You give:- Ha venido quejandose hasta hoy = He's been complaining until today.    Then:- Sospecho que desde aquel dia viene ocultamdome...- he's been hiding...

Same tense in English but different in Spanish.  Why, please?

In the sample question "Cuando vuelva Carlos, dile que quiero hablar con él." why is "quiero" not in the subjunctive tense? Didn't we learn in a different lesson than if a verb comes after 'que' that switches subject that it should be subjunctive? 

Hola,

In one of the tests it mentions 'a lo Marilyn Monroe'. I was thinking this was a feminine example, so was expecting to see 'a la Marilyn...'

Could you expand on that, please?

Gracias,

The lesson suggests that the use of adónde vs dónde is dependant on whether a verb of movement  follows. 

However, in a Kwiziq question "Luis me dijo _______ había ido de vacaciones" we are only given the options donde or dónde. But 'ir' seems to suggest adónde (Luis told me to where he went).

So, is it that 'ir' is in past perfect here (and that the movement is finished) that 'adónde' is not a valid option in this case? 

Saludos

I've learned to say "Me gusta la carne" for I like meat. Here is says "Me gusta comprar carne, pescado y verduras" with no definite articles. I can't work out why, can anyone help?

Hi, I have a question concerning this text: 

"at the beginning of the 17th century,"

a comienzos del siglo XVII, 

why is the plural used here and not the singular? 

What rules/lesson pertain to this?

Thank you, NIcole

Could "Personally" also be translated as "Para mi"?
