I see earlier in the thread that you say that "rosado" also means pink.  Does the word "rosado" change to "rosada" with a feminine antecedent, or is it invariable, like "rosa"?

Hello, please would you explain why the verb SER is used in the sentence "la comida del restaurante era mala".  I'm confused which rule is used to trigger SER rather than ESTAR,

Thanks

Your approach to address this subject is confusing. Please consider rewriting the teaching or add a new teaching in ONE lesson addressing all possibilities. Include all possible questions and answers about what date,day, month, year etc.

The examples given seem to be in the preterite, not the subjunctive. Should the title be changed, or the examples? Or am I mixed up?

Sorry, i understand that hacia is sort of correct, only the accent is missing. 

In writing exercise "A perfect day in Granada", I am expected to use simple present tense to talk about the near future plans. And the "ir + verb" structure is not accepted as an alternative correct answer. Why?

Hi.... how do you choose between habia (etc) and hubiera/hubiese (etc).  What are these called? Thanks in advance

Hi there, In English it would be ‘rims of the glasses’ not ‘rim of the glasses’. The sentence you have written for translation uses the singular, which is incorrect. Rims would be in the plural, not singular. In Spanish it appears the singular is used not the plural ‘frota el borde de los vasos’. Is this correct?

Hola Inma,

Having read your reply to David I'm still a bit lost. Many of the phrases were translated in the past tense for example "We lit the fireplace" and "we sat in front of it" etc but all took the pretérito perfecto because they occurred today "Hoy". However, "We loved seeing how the firewood was consumed" was the only phrase given in the pretérito indefinido and expanded in the imperfecto.

There must be something about the phrase that calls for this construction. Can you give me a pointer?

Saludos. John
