Spanish language Q&A Forum

How would I say someone else is doing something to another person and not themselves? Like if my mom is a hair stylist and she's combing someone else's hair.  Like in "Mi madre se peina el pelo con un cepillo nuevo." Would I need to put something like "el pelo de la mujer" or with the personal a like "el pelo a la mujer" 

Hola,

In the sentence above, which was in a test today, is 'la' necessary?  I would have thought that it would be 'de educación'.

By the way, I cannot type accents in this dialogue box, I cut and paste from my word processor.  Is there a way to type accents in here?

Also another answer is mixed up:

Prefiero ________ armario porque es más grande. because it is bigger.)I prefer that wardrobe (over there(HINT: The speaker is referring to a wardrobe that is far away from the speaker and the listener.)

Gracias y saludos,

Colin

I have answered two questions which I was marked incorrect.

Hor acio

When do you and when you don't use el/la/los/las?

I'm totally confused by this and always end up making the wrong choice. 

In the last section of the translation, "between the practical, incredulity and mysticism" is translated as "entre lo práctico, la incredulidad y el misticismo."  I don't understand why the práctico gets lo as it's article (other than because the hint said so).  Can you explain, please.  Thanks

Hi Inma,

Tanto el café como el té me sientan mal. Why sentir in the subjunctive?
