Common Mistakes

  • Voy a tener cuenta tus sugerencias.

    The preposition "en" is required; "tener cuenta" changes the meaning to “to have an account”.

  • Voy a ser en cuenta tus sugerencias.

    "Ser" cannot replace "tener" in this expression; "ser en cuenta" is ungrammatical.

  • Voy a tener en cuenta tu sugerencia.

    The noun is plural; use "sugerencias" when referring to more than one suggestion.

Alternatives

  • Consideraré tus sugerencias.

    I will consider your suggestions.

  • Tendré en cuenta lo que me dices.

    I’ll keep in mind what you tell me.

  • Tomaré en consideración tus ideas.

    I will take your ideas into consideration.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking workplaces, explicitly stating that you’ll "tener en cuenta" a colleague’s ideas shows respect and teamwork. The phrase is polite yet not overly formal, making it suitable for both professional emails and friendly chats. Remember that in Latin America the "c" in "sugerencias" is often pronounced as an /s/ rather than the /θ/ used in Spain.
