Lo+ Adv/Adj + que + verb Que tan /cuan + Adv/ AdjHola Inma:
Are these
phrases interchangeable?
Lo+ Adv/Adj + que + verb
Que tan /cuan + Adv/ Adj
Let's use test question #3 for these purposes:
"¡____
es ese monumento!"
Of course the correct answer is:
"¡Lo feo que es ese monumento!"
With regard to this structure (Lo+ Adv/Adj + que + verb) the
lesson states it is used to express surprise/admiration/disappointment
about how something/someone performs an action or about what someone/something
is like.
The lesson for the
structure (Que tan /cuan + Adv/ Adj) states that it is used to ASK about
the degree or extent of a specific quality. Yet one of the example is
not a question:
"Carlos, muéstrale
a Valentina qué tan bien bailas merengue." The phrase is being used in
regard to a "specific quality," i.e., "... how well... ."
Question:for these purposes, is not ugliness a specific quality.
(a) if so, could we not also use the structure (Que tan /cuan + Adv/ Adj): ¡Qué
tan feo es ese monumento! Thank you
in advance.
Thanks!

1. Cuando is always used with past tenses in the indicative ….
2. If we use past tenses in the subjunctive with Cuando …
There appears to be a direct contradiction above:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In statement #1, it is stated that Cuando must be in the indicative mood
in statement #2, it is stated that Cuando may be in the subjunctive mood.

I am sure that I am missing something that is right before my eyes, but I am going to ask for clarification anyway.
The lesson states that "cualquier is used BEFORE a singular noun."
Further it indicates Cualquiera must be preceded by un or una + and comes AFTER a singlular noun.
Lastly it references the plural of Cualqiera: cualesquiera. This has no requisite precedent (un/una).
Therefore, please explain if there is an exception as apparent in the following:
"La Unión estará de CUALESQUIERA derechos de aduana." This test question has no article precedent (un/una) and CUALESQUIERA appears BEFORE the noun (derechos de aduana); that is, it appears to act more in line with the singular CUALQUIER. So the question is: Is CUALESQUIERA the plural of Cualquier and not the plural of Cualquiera. Thank in advance for your help and response.
Hi all,
I have been given one week free from this website. Will I be automatically charged if I don't actively cancel the 'free 7 days'??

how do i know which ones are irregular verbs? and how do i know theres an accent on some words?
It might be useful to extend the article un poco beyond the values of 1/10. So giving the rules for 1/16, 1/32 and so on.
Why not "Ni que me fueses" it is not as though YOU (2nd familiar), or is another interpretation: "It is not as though I am going to ruin myself"? i.ei a reflexive form.
