When a feminine singular noun starts with a vowel (or vowel sound) do we still use 'la' (or 'una'), or is there a rule similar to that in English for a / an?

What is the difference between Tengo catarro and tengo resfriado pls?

Hola,

I think "jugo de naranja y zanahoria" should be also an accepted answer because they seem to use the word "jugo" in Latin America.

Thanks,
Daria.

You wrote: "With verbs that imply movement we can use all the forms:", with example ¿Adónde vas Manuel?

Does than mean that "Adonde vas Manuel" and "donde vas Manuel"  are correct? The examples only have the forms  adónde and dónde

Why is there an article in front of frío in the second instance?

Hola,

I don't know if a reply occurred in some other area, but I was wondering if you could give a bit more info

to help me understand this.  I still have trouble with this particular example.

My earlier question was following  your reply for : "Why the imperfect is used and not the preterit in:"puesto que era mi cumpleaños " 

(I sent this same request on my Questions and Answers page, and didn't see the reply there,)

Muchas gracias, Nicole

I had to look up and remind myself about the two possible derivatives of "bendecir" - i.e. bendecido [participle] and bendito [adjective]. Clarification was necessary because I remembered that the future tense of "bendecir" is 'regular' - i.e. "bendeciré" - [unlike decir > diré].

Another 'peculiar' change which might be worth mentioning in this lesson is the way in which "pudrir" becomes "podrido" when forming its past participle.

Of possible interest too, is the pair "corrompido" [participle] as opposed to "corrupto" [adjective]; (we never see "corroto").
