TYEH-nes een-ten-SYON oh PLAH-nes deh soo-ee-see-DAR-teh
Do you have intent or plans to suicide?
💬 [suicidarte] is [suicidar] + [te], so the [te] gets attached to the end of the verb. You'll see the same with other verbs: [hacerte daño], [matarte].

ahl-GU-nah bess ahs pen-SAH-doh en ah-THER-teh DAN-yo

💬 [alguna vez] means "ever" in questions like this, not literally "some time." You can reuse it in lots of checks: [¿Alguna vez has tomado medicación?]
