Why is it espectacular paisaje and not paisaje espectacular?

I would like to ask if this construction is often used in Spanish. Is it in some cases interchangeable with cuando? Can it also mean immediately after? E.g. : al regresar del museo me tumbé en la cama? Al plus infinitive seems to be a very convenient construction.

Hola,

I can already hear myself overthinking, and then checking myself in regards this!

Is a fair way of thinking about this, that:

Imperfect subj - general usage

Present subj - if it feels like it's about to happen

?

Gracias,

Is there a stronger emphasis when using para nada/en absoluto? Thank you

the article  támbien el clima, no?

Why???

I just figured out why I'm missing all the "usted" questions. When I go study verb charts, none of them even list the formal, so I have incorrectly using the second person plural.

But why? I've been told that it's hardly used, and if they don't even include it in the conjugation charts, . . . Really?

Someone else has asked a similar question but in regards to the interchangeability of the tenses, if you were to say "You could have called me the whole evening", can you still say "Podrías/Podías haberme llamado toda la tarde" or do you have to use "Pudiste haberme llamado toda la tarde" because it is in a set time frame now?

Just wondering what triggers the subjunctive in this example sentence from the lesson:

Se trata de que nos reunamos para pasar un buen rato

Thanks.

The last exclamation soujnds like: ¡Eh es estupendo! as though there is something before the es.

The very long EEEeees is a little confusing.  Is this normal?

I used to think Spanish was an easy language, but that was before I actually started learning it earnest.
I am now at 17% in level BI. Although the program reports a steady increase in my confidence, I am hanging onto it by a thread. The difficulty of the language is increasing geometrically.. I don't even want to think about levels B2 and C1
