A question in the quiz said “estoy viendo un documental en la tele”. Why would this not be mirando en lugar de viendo?

If the direct object of a verb is an animal, but not a pet or cherished animal, for example a tiger, is the personal a still indicated?

Busco a un tigre. or,

Busco un tigre.

Hi,

Does the section headed "Bear in mind that their regular superlative forms can also be used" mean that there are two ways to say "The youngest of my brothers is called Juan:

    El menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.

and

   El más menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.

Thanks

Hello,

It seems to me this is more of a literal translation? 

Does it meant rather: "You went the wrong way."?

Or: "You walked on the wrong side of the road." ?

Thank you for your consideration.

Can I say menos tiempo instead of menos? Can I also say se tarda mucho menos tiempo (it takes much less time)?

the 'tu' form of ganar in the subjunctive is gana not ganes.  It is only ganes in the negative.

Hola Inma,

"Lo de que las películas de acción son muy emocionantes"

would it also de correct to use sean instead, given the informacion already known?

(As you can see, i'm still strangling with the subjunctive.)

Saludos

Hi

Pelicula (singular) in the above has an accent in the first sentence but not in the third sentence. Is there a reason for this?

Thanks

Geraldine

In the first sample sentence above, what is the function of 'lo'? There are 4 such examples on this page.
