Alex Ortiz's answers above are correct, assuming that you are supposed to address Patricia as "tu".  If she is an elder, or less familiar to you, then you should be using "usted":\n1. Le sugiero que Ud. tome las cosas con calma.\n2. Le recomendo que Ud. se vista bien.\n3. Es importante que Ud. llegue a tiempo.\n4. Le aconsejo que Ud. se acueste temprano.\n\nWHY???\nWhether you use tú or Usted, you are making the suggestion/recommendation/advice TO Patricia, so you need to use a direct object pronoun (te or le).  You are suggesting that she do something, which is not a definite action. This is where you would use a subjunctive (subjunctives are difficult for us non-native spanish speakers to grasp!).

"Hasta la vista" means, colloquially, "See you later!".  The literal translation is "until the seeing", which of course makes no sense in English.

An infinitive in Spanish is the "to" form of a word in English.\nExamples: \ncorrer = to run\n                  comer = to eat\n                  escribir = to write\n                  tocar = to play (an instrument)\n                  jugar = to play (a game or sport)\n\nThe infinitive form of a word always ends in either an "ar," an "er," or an "ir."  The infinitive is considered the basic form of a noun.  From there, you conjugate it into different tenses and forms.

porque te sientes asi, porque las cosas estan tan mal? estoy preoucpado por ti.\n\nwhen you say porque "te" sientes asi, you are already saying tu, the te its for tu, you could say porque tu te sientes asi  but you are repeating you twice and when you really speak spanish you dont say tu and te like that because like i said before, the te is already saying tu (you)

The peron above has just copied and pasted into a free translator site. . . i have lived in spain for 33 years and that graamar is not totally correct although it is good and understandable. . .\n\ngenerally the regular past verb is (for example) \n\nCOMER ( TO EAT)\n\nCOMO ( I EAT)\n\nCOMES ( YOU EAT)\n\nCOME ( HE/SHE EATS)\n\nTHE REGULAR VERBS ALWAYS FOLLOW THIS PATTERN WITH ER, O , E , AMOS(OR SIMILAR). . .\n\nGET A SPANISH VERB FORM BOOK, TRY BUYING IT ONLINE AS THE LANGUAGE IS ALOT DIFFERENT REGARDING VERBS. . . \n\nGOOD LUCK - FURTHER TRANSLATION EMAIL ME JASPER_WOO1@YAHOO.CO.UK

This means the sentences are in the passive tense, rather than the preferred, active tense.\n\nExample:\n\n"This was the one that I had wanted." - passive\n\n"I wanted this one." - active\n\nMost of the time, active tense is preferred.
