Questions & Answers about La piscina es muy honda, no entres.
Why is it no entres instead of no entra or no entras?
This is the negative command for tú. To tell someone not to do something, you don't use the normal present tense. Instead, for -ar verbs like entrar, you swap the ending to -es. That's why 'you enter' is entras, but 'don't enter' is no entres.
Can I use profunda instead of honda for 'deep'?
Yes! Both hondo and profundo mean 'deep' and are commonly used for swimming pools or water. Honda is just the feminine form to match la piscina.
The English translation says 'do not go in'. Why isn't there a word for 'in' at the end of the Spanish sentence?
Is the 'h' in honda pronounced?
No, just like almost every other 'h' in Spanish, it is completely silent. You pronounce it exactly like the word onda (which means 'wave').
