Hello, I'm wondering why the subjunctive here is used but then not in the same sentence:
"no la dejes ir y cuida su amistad"
shouldn't it be: "no la dejes ir y cuide su amistad" since both are suggestions?
Thank you
Regarding complex grammatical explanations: flowcharts and decision trees would be incredibly helpful adjuncts to the explanations given. The human brain responds more easily to visual representations of complex logic than it does to textual explanations. That is why they are so prominently used in science and mathematics. Just sayin'

I've been saying "bolsa" for a year and a half but I just saw a lesson example that used "bolso." A search showed many instances of both. Is it a regional difference, or is there a grammatical rule in play?
When should I use the past progressive rather than the imperfect tense
Este es el título del uno de mis lecciones bajo de sujeto, ¨Conjugate ver in El Pretérito Perfecto (present perfect)".
He lo tratado pero, me parece que es muy difícil a preguntar una pregunta en el forum en una moda que consigue para mi una respuesta.
Gracias, Jaime
A recent Kwiziq question asked:
¡Camarero! ________ dos vasos de agua, por favor.Waiter! Can we have two glasses of water please?HINT: Conjugate "traer" in the usted form of El Presente Subjuntivo
The correct answer was : traiga
However, I learned to ask for things by attaching the I.O.P to the end of the imperative/subjunctive, for instance: 'Tráeme una taza de café' or, more politely, 'Pongame una taza de café'.
So I wonder if in this question 'tráiganos' might not be more appropriate, or sound more natural?
I, too, would like an answer to Nicole's question, please.
Rafael y Julio son unos chicos muy deportistas? could you please explain why not Rafael y Julio son unos chicos muy deportistes? since Rafael y julio are boys ?
Can I suspend my membership in the French course until I am ready to resume?
Thank you, Inma
Hola
I'm confused as to why this lesson exists. Doesn't this one Using se debe/n and se puede/n + infinitive to say you must / you can (passive) already cover it??
thanks
