Hola Inma,
In the example: "Esta tarde ayudo a mi madre en el jardín", the point in time when the statement is occurring seems important. Can it not be "esta tarde" at the time of the statement, which would make it the continuous present (even though that tense is not being used, just as the future tense is not being used)? Or is the present tense simply not used in this way?
What is the difference between pocos and cuantos

1) I wrote "quince" instead of "15". This was regarded wrong but I think it should be accepted.
2) From the way the text is read, it is not always easy to discern it it is followed by a comma or a point.
3) It was not possible to get the spanish inverted exclamation sign by pressing long on the exclamation sign?

I didn’t find any examples for the use of these verbs adónde/adonde/dónde/donde when expressing wonderment. Could you explain a bit, please.
I am trying to get my head around your example of probability needing the future tense:
Estoy muy ocupada así que llegaré sobre las doce o doce y media.
I am very busy so I might arrive at about twelve or twelve thirty….My question is on this basis how on earth anyone would know if I would arrive then or not, as surely if I use the future tense I’m saying I WILL arrive, not MIGHT ???Buenos Dias,
Please, help to understand, once for all, these "nasty" Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns:
Ex: Laura se lo compro = Laura bought it for her. Can also be Laura bought it for him? How can we make the difference? Also, the English sentence can be translated in Spanis like "Laura se la compro?" Thanks for help, Michael Aldea.
