In this construction, can the "se" also go at the end of the infinitive, like this:
No debe fumarse.
?
Thanks!
Why isn't "las" used to modify both bicicletas and cintas de correr? I thought bicycles and treadmills were a general class of equipment, and not a specific bike or a specific treadmill. Thank you.
Hola Inma,
".... usar las tarjetas, ..... prevenir contagios"
can you, please, explain why do you use the article in the first case but not in the second? I thought articles in Spanish are used when talking in general, which apply in both cases (I think).
Muchas gracias

The European pronunciation is really weird-sounding. "Z" pronounced as "f," "c" pronounced as "th," and "vodka" sounded like "votha." And this is the first time I heard a "g" pronounced as it was in "ginebra." I guess I need to do more of these listening exercises! Or is it too much trouble to include a Latin American version?
Esperemos que el futoro le traiga muchos más éxitos. Shouldn't it be Esperamos que etc, as Esperar triggers the subjunctive mode for the second clause in the sentence?
Kind regards,
Kevin
Hi. There is an exact same question in the quiz as there is in this lesson. When I put the correct answer from this lesson, it was marked as wrong.
In a test, I got the question "Yo _____ mis manos en el agua". The verb was sumergir. Is it more correct to say "mis manos" here than "las manos" and if so, why? Are there certain verbs you are more likely to or would always use the possessive rather than definite?
Hola,
As a matter of interest, what would the difference in meaning be if 'por' were substituted for 'para'.
The online translator I use says that they are the same.
Gracias.

Hello, in last weeks B1 written weekend workout, this sentence was presented as the correct answer
"y dejé el resto de mis cosas guardadas en la taquilla"
I am trying to work out the verb and tense for "guardadas", but it has defeated me. I know it's somthing to do with "guardar" but the configuration isn't familiar to me.
Thanks
This is another one incorrectly graded. My answer was criáis, which is the correct Vosotros translation, yet is marked wrong.
