Doesn't it depend on what the speaker wants to express, whether a subjunctive or indicative of sonar would be used here? Wouldn't "Cuando suena" (indicative) also be a valid way to put it, if the speaker thinks about the event as actually happening?
Because if so, I wouldn't know which answer to pick in the quiz, because they were presented as alternatives.
Thank you!
Hiya,
It seems to me that you can use ito/ecito fairly interchangeably...can you explain whether there is a difference? I believe ecito is more common in Spain than Latin America?
Thanks :) Nat
I know 'para' usually goes in front of verbs in the infinitive form. When does 'por' go in front of verbs in the infinitive form?
I would like to sk when do we use subjuntivo after cuando?
With es que we introduce a cause which is often at the same time a "justification or an excuse" for doing something or having done something.Direct from lesson
What is “As I don’t have any money” if it not a justification?
What is “As I don’t have any money if it is not the cause”
IT POOR TEACHING IF YOU GIVE AMBIGUOUS QUESTIONS AND THE MARK THEM WRONG
I have the same comments about the questions on Alguno
You implied that we should use "Adentrarse en" but "Adentrarse por" was given in the answer without a reference to "Adentrarse en". Which is correct?
In another sentence you advised lit' "we dined on some sandwiches" but "en" was not included in "cenábamos unos bocadillos". A bit confusing, no?
Four examples in the lesson. In the last three ,you could translate con lo que as "despite"but that would not make sense in the first example and seems not to fit the pattern.
No sé cómo no estás agotado con lo que corres.I am surprised you are not exhausted with all the running you do. ¿Vas a salir con lo que llueve?Are you going out despite all that rain? Me sorprende que esté tan delgado con lo que come.I can't believe how thin he is given how much he eats. Con lo que me ha costado este curso y ahora no es válido.After all the effort I made to do this course and now it turns out that it's not valid.« Conjugate "decir" in the Pretérito Perfecto» I did it in the Pretérito Perfecto Simple!
Should we not been informed to use "decir" in the Pretérito Perfecto COMPUESTO?
I think it would also be helpful to have examples with the conjugates that still have 'z', so that we know how it sounds and how to pronounce it correctly.
