✕Common Mistakes

  • Nosotros equipo lo hizo muy bien.

    Use the possessive adjective 'Nuestro' instead of the pronoun 'nosotros' before a noun.

  • Nuestro equipo hicimos muy bien.

    The verb must agree with the singular subject 'equipo', not the plural 'nosotros'.

  • Nuestro equipo la hizo muy bien.

    Use the neutral pronoun 'lo' for an abstract idea; 'la' would incorrectly gender the object.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking cultures, praising the group rather than the individual reinforces teamwork and humility. The neutral pronoun 'lo' can refer to an abstract idea (the project, the task) without specifying gender. If you want a stronger compliment, swap 'muy bien' for 'excelente' or add 'con gran éxito'.
