Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. This is doing the same thing you have been doing! Decide if you want the tú (familiar) command or the formal Ud. Now, look up the main verbs in a good English--->Spanish/Spanish--->English dictionary.
to rent / to leave (exit) / to pass / to play / to visit
Get back to us when you have done the 20 sentences and we'll see how you do!

To translate these sentences from English to Spanish, you can follow the steps below:
1. Start by determining the key verbs and phrases in each sentence. In this case, the key verb is "don't" or "never."
2. Identify the corresponding verb in Spanish for each sentence. For example, "rent" is "alquilar," "leave" is "irse," "pass" is "pasar," "play" is "tocar," and "visit" is "visitar."
3. Now, form the negative form of the verb in Spanish by adding "no" before the verb. For example, "don't rent" becomes "no alquiles," "don't leave" becomes "no te vayas," "don't pass" becomes "no pases," and "never play" becomes "nunca toques."
4. Finally, add the object or noun in Spanish to complete the sentence. For example, "the apartment" is "el apartamento," "the papers" is "los papeles," and "your grandmother" is "tu abuela."
Based on these guidelines, you can translate the sentences as follows:
1. No alquiles el apartamento.
2. No te vayas.
3. No pases los papeles.
4. Nunca toques el piano.
5. No visites a tu abuela.
Repeat this process for the remaining sentences to complete your assignment. Remember to adjust the verb forms according to the subject and intent of the sentence.
