I thought that Habrian is in the future, but I have seen it used many times as not in the future. Are these two interchangeable?
You wrote : "¡Cómo no, por supuesto!" but isn't it the same thing two times? What is the difference between "cómo no" and "por supuesto"?
Hello! I always get mixed up on when to use unos vs algunos vs varios. Can you either give a super-quick review or point me to a resource that contrasts these forms? Thanks so much!
I was taught podrías means could when talking about the future and podía means could when talking about the past. Is this wrong?
I wonder if there is an error in this question:
Este hotel, ________ inauguración fue ayer, va a recibir muchos turistas alemanes.
I think that the answer should be cuyo (because hotel is a masculine noun), but the Kwiziq answer on the test question is cuya. Is this a mistake on Kwiziq's part, or am I not understanding something?
I would have thought that A had similar structure to B, as in action#1 was interrupted by action#2:
A: Te ________ hasta que me aburrí y me fui.
I was waiting for you until I got bored and left
B: Ella estaba lavándose el pelo cuando él llegó.
She was washing her hair when he arrived.
But the answer to A was “estuve esperando” not “estaba esperando.”
Does it mean that in B the woman didn’t stop washing her hair even the man arrived, but in A the waiting totally completed?
In the A0 lesson "Expressing dates in Spanish" the definite article is used: "El 7 de febrero de 1986", but in this lesson it isn't: "Hoy es 25 de septiembre". Is the definite article only used when the date isn't preceded by "ser"?
Aunque tengo una casa muy lujosa, prefiero la vuestra. I'm confused. Where does 'vuestro' come from? What happened to 'tuyo' and 'suyo'?
when would you use soler (imperfect) + verb rather than the actual imperfect of the verb? For example why in the first example above wouldnt you say
yo cantaba
instead of Yo solía cantar
