Que voy acer? Grammatics

[Mr.Mark]

I think that getting a job here, especially in the conditions you've told us, depends a lot on who you know that lives here and who those you know know. In the second place, you gotta let us know what your skills are and about your previous work experience.

Its "hacer" not "acer".

Now you said you want a job in dollars? Why? because you have studied in USA and now you want to move to DR so you think you deserve to be paid in dollars? get in the line buddy. There are many folks who are as qualified as your and jobless here or making money in pesos.
Jobs are very scarce here to beguin with and if you dream about getting paid in dollars, god help you.

And it's "Que voy a hacer?".......don't forget the preposition "a"......you don't want to speak like a caveman

AZB is right. Dollar incomes are scarce. Don't come to the DR thinking that opportunities will be jumping out at you. Take a look around, learn about the place first hand and then CREATE an opportunity for yourself.

but if you're trying to say "What am I going to do?" instead of "Que voy hace", which to me doesn't make sense , how about "¿Que hare yo?"

Absolutely, with his attitude he will become a man without a country. The Dominicans will resent his thinking he is too smart to work for pesos. The ex-pats will consider him another Dominican who couldn't make it in the States.

Scandall, I never heard anyone say: Que voy a hacer.

Does the 'a' need to be included in this sentence? I really dont think so, then again, I had my last Spanish lesson when I was 8. Thanks.

Lesly or Jessy - where are you when we need you?!

I really didnt want to comment on his poor English use because I really cannot point fingers... But if his true writing skills are presented in his post - he is hit both in Spanish and in English! Good luck with the job search...

The most appropiate translation for "What am I going to do?" in that context is "¿Qué voy a hacer?", "¿Qué haré yo?" is not very idiomatic in Spanish.
