Just wanted to ask if it would be possible to cover 'aguantar' at some point when you have time? It's a word that I often remember hearing as a young child. I think it'd be a good word to cover as it seems that it's often used in Spanish.

Gracias y saludos :)

Use of por qué as a conjunction

No entiendo por qué el Rey hizo eso. Él lo hizo porque quiso

Unless the Spanish have a definition of "conjunction" that differs from the one I've always understood, both "por qué" and
"porque" are both being used as conjunctions in those sentences. It is the sense of their use which differs.

Can these two uses be distinguished in spoken Spanish and if so, how?

Is that correct?

Looks like English translation in the second example is wrong.h

How do we distinguish the two uses of "tanto...como"

This is probably an easy question, but is there a simple way to tell when "tanto...como" means "both" and when it means "the same as"? Thanks.

unas gafas elegantes.. and it does not translate, what is the rule
