This device is often used in story telling and especially in jokes. E.g. "A man goes into a pub and asks the barman ......" It adds a freshness and immediacy to the narrative.

Does no debe stand for must not or don't have to ?

Hola,

Where there is a double vowel, such as leer, is the accent always placed on the second of the two vowels, ie leérmelo, etc?

Gracias,

This is a repeated lesson usint the same verbs:  PERDER, DEFENDER AND ENCENDER.  I wonder if that was deliberate.

Hola Foro y los expertos

Tengo una pregunta a propósito de la part de la oración  'pero he de insistir en que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Por qué, usamos 'en' aquí.  No es  possible decirlo igualmente sin 'en', 'pero he de insistir que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Hi,

I note from my dictionary that there is also the verb desayunarse.  In the above sentence desayunar has been used, when would desayunarse be better?

Many thanks.

I have just started learning about Preterito indefinido and found that one question in the test  required a preterito imperfecto answer which I have not yet learned. It is rather confusing .
