Why does the use the preterite perfect rather than the simple preterite?
In the example Nosotros podemos salir antes del trabajo temprano hoy, wouldn't it mean the same thing to say Nosotros podemos salir del trabajo temprano hoy.
In the quiz to find out which level you are, I was marked wrong for putting "hay" instead of "tiene" in the question about the city having a pool. Why is it giving me two different answers now?
Falta la DE, ¿no?
It seems I need to add more detail, so:
The drop-down menu for this question on forming the plural of nouns that end in -e gives four possible answers, none of which includes “de” after “especies”.
I just took a quiz that included this (correct) answer: "ya sea salado o dulce" to complete the sentence "Me encanta la cocina francesa...." Why doesn't the 1st adjective change to agree in gender with "cocina"? I picked it anyway, as there was no option with "salada" (and it was the best available option) but it still struck me as incorrect.
I noticed that "lunch" was turned into a noun in the English translation. That really is not necessary because every English speaker is familiar with "lunch" being used as a verb. It is not common, but not improper or unknown. If Spanish speakers think of it as a verb, then it can only help learners to think of it as a verb as well, no?
In the example:
Nuestra ayuda está dirigida a jóvenes sin empleo. Estas son personas que han acabado sus estudios y no han encontrado trabajo.
why is it "Estas" and not "Estos"? Doesn't this pronoun need to agree with "jóvenes" rather than "personas"?
A esto libro le faltan dos paginas. I found this sentence and him confused why we use a with it
Could you please elaborate more on which condition to use feminine or masculine? For example, why not a lo francés, since it's a style, and why not a ciegos, but a ciegas? Thank you!
never mind, I see what I did wrong (i do not see a way to delete a question)
