Dear Inma / Silvia,

A small thank you - It was great to see the example of the English subjunctive at the beginning of this lesson because it really helped everything to fall into place.

Saludos. John

Hola Inma,

The sentence below appears to have the incorrect emphases; it appears as an example of desde que being used in the subjunctive, with something that will happen in the future. That said, I think you could retain the existing emphases as well because if I understand the lesson correctly, the subjunctive would also apply to hasta que.

Mañana, desde que aterrices hasta que llegues al hotel habrán pasado un par de horas.

Saludos. John

The hint: "to be excited = emocionarse" suggested to me that "Me emociono saber que Zoe..." would be the right form, but no - the correct answer was:"Me emociona saber que Zoe ..."

I have the impression that both versions are correct, are they?

He pintado dos habitaciones.

Why is "Quiero un abrigo rosado" wrong? Don't rosa and rosado mean the same thing?

In the lesson on haber plus participio it has leídos not leído.

Hola todos

I have been told that it is very common to use 'quedar' instead of 'estar' to indicate where a place is, for instance 'Mi casa queda cerca del parque.'

I have read quedar used in this way, and have seen it in some dictionaries. However, I don't think I've ever heard anyone say it to me, which is odd as I must have used sentences where it might come up hundreds of times on the many occasions I've been navigating neighbourhoods during visits to Spain. Could it be more common in Latin American Spanish?

Can you clarify?

Saludos

Answered this 3 times with correct que but each time indicates a wrong answer as qué. I think there is a glitch

"All yo-go verbs in Spanish, i.e verbs where the yo form ends in -go in El Presente, take that same stem to form El Presente de Subjuntivo and keep it all the way through the conjugation. However, the El Presente de Subjuntivo endings are the same as regular -er and -ir verbs endings."
