when we want to say a scary movie, or a funny movie etc, do we always use 'de' + whatever noun of the category?

for example, scary movie = pelicular de terror, pelicular de miedo. rather than pelicular asustado = scary in adjective forms rather than nouns.

"Sería tan romántico que mas las diera" is a B2 construction.

Does “pienso que no” = “no pienso” = “no lo pienso”?  Thanks.

Hi,

The link to the above takes you to a page with the sub-heading 'Spanish Present Perfect'.

I thought 'preterite' was always related to the past as it says in the text on that page. So, why is it present perfect in Spanish?

Thanks.

Just took the weekly quiz on 'El futbolin' and got everything right just by using my instinct and what sounded right to my ear. And, though I had read and kwizzed this lesson before, it is a very different matter to use that knowledge without being able to scroll up and read the explanation as needed. 

So, thank you for this lesson which explains clearly the difference between muy and mucho. Another review was very helpful. 

 Why is it  hubo fuegos artificiales when fireworks is plural? Why would it not be hubieron fuegos artificiales? 

This word seems to change all the time! I had the wrong answer so next time it came up in a question I put the answer it gave me last time and it said wrong and gave the answer as the one I chose in the first place!  This has happened several times. How and why does this word change?

"El anuncio decía que" shouldn't we use "Indefinido" here, as the action we're talking about was done yesterday. We are not describing here?
