Mi hermano tiene ________ perros.
My brother has many dogs.
In this quiz I put "muchos" however I got it wrong as it said the correct answer is "muchas". Which word is feminine in this sentence?
In the examples of "¿Quién prepara la fiesta a Sofía?" and "Nosotros les preparamos la cena a nuestros invitados."
Why use 'a' instead of 'para' (for) or 'por' (on behalf of)?

¡Me encantó esto!

Sometimes the answers require the feminine 'a' but there isn't any context in the question as to the gender of the subject.
Unless I'm mistaken, which is highly probable :)
cheers

The translation of the sentence is missing. Why is there hubieras after si?
I'm still a little confused about how to determine which to use - cual or que. In this lesson, you have an example that says:
"En esta tienda hay flores bonitas, ¿cuáles prefieres?
In this shop there are pretty flowers, which ones do you prefer?In a quiz I took here, I used cuales for what seems to be an identical sentence to me and it was marked wrong and said I should use "Qué":
¿________ flores prefiere?Which flowers do you prefer?
Is the difference that cual/cuales are used on their own and not before a noun? So only "which one/s". And If I want to say "which specific-thing" then I use que?
For example:Hay flores. Cuales te gusta?There are flowers. Which ones do you like?versusHay rosas y margaritas. Cual flor te gusta mas?There are roses and daisies. Which flower do you like more?
Is that correct?
Thank you!
Is it necessary to use definite article? What difference would it make if we dropped la?
In the test, I got this one wrong:
Dame todo ________ tengas en el bolso. Give me everything you have in your handbag.
The correct answer was "lo que," but I thought it was "que," my reason being that I thought "que" referred to the single word "todo." I'm still confused as to why "que" is incorrect, so any clarification would be great! Thanks.
In the example sentence. "Nos felicitaron porque habíamos aprobado todo con una nota alta," why is haber in the imperfect? I think of passing or failing something as something that happens in a moment -- you receive your grade and either it is pass or fail -- not as an ongoing state of being. Could one say "hubimos aprobado" or would that be wrong?
