From a New York Times (Spanish version) article:
MADRID — . La inflación es vertiginosa y se espera se que supere un millón por ciento para finales de año.
I know what the sentence means, but why the extra 'se' after 'espera'?
Is this a translation error (typo)? Would a native speaker from Spain say it this way?
Yes, it's wrong. It's probably meant to be
Se espera que se supere 1M.
