Foggy and sunny are both adjectives so why does one use hay and one use está?

Hay niebla

Está soleado,

Gracias

Shouldn’t the last sentence of the second paragraph have “de” between “trasladar” and “el corte?”

Hola,

Trying to understand why this isn't an indicative? Seems more of a statement of fact? (appreciate that I guess that this is pointing to future occasions they will wake the dog - seems a very grey area!) 

It is odd that the children wake up the dog so early.

Es extraño que los niños despierten al perro tan temprano.

Gracias,

Why do the pronouns that refer to the grandparents collectively switch between "les" and "los" in the text? For example: "Los visito siempre que puedo y nunca les he visto tan felices en mi vida." 

Great exercise, it would be even better if the suggested words to check before starting the exercise could be viewed translated directly here without the need to go to extra vocabulary book/web. Thanks

Hi I'm trying to learn Spanish and I came across a sentence which caused my learning app and my native Spanish speaking  partner to disagree:

The original sentence from the learning app: "Si puede, deles una explicacion a sus alumnos"

My partner say it's wrong, and it should be "Si puede, dele una explicacion a sus alumnos"

Since it refers to giving an explanation which is singular and not plural.

To my understanding, it should be plural because it's given to the students.

Which one is the right one??

Thanks! 

Hello, thanks for this excellent tool for learning Spanish!

My question is about the use of pero in a second sentence.  Should this be explained as a second clause rather than a second sentence since the examples use one sentence?

Huir -> Huyendo

Seguir -> Siguiendo

Shouldn't it be Siguyendo?

Hi.  Studying this lesson reminded me that I searched on your site lessons that would help with sentence building, and how that is done in Spanish (above the usual introduction to making sentence.) I could not find any despite several difference search words.  I also looked through the grammar, but saw no heading for that subject.

 So could you point me in the right direction:

1- How to make sentences and their correct /various word order, and how interchangeable /or not the word order is, on a more advanced level than : subject, verb, object.

2-  And also how the same meaning can be conveyed in different ways. 

Thank you. Nicole
