[A comment rather than a question]: All  '-erir' verbs [apart from the barely used 'enjerir'] change the e to ie:, e.g. sugerir, referir, preferir, diferir, transferir, requerir and a host of others. A similar rule applies to [all !] '-vertir' verbs: convertir, divertir(se), etc. etc.... On the other hand, all '-etir', '-edir' and '-egir' verbs adopt the e>i change.... With help from a CD which enabled words to be listed in reverse-alphabetical order, I examined the contents of my CLAVE dictionary, and posted the results in http://dlmcn.com/ir_verbs.html (the accents are properly represented in http://DLMcN.com/irverbs.doc ).

Could you explain how 'hago' comes to mean 'I am walking.' please.  How would one know?  Is this an idiomatic usage?

Hello,

in this sentence :

why isn't it :  "... ir al psicólogo no sería una mala idea." ?

thank you !

Why is there "en su espalda" and not en LA espalda? 

How old is Mafalda?

Why is it "pero esta muy fría" instead of "pero está muy fría"?  Also, why is it "está protegida" instead of "es protegida"?

Am I right that I could exchage qué poco with cuánto and the sentence would be correct just with an opposite meaning?

On the quiz, the question was: Es ________ hora; ven más tarde.  

My answer was “una mala” and it was marked wrong.  It was supposed to be just “mala”. 

Could please explain why “una mala” is incorrect? It didn’t mention anything in the text about not using the article.  Thanks.

Hello

I do not understand why you use « la » in this sentence?
