Re: hace mucho no hablamos
It means:
We hadn't talked in a while. If you need more help, please contact me. Thanks.

Re: hace mucho no hablamos
Wouldn’t “we hadn’t talked” be “no habíamos hablado”?

That´s correct gernt. So the translation in this case should be "we haven´t talked" (which means we still have not taken the time to have a chat) and not "we hadn't talked" (which probably means that we finally took the time to talk) . present perfect vs. past perfect" Best regards

Re: hace mucho no hablamos
Another, more colloquial, but lengthier, translation would be:
"its been quite a while since we last talked" |
