Questions & Answers about Veo la imagen en la televisión.
Why do we use veo here instead of miro?
Ver is about the physical sense of seeing or noticing something, which fits perfectly with verbs of physical perception. Mirar, on the other hand, is an active, intentional action (to watch or to look at). Since you are just stating that the image enters your field of vision, veo is the natural choice.
How would I use the grammar from this lesson to say "I see it moving on the television"?
To do that, you replace la imagen with the feminine direct object pronoun la and add a verb. You can use the infinitive (moverse) or the gerund (moviéndose). The sentence becomes La veo moverse en la televisión or La veo moviéndose en la televisión.
Is there a rule for why imagen is feminine? I thought nouns ending in consonants other than -d or -z were usually masculine.
Is there a difference between en la televisión and just en televisión?
