I don't remember seeing this structure/ tense of haber + past participle in the previous lessons.

Quiza Miguel no haya aprobado.

Could you please point me in the right direction to find where this is taught?

Thank you.     

Nevermind, I found this a little later in the B1 section to conjugate haber in present subjunctive, then there is a link in that lesson for the present perfect subjunctive for haber.

Why is 'peli' not accepted in place of películas?

Hola,

I just need to understand in this following sentence why 'le explicas' isn't used instead? 

Podrías hablar con la jefa y explicarle la situación.

Is it treated as following poder rather than hablar?

Gracias,

In Latin America we only use the imperfect of querer if we didn't get what we wanted, or if we got what we didn't want.  Otherwise we use the preterite.  Is it the same with the version of Spanish you teach?

Why not "vamos a hacer" in the example. Is there a lesson I missed about this that you can refer me to?

Tu novia y tú habéis estado comprometidos hasta este año.Your girlfriend and you have been engaged until this year.

The meaning is unclear to me — are they no longer engaged?  

Then, in my opinion,  the English should be:

..Your girlfriend and you.were engaged until this year, not have been. But maybe I do not understand what is being expressed in Spanish. In any case, the English sentence is not clear. 

It seems to me that when conditional is used que takes on a similar function as si.

Could we replace que with si?

E.g.

No estaría bien que tuvieses tanto tiempo libre.

No estaría bien si tengas/tuvieras tanto tiempo libre.

I found the speaker very hard to understand.

This page is missing an accent on the "vosotros" ending for -ir verbs:

could you, please, explain why not fue un pintor? The action is completed, ya que está muerto.
