Why it's built this way

The notes match the numbers above.

  1. 1
    Me da la impresión = I get the impression; Portuguese says tenho a impressão. Verbs like gustar II: doler, parecer, quedar, importar, molestar, faltar →
  2. 2
    The noun impresión needs de que: this de is correct.
  3. 3
    estar + participle for a resulting state; it agrees with ellos. Passive voice and resultative estar →
