Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hello,

I found the following sentence in a Spanish grammar book that I am studying: “Por que es azul el cielo?” 

I thought the sentence would be: “Por que el cielo es azul?” 

What kind of rule does the first sentence fall under and how would I know when to structure my sentences like that? For example, would this only happen with questions?

Muchísimas gracias!

The correct answer is evidently #3, but I don't understand how it's being conjugated. 

Hello,

The above story is very nice. I was wondering if the last line could render a more direct translation. Like, "I think I will take photos to remember this day." Any suggestions.

Hi there, In English it would be ‘rims of the glasses’ not ‘rim of the glasses’. The sentence you have written for translation uses the singular, which is incorrect. Rims would be in the plural, not singular. In Spanish it appears the singular is used not the plural ‘frota el borde de los vasos’. Is this correct?

Hi Inma,

that's interesting. I will check when my grammar books were printed.Thanks for your prompt reply

Hi, can we get translations for the Spanish dictation exercises? That would be an awesome feature. Currently I translate everything by hand. (Don't mean to sound demanding. Just as a suggestion for future implementations maybe. I would probably put the translation on the same page where we get a chance to compare our answer to the one kwizbot expects. Or, if that reveals too much context, at the end of the lesson.)
