Omitting the subject Fri Jul 18, 2008 18:04 pm  Omitting the subject
 

At this phrase:
I think I'm going to be seek.
Could I ommit the subject "I"?
Like this: I think am going to be seek.

Thank you

Hi daltomaciel,

"I think I'm going to be sick" sounds natural, and you you can't omit the subject in this position. I'm sure you can in Spanish, though.
