Questions & Answers about Nos divertimos muchísimo en la fiesta.

Why is the verb divertimos used with the reflexive pronoun nos?

In Spanish, divertirse is the reflexive form of the verb divertir. Adding nos in nos divertimos means that “we” are performing the action on ourselves—“we had fun.” If it wasn’t reflexive, it would just mean “to amuse” someone else, not ourselves.

Why do we say muchísimo instead of mucho?

Muchísimo is an intensified form of mucho, meaning “very much” or “a great deal.” By using muchísimo, we express a stronger degree of fun or enjoyment than with just mucho.

Could I replace nos divertimos with la pasamos bien?

Yes, native speakers often say la pasamos bien to mean “we had a good time.” However, nos divertimos is more specific about “having fun,” while la pasamos bien can mean “we had a nice time” in a broader sense.

How is the reflexive verb divertirse conjugated in the first-person plural?

For the present tense, it’s nos divertimos. In the past (preterite) tense, you’d also see nos divertimos but with context making it clear it’s the past. In imperfect tense, it becomes nos divertíamos. The reflexive pronoun nos stays the same for any tense.

Why is it en la fiesta and not a la fiesta here?

We use en la fiesta to show that the fun happened “at” or “in” the party. If we said a la fiesta, it would mean “to the party,” focusing on going to the party rather than enjoying it while there.
