¿Podemos decir también: “No hay baile en el mundo más español que un pasodoble”? Entiendo que no es exactamente igual pero significa lo mismo, ¿no?
What’s the reasoning for ruling out el pluscuamperfecto de subjuntivo?
de tantas horas que estuviera trabajandoWhen there is no preceding noun, is there a way to use cuyo, cuya?
Por ejemplo: Whose book is this?
Can you use cuyo here, or must you resort to "¿De quién es este libro?"
Can we also use the perfect future in both situations instead of either condicional simple or condicional perfecto?
In this quiz question you guys translate "having always lived" with the past tense "vivió." This is incorrect. Having always lived would be siempre haber vivido. If that's not what you intended then the English translation should not be "having always lived." Either way the sentence contruction is awkward at best in English.
In the lesson it says convertirse en and hacerse can both be used to talk about a career change with the former indicating a more drastic change. However in the quiz both answers are listed (for a sentence about a career change) but only hacerse is marked as being correct.
I can't speak for Europe or Australia but I can tell you that in the U.S. no one is ever going to say, "We've seen the singer sign autographs to the fans." The correct construction for this verb is to sign autographs FOR fans...not to the fans. If I heard someone say this I would assume they were not a native speaker of English.
Test question uses "Nos impresiona que," with the subjunctive however this lesson referenced for the answer never discusses this grammatical construction. It would be good to add this to the lesson so there is no ambiguity.
