Is this sentence right?

[Spanish] Is my sentence right for my morning routine?

  • I've got an oral exam coming up tomorrow and in it we have to describe our morning routine. I'm not sure my structure is entirely correct. Would this be alright? Primero, me despierto a las ocho menos cinco de la mañana. Luego, yo desayuno a las ocho de la mañana. Antes yo me viesto, yo me ducho a las ocho y media de la mañana. Finalmente, yo salgo a las clases. It should roughly translate to, "First, I get up at 7:55 in the morning. Then I eat breakfast at 8 in the morning. Before I dress, I take a shower at 8:30 in the morning. Finally, I leave for my classes." What I'm not sure of is the sentence "Antes yo me viesto, yo me ducho a las ocho y media de la mañana." We learned in class yesterday that when we use Antes/Despues at the beginning of a sentence, sometimes we leave the first verb conjugated (i think). But that might have been only with certain cases. I'm not entirely sure.

  • Answer:

    "En primer lugar, me levanto a las 7:55 de la mañana. Después de tomar el desayuno a las 8 de la mañana. Me doy una ducha a las 8:30 de la mañana,antes de vestirme. Por último, salgo hacia mis clases. "

Antes de vestirme me baño. You could think of using an horario, a listing by time of what you do: 7:55 Me levanto ( it means I get up, it's more exact than saying I awaken) 8:00 Desayuno 8:30 Me baño 8:40 Me visto 8:45 Salgo a por la escuela Primero me levanto a las ocho faltan cinco. Despues, a las ocho, desayuno. Luego, a las ocho y media, antes de vestirme, me baño. Por fin, salgo a por la escuela.

It's kinda weird that you say "first" and then "at 7:55". Then you say "then" and you say "at 8 in the morning". It's like saying it twice, I'd erase the "Then" and "First" parts or put the hour between commas after them. The same thing happens when you say "Before I dress" and then you say "at 8:30 in the morning". Too many time indicators! Sounds bad, at least in Spanish. It's not "viesto", it is "visto". Me despierto a las ocho menos cinco de la mañana. Luego, a las ocho de la mañana, desayuno. Antes de vestirme, a las ocho y media de la mañana, me ducho. Finalmente, voy a clase.
