All these verbs are present tense + present subjunctive. Can I use the same construction with the conditional, in those cases where we are “softening” a request?
Such as: “Yo prefería que regreses más pronto.”
Or does that need a different structure? Thank you!
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,
the english in this sentence comes across as a bit strange/odd. You never say" I become" etc in english .You would say "I will become" or "I would become"
I will become a vegetarian while my sister becomes a vegan
I will become a vegetarian as long as my sister becomes a vegan
I would become a vegetarian as long as/only if my sister becomes a vegan.
i have read somewhere that perfect tense could be used too
for example, he estudiado desde hace 6 meses. = estudio desde hace 6 meses.
is this piece of information wrong? when can we use perfect tense then?
The quiz translated this as "She is looking forward to starting her trip to Honduras." Wouldn't that be "Ella está deseando empezar su viaje a Honduras."?
Just wondering if the heading should be "CAERSE" instead of "CAER" as all the examples are reflexive. This confused me for a moment.
Also, there's an interesting use of "traer" here in Mexico. If we only have a large bill to pay with at a small store and we want to say "Do you have change?", we don't say "Tienes cambio?" Instead we say "Traes cambio?"
I don’t understand what info is being asked for here. Is it if she is willing to meet the parents?
Thank you, Shirley.
In the lesson, I answered the question, Maria, ___ es bastante seria normalmente cantó en público ayer, with ,"la que". It was marked incorrect, with "que" being shown as correct. I thought they were interchange.
Can someone please tell me the difference between salió and fue when saying something like "it went well".
When putting this in Spanish dict it gives numerous examples but no indication as to which to use when and why. ?
Thank you
