There are 3 ways to use olvidar:<br />1. olvidars(se) algo (he olvidado las llaves / me he olvidado las llaves)<br />2. olvidarse de algo (me he olvidado de las llaves)<br />3. olvidarsele algo a alguien. (se me han olvidado las llaves) <br />For this reason: I forgot to bring the keys - Se me olvidó de traer las llaves = not correct!<br />It should be or: Se me olvidó traer las llaves or me olvidé de traer las llaves.<br />Suerte!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887269116401276794.post-11913997733835302842010-05-24T08:13:49.625-04:002010-05-24T08:13:49.625-04:00Rodney, estoy de acuerdo con Bob.
