Spanish language Q&A Forum

Just to say thank you for this great explanation here!  I don’t remember reading this lesson before and I’m really glad I’ve found it now via the Q&A forum. Whenever I consider ‘sino’ I think of the word ‘instead’...  I also didn’t know about ‘sino que’. Great lesson! 

Gracias y saludos.

For Question 8   I answered 'trabaje' believing it to be the correct subjunctive form but it was marked incorrect and 'trabaja' was given as the correct answer.  Would you please explain.  Many thanks.

En la prueba de la lección es escrito:

"Vivo en un séptimo piso," 

¿Por qué no es "el séptimo"? 

Hello,

The last sentence in this quiz confuses me. 

I understood that estar is used with feelings such as “be happy” as it is temporary. But with this “goal” after “para” you have used ser.

Please would you explain why this “to be” is ser?

Thank you.

Let's see -at what moment in time?- you find a good job!

Let's see - at the time that- you find a good job!

As you can see both options work in this context, and I can use lots of examples like this but to understand the difference we need sentences which cannot work as both options

Hi,

I got the following question in a test:

Tuvimos muy buenas experiencias en ________ juventud.

We had very good experiences in our youth.

(HINT: Choose the right word having in mind the ending of the noun)

The two possible answers were twice "nuestra", but one of them is marked wrong when chosen.

I get this message even after I click around for awhile:
