As someone else pointed out this is a bad translation of English. In English it would be said that, "It's a good thing I left Miguel!" I don't buy the British translation that was proposed as I have literally never heard that.
I don't understand how to determine when to use "de" versus "sobre" for the word "about". Las chicas están hablando de mí >> about --> de
Yo soy honesto. No puedo decir lo mismo sobre ti. >> about -->sobre
Thank you.
Is there a subtle difference implied between "asi" and "así que", or is the difference not so subtle?
Hi, In the last sentence, could you replace tal vez etc with a lo mejor, and if so, would this then take the indicative or still the subjunctive?
Many thanks

Hello,
I was just wondering about this today, how to tell when to use the subjunctive or the future. Both have this element of uncertainly - to a certain degree - haven't happened as yet and both deal with maybes, etc. The future is never really set in stone.
For example : I will go out when the sun shines. I think that in Spanish this could be said in either future or subjunctive, i.e.:
Saldré cuando brille el sol.
Saldré cuando brillará el sol.
Can you help me better understand this.
Thank you.

Nosotros estamos arriba. (We are arrived) . The answer is estamos instead somos. I thought estamos only use in place. Can you please give an example.
Hola, no entiendo estas frases:
1) justo de lo que se trata,
2) es de ver que todos somos distintos
Entiendo la idea de la paradoja--que la igualdad es importante pero, al mismo tiempo, somos individuales--pero no puedo traducir las frases.
Una suposición:
1) in fairness to what we are dealing with
2) one must see that
