Hola Kate,

'unas veces mas que otras' some times more than others
'Unas veces mas y otras no' ¿Es lo mismo en castellano? Me hace falta más contexto.

Hi el alabamiano. Could you explain me why in the first one phrase you separate some and times, but in the other one, you put the words together?

What's the difference?

¿Por qué una vez sí y la otra no?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, Hanna! It's possible that my way of explaining this would only confuse you more, so I'm placing a couple of links that might do a better job. If you're still confused, please let us know so that some of the more learned grammarians of the English language in this forum can help you with it.

2. The Grammar Lady - Tips

Dear Grammar Lady: How can we know when to use "some time/sometime/sometimes"?

A:The one-word versions are adverbs which have different meanings as follows: "sometime" means at an indefinite or unspecified time. Ex: Come and see me sometime. The plane arrived sometime in the morning. "Sometimes" means occasionally or now and then. Ex: Sometimes we hear the train in the distance. Do you sometimes wish you had chosen a different line of work? The phrase "some time" is a measure of time: It will take some time for the repairs to be made. The word "some" can be replaced by other expressions of quantity: a little/a lot of/more, etc.
