Spanish desires.. Hi, A common expression in english is "to look forward to (something)". For example: - "I look forward to hearing how your job interview goes!", or - Mercedes wasn't looking forward to her flight. My question is, what is the best equivalent in Spanish? I've often heard the expression 'tener ganas de (verb)', but I also heard that this is more appropriate for spontaneous impulses, for example, -"tengo ganas de comer un helado." And, although translations are rarely exact, it would be very strange in english to tell someone that "I have desires to see you next week!" (i.e. "tengo ganas de verte la semana que viene"). The other expression that you see often is 'tener ansias', although I suspect this is maybe the same as above, as ansias translates to 'cravings'. Thank you!
