Are Spanish restaurants really rated in tenedores? I would've thought that it would ha derived from Michelin stars. At least, I always assumed stars was the literal translation of whatever the French is.
HI
I used 'cuando suene la alarma' and was corrected to 'cuando suena la alarma'. I notice that an alternative could be 'cuando suene el despertador' so would my original translation, using the subjunctive with 'la alarma', be ok to use?
Many thanks

In one of the mini quiz questions the answer options gave en not a as the chosen preposition: never have I gone to Paris (it said en Paris, not a Paris). We can use either and they'd be right?
Amable gracias,
actually to pocas (if plural- pacientes)
Here you have: la mitad de los alumnos fueron al viaje.
Half the students went on the trip.But also you gave la mitad de los jóvenes salió de la ciudad
Can we drop en? Would it be correct?
Can we also drop para from: nada dura para toda la vida?
Hello. Would the following construction be acceptable?
"me tengo que poner muy guapa"
Thanks.
"Algunas compradoras se gastan mucho dinero en las rebajas." means...
Why not "Algunas compradoras gastan mucho dinero..." There is no passive voice here; "Some shoppers" is the subject of this sentence.
This problem arises often in my readings of Spanish, and I would love to understand it. Is this a passive, reflexive, or accidental use of "se"?
Another common idiom is "no ver la hora (de)"
¡No veo la hora! - I can't wait!
or
No veo la hora de volver a casa. - I can't wait to return home.
