Hi,

I thought I had answered this correctly by choosing the subjunctive of terminar: termine. But it was marked wrong with what I think is just another variation on subjunctive for terminar: terminase. (See below.)

Am I wrong? What am I missing here?

Thanks!

Dijeron que nos pagarían las horas extra trabajadas cuando ________ el mes.

They said they'd pay our overtime when it was the end of the month.

terminase

terminaba

terminó

termine

Is it possible to add this list to my notebook?

When "explain this" for less than correct answers refers to why the correct answer applies, I think it would be just as helpful if the program explained why the chosen wrong answer is not correct and under what circumstance it would apply.  Too hard maybe for "fill the blank" but possible for  multiple choice.  I think I saw a table that compares these impersonal pronouns, how can I find it? (Algún, alguno, algunos, algunas)

Also, when I looked up the wrong answer I found what I think is less correct English.

Guillermo didn't know many pubs and he wanted to go to some (a random pub). = "Guillermo no conocía muchos bares y quería ir a algún. ALGUNO."

In this case, SOME, implies more than one.

what's the difference between usted and vosotros?

I learned that you can use the futuro simple and the condicional simple to express something which might happen in the future.

Is the difference that the futuro simple only can be used with a sentence which states the probability of the action?

E.g.:

Tú ________ chocolate sin parar

Comerías

Pero:

Probablemente, tú comerás chocolate sin parar.

If my assumption is correct, what is the difference to:

Probablemente, tú comerías chocolate sin parar.
