agree  dawn39 (X): de acuerdo, Margaret: es que tendría que ser "I have seen" porque el siglo XXI no ha terminado. Sin embargo sería "I saw the twentieth century", ¿no crees? Un cordial saludo :)

  -> Tienes razón, Dawn. ¡Vaya lapsus! Gracias.
disagree  Sandy T: 'saw' como pasado simple no puede traducirse como 'he visto' pero como dice Dawn el siglo no ha terminado...pero la frase esta en pasado. Saludos cordiales

  -> Gracias, cielos. También tienes razón.
