The wording sounds okay, but I'm not sure... Hello, What came to mind was the following: After having had given it some thought, etc... Is this correct? Or should I say: After having thought about/of it, etc... The below sounds off to me: After having given it some thought, etc... Wanting to stick with the past tense, which one(s) would be correct? Perhaps there are better options? Your help is appreciated, thanks!

Connecting Consecutive Verbs in Spanish ¡Hola todos! Soy un pricipiante de español y esta es mi primera pregunta. I’ve noticed that consecutive verbs are sometimes connected with “a”, “que”, “de” or nothing at all. I’m confused as when to use which. Here are some examples that I’ve seen: “a”: Voy a hacerlo “que”: No tienes que decir eso “de”: No te olvides de hacerlo nothing: Déjame saber I’d love to know the rules that determine which word to use as a connector. Some followup questions: 1. I've not seen "a" used without the verb "ir" yet. Is "a" used exclusively to connect the verbs that come after the verb "ir" only? 2. Can I mix them up? That is, can I use “que” and “de” interchangebly to connect the verbs? Gracias por ayudarme.
