Spanish language Q&A Forum

My husband is from Costa Rica 

Mi duda tiene que ver con el título "Madre" (junto con Padre, Hermano, Hermana), por ejemplo, en el caso de referirnos a "(la) Madre Teresa de Calcutta". ¿Es correcto utilizar el artículo con los títulos religiosos aparte de los títulos "San" y "Santa"? Muchas gracias de antemano.

Hola Inma,

I couldn't find the link for the lesson you referred to in your reply, despite doing a search here.

"Do we use "iba" to show intention?"

Could you please give me the link.  And Happy New Year!

Thank you,

Nicole

I don't understand the difference between hace  and hay when talking about the weather.   Can anyone explain the difference to me?

Kwizbot:  y el código de vestimenta dice que

I: y dice el código de vestimenta que

How much less preferable is my response to Kwibot's here?

Apologies, as this is a bit outside the lesson. Can the infinitive ever stand alone as a command in Spanish (without the a + form) in either the negative or positive? I was under the impression that it could, but I don’t specifically remember learning to do so, and I might be transferring from another language I’ve studied. Thanks!

Hi,

In the above sentence, could 'la culpa' be replaced with 'culpar'?  This way it would be like English.

Thanks.

Best regards,

Colin

Just wondering, why is it muchas veces (as opposed to muchos veces - I thought masc. was the default)? Is it to match with nosotras? 

Thanks in advance! :)

The construction "... te permitirá conocer personas" reminded me that the personal "a" is inserted only if the object of the verb is a known human being - specifically identified .. Thank you !

[I am sure this is mentioned somewhere in one of your lessons, is it?]
