Wouldn't you say:

"¿Tu/Usted como me visitaría el sábado?" or

"¿Vosotros/Ustedes como me visitaría el sábado?" ?

Spanish is a little bit complicated Undecided

For example Ustedes and "Usted" singular and "Tu" and "Ustedes" is the same but "Tu" is more like a closer person you wouldn't never call "Tu" the king of England or a kid calling a grown up person "Tu" that would be "Usted" and "Tu" for sisters ,wife ,girlfriend everyone in simv

Now we don't use Vosotros, Vos we use "Ustedes" Usted which is the same but this is Spain/Argentina spoke

and Both are wrong Webb would be like this

Me visitaria Usted el sabado?

we don't have auxiliary verbs

example
Does she knows how to drive?

in spanish
knows she how to drive?......something like that Tongue

so its the same as irish?
(optional,i think)/1=does/did
1=verb(know)
2=who(she)
3=what(drive)

an irish question goes like this:(i think)

ar d'ith sé dónál úll?

did(ar)
eat(d'ith)
he dónál(sé dónál)
apple(úll)

so:
did dónál eat the apple?
=
did eat he dónál apple/ar d'ith sé dónál úll?

it could be ith instead of d'ith.

This still uses a singular pronoun - "Does she know how to drive?"

If I were referring to a bunch of bimbos would I say, "Do they know how to drive?"

A bad day at golf is better than a good day at work.

You're saying you're a little behind?
