    how do you say this in a nice way in spanish? I need to be able to explain to a lady we work with in Nicaragua that I need her to cooperate and work with another guy named Carlos. How would I say this in a nice way: Mirsa our group would like to ask that you work with Carlos to go through the list of families and go to the bank with him. Can you do that please?

    They are all correct. She IS invited means there is an event that she is welcome to go to. She is BEING invited - means that it happening right now, in the present someone is inviting her now. She WAS invited - means she got the invitation in the past. She WAS BEING invited - I would not use this as it is a odd verb tense. It's in the past "was" and active now "being". It's like saying - I was working - which means at some time in the past I was working. But it doesn't really apply well here.

    Oaxaca

    Oaxaca is a very popular place to visit on sumer vacation. But, after the recent events,  people had started to think the worst.
    I
    hearded a lot of people saying that it's a dangerous place, but a want to say they are wrong. Oaxaca continues to be a beatiful place to visit, here  we have a lot a cultural things to do here, and spend time (needs another word to end sentence). My favorite place its at  is the downtown, there you can walk on a boulevard. At the end of it is a church, that was built in 1575. Also you can find a lot of cafes to spent time with your friends. If you want to visit a museum, I recommend the MUFI, it's next to the church, there you can find the history of postage stamps.


    In July we have the biggest party. It's the Guelaguetza, that its an event where people dance folkloric dances. You have to visit Oaxaca, ims I'm sure you are going to love it.

    NOTES: In English we always have capital letters in names of places, months and the word I (yo). Its and it's are confusing but this is the easy way to help you remember (don't worry even native English speakers get this one wrong)

    it's = it is - so use this one when you want to say "it is" but in shorter form

    its = means it belongs to that thing as in "the tiger wagged its tail" - see you would not say "the tiger wagged it is tail" so you know it is the one without the apostrophe - its.

    Hope that helps.
