The example 'Sierra Nevada se encuentra en la provincia de Granada.' seems to me to suggest passive 'se' rather than reflexive. Perhaps because I tend to translate it as 'is found' (passive). Is that an accurate translation?
Also, I've got in the habit of using the Latin American ubicar and estar ubicado. Are these considered incorrect in Spain?
Saludos
If the construction starts with “si prefieres X....” isn’t “si preferías X...” also correct?
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.
Hi,
Prior to this lesson I was reading about the subjuntive case of verbs. It seems that in the sentence above, the subjunctive case has been used. It does not appear to satisfy the WEIRDO requirements.
Can you please tell me why 'ella se visite' has been used and not 'ella se visita'?
Thanks.

¿Bajo las AFFIRMATIVE COMMANDS, no debería ser "tráelos"?
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.
"las personas que van al club son latinas". Las "n" al fin de "van" y "son" suena como "vang" y "song". estan correcto pronunciacion?
hello,
I was wondering if there was a way to copy and paste the texts? I realise they are not just "mere" text files as you can click and find out meaning/grammar points etc but it'd help to review them without being online and without any help/hints.
thanks in advance.
