Spanish language Q&A Forum

I am confused- the present participle in English is used in both the despues de + infinitive and the gerundio.  It’s hard to differentiate between the two in English so it’s guesswork in Spanish…

hi team,

May i clarify on some sentences?

Los paisajes están preciosos en esta estación del año.
I would think to use ´ser ´ as it is characteristic of the autumn season that we are talking about.

En esta época, voy a empezar un proyecto nuevo y voy a ser muy feliz.
For this sentence, i would think to use estar as i will or going to be happy, which sounds like a change in mood.

Hope to clarifies.

Thanks in advance. 

I came across this question in the exercises.

Al profesor le gustaría que los niños ________ en voz alta

I selected the correct answer which was hablara.

However my first intuition was that the answer would be hable.

Hable wasn't one of the options however.

Would hable also be a potential correct answer for this question?

Thank you.

I'd like to ask if any of the students here have had any online classes with a Spanish Tutor? Now that Kwiziq have partnered with LenguaTalk I've been thinking about having some classes, since I really want and need to start speaking this beautiful language. Until now, I've never felt confident about choosing a company since there are so many. 

If anyone one has had any classes: How has your experience been? Is it making, or has it made, a valuable difference in your Spanish language journey? Do you consider it value for money? 

I have looked at some of the teachers introduction videos and they all seem lovely people. It's hard to choose out of them all! 😀

It might be worth rewording the Hint given with "... one of the industries that benefited the most from this new technology" > "... una de las industrias más beneficiadas de esta nueva tecnología".

It reads: "The adjective "new" refers to another or a newly-acquired technology rather than its condition". We were referred to Position of adjectives in Spanish - [reference number 6982]  and I thought your hint implied that 'nueva' was acting to differentiate the noun 'tecnología' [i.e., to distinguish it from others] - rather than to 'emphasise' it.

Please check this question. 

When I did this quiz a few minutes ago, I only had the choice of one answer.   It turns out that there were three correct answers so I received partial credit.  I added it to my notebook to look at the question again, but once again it did not offer the ability to check multiple boxes. 

What is the difference?

Why is there a “th” sound in 19 or is this Castilian pronunciation?
