. I live in Catalonia and I don't know nobody who has "la siesta" during the weekdays.

But is possible that some people in some days on holidays or weekend, they doing.


But it is possible that some people in some daystake one occasionally on holidays or the weekend, they doing. But it is possible that some people take one occasionally on holidays or the weekend.

To sound natural here you have to put the action (taking a siesta) after the subject (some people). You also have to name what you're talking about (you can't just mention "doing" something). Here you can just referring to taking a siesta as "taking one" because the context of your writing is clear. I changed "some days" to "occasionally." This sounds better because it avoids the repetition of "days" in "some days" and "holidays."

But is it possible that some people ion some days onf the holidays or the weekend, they doing. are doing it/having it? But is it possible that some people on some days of the holidays or the weekend are doing it/having it?

This is a rhetorical question you need a ? At the end

You can include the information of "hotter" after the relative pronoun "where" since it also refers to the spots. In English you "leave" home. "Go out" refers to leaving with plans to do something, usually at night (watching a movie, partying, etc).

"Shut-eye" is an informal way to refer to sleep, and you can't really combine it with other words. You could say "you won't get any shut-eye," but then you'll kind of sound like a cowboy! 🤠
