Hola Inma,
I am much more “comfortable” with the alternative “se debe haber retrasado.” Is it not counterintuitive to add the reflexive pronoun to the verb haber?
Invariably we never put anything between the two verbs when using the pretérito perfecto but in this case we do. Is there a particular explanation / logic? I must be missing something!

Why is "unas técnicas básicas" wrong?
Does “pienso que no” = “no pienso” = “no lo pienso”? Thanks.
Hola Silvia / Inma,
I came across the phrase above with a meaning of "at sunrise, first light." The word "amanezca" appears to be 1st / 3rd person subjunctive. Can you help me understand this construction please?
Saludos. John
El articulo explica como paso el dia, porque ce celebra, y como. Una cosa es que se origino en Mesoamerica prehispanica. Otra cosa es que celebran para recordar la familia muerta. Ce celebra dos dias. El primer dia se acen altars, o visitan el cementerio. El segundo dia se dice que la familia muerta regresa por un dia. En final, celebran con comida, musica, photos, altars, y ofrendas.
Yo no celebro Dia de los Muertos. Pero en mi opinion es dia importante. Yo tengo amigos que celebran. Es dificil perder familia y por eso ce celebra. Yo aprendi de mis amigos que tambien es dia para que se junten la familia y celebrar que estan juntos. En final, es dia bueno, es dia importante, y es dia hermoso.
Puedo decir "con tal de que aspiren a un buen futoro en vez de con tal de aspirar?

Este video es muy informativo. Muchas gracias.
Which one is correct:
Tres es más que dos.
Tres es más de dos.
Greetings, I have a question about the sentence “Mientras, los otros niños hacíamos una fila…” If the subject is los otros niños, should the verbs in this sentence be conjugated in the third person plural? Hacían? Entraban? There is no indication that the narrator is including himself in the group of kids waiting in line. Please help me understand. Thank you.
From what I understand, statements of emotion almost always trigger the subjunctive. Are there exceptions for past events with cuando? "I was happy that he came" gives imperfect subjunctive whereas "I was happy when he came" gives preterite.
If this is a rule, is it more general than cuando?
