I can't seem to get it right.
No me queda mucho dinero ________ tengo para dos cervezas más.
How come this should be 'pero'. I thought it was a substitute. First clause is negative and replaced by another, positive clause, hence I thought 'sino que'. Can one please point me to the critical part that would make me understand the difference? I feel so dumb.
Thank you in advance!
Hi,
Could you please add a lesson covering how to use the term (un) ... por ciento?
Thank you,
Best,

Is there a rule for determining the Spanish ending for someone that does a profession? For example, a climber is escalador, and a traveler is viajero. Why is one ending in -or and the other -ero?
Hi, the article makes no reference to “me recuerda” without either an “a” or a “que”, but several of the questions require this answer. John suggested a year ago that the article account for this situation:
“For the sake of completeness I would make a small change.
Something “reminds me of” OR “is similar to”: Do not omit the “a” [from Recordar + a]
Something “is brought to mind”: Omit the “a” [from Recordar + a].
Something reminds me that: Use Recordar + que”
If John is correct, could you please make this change because as it stands the article seems incomplete. Thanks!
the answer is using las tartas que son...
but why cant we use this-¡Qué exquisito son las tartas de Marta!for the last part of the notes, it says deber conjugated in indefinitivo does not mean the same thing. Am I right to say that this structure is only for present tense of saying something should have been done? how do we say such meaning in past tense? something should had been done?
How would you say he/she has?
Hablo inglés perfectamente desde los trece años. I speak perfect English since the age of 13. (since I was 13)
This sounds very Spanglish to me. Surely it's I have spoken perfect English since the age of 13
