•Why do we have to use 'pero' in the first sentence?
•In the hint provided, it was given that tardar tiempo = take long, then in the answer key, why is 'mucho' used?
What are the equivalents for can't & must not for logical conclusions in Spanish? That is, how can I express the difference in meanings given in the following examples?
(present)
The restaurant can't be open - the door is locked
The restaurant must not be any good - it is always empty
(Past)
He had left the office at 6:00 p.m. He can't /couldn't have been at home at 6:05 p.m
She was not answering the doorbell. She must not have been at home then.
Regards,

Sería bueno si Carmen estudiara más.

Hello! I thought the hint for "to sign up for" was "inscribirse a." The correct response was "inscribirse en." Are both forms acceptable? Thank you!
The speakers are having a phone conversation.There, where you live, is it cold? : ___, donde tú vives ¿hace mucho frío?
Why is alli not possible in this question? Considering that they are on the phone, they might feel quite far apart from each other.
Hola Inma,
I used "planta" rather than "piso," and was marked incorrect. Is there a subtle difference?
Saludos

How do I know when a noun is masculine or feminine?
Do I go off the last letter of the noun? Like planta and idea end in 'a' so I use una, but if it ends in an 'o' or any other letter besides 'a' then I say un.
When is tiempo used?
