Spanish language Q&A Forum

I am having an extremely hard time telling the difference between "how" I feel and "what" I feel (so I know when to use "sentirse" and when not to use it.) 

Also, I don't know how to tell what is an adjective and what is a noun. There don't seem to be standard endings for adjectives.  (orgulloso, alegre, frustrado, etc.)

Hola Inma,

I can’t work out why whether the information is already known to the parties concerned, that the subjunctive is used [in the pretérito imperfecto].

Also why using the pretérito indefinido would indicate that the information is new information.

In other words what is the logic behind this when forming the subjunctive? I completely get the idea of a hypothetical idea requiring the subjunctive, but the aspect of whether the information is already familiar to the people concerned, is confusing me. Saludos. John

why does it show the numbers instead of spelling out the numbers?  

"Sobre" was given as a hint for "on" one page prior to where it was used (on the last line of text).

Hello, this is a more advanced topic but I've come back to review.

Why do we use the subjunctive in this statement:

Ustedes pueden comprar lo que quieran.

Thanks.

Could algunos be used instead of unos? And also could '¡Qué espectacular!' Be used instead of 'Era espectacular'?

Hi Inma,

Thanks a million this is really interesting and insightful to the use of Spanish. Saludos. John

I don't understand what the following excerpt from the lesson is supposed to mean:

Can you please clarify what this means in prose rather than abreviated notation?
