Place adverbs in Spanish express the idea of proximity or distance. The list below shows the relation between proximity and distance.<\/p>\n

Ac\u00e1 \u2013 aqu\u00ed \/ all\u00e1 \u2013 all\u00ed<\/em><\/p>\n

1. aqu\u00ed \u2013 ac\u00e1<\/em> \u2013 It means \u201chere\u201d.<\/p>\n

Aqu\u00ed est\u00e1n las entradas para el cine. <\/em>(Here are the tickets to the movies.)<\/p>\n

Ac\u00e1 <\/em>indicates a less specific place than aqu\u00ed<\/em>. Because of this, it takes certain degrees of comparison that are not common when we use aqu\u00ed<\/em>: tan ac\u00e1, m\u00e1s ac\u00e1, muy ac\u00e1.<\/em> In some Latin American countries, ac\u00e1<\/em> replaces aqu\u00ed<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Ac\u00e1 hace mucho fr\u00edo en el invierno. <\/em>(Here it\u2019s very cold in the winter.)<\/p>\n

2. all\u00ed \u2013 all\u00e1<\/em><\/p>\n

All\u00ed <\/em>means \u201cin that place\u201d, \u201cthere\u201d, \u201cfar from me and from you\u201d.<\/p>\n

All\u00ed el clima siempre es muy malo.<\/em> (The weather is always bad there.)<\/p>\n

3. All\u00e1 <\/em>indicates a less specific place than all\u00ed. It takes certain degrees of comparison that are not common when we use all\u00ed: tan all\u00e1, m\u00e1s all\u00e1, muy all\u00e1.<\/em><\/p>\n

Besides being a place adverb, all\u00e1 <\/em>can refer to a past or future time, in a non-precise form.<\/p>\n

All\u00e1 por los a\u00f1os 60 \u2026<\/em> (In the 60s \u2026 )
\nAll\u00e1 por el a\u00f1o 2025 \u2026<\/em> (In 2025 \u2026 )<\/p>\n

You can also use all\u00e1 <\/em>when you want to express lack of interest for someone or something.<\/p>\n

Si no lo quieres, \u00a1all\u00e1 t\u00fa!<\/em> (If you don\u2019t want it, that\u2019s your problem!)<\/p>\n
