Spanish language Q&A Forum

For example:  Nosotros nos reímos siempre con esa película.   We always laugh at that movie.  I would have never known to use "con."  I would have chosen "a."

And, Ustedes se ríen de los niños.  You laugh at the children.  Again, I would have chosen "a" instead of "de."  Why "con" in one sentence and "de" in another?

Will there be lessons on how to choose the correct preposition, or is it a matter of memorising the conjunction with the noun?

I don't want to quibble about details with native teachers but I was puzzled by the tip box at the bottom of this lesson saying "Remember that after poder(conjugated in any tense) you will always find an infinitive. "

I'm unsure what to make of this given that I have not always found an infinitive after poder. The example that immediately came to mind was "No puedo más." Which I stuck out in my mind precisely because  I found it odd that "puedo" was NOT followed by another verb.

Do you want me to pick you up at five?"? (HINT: you=vosotros)

I think the English translations could be modified to be a bit more natural sounding. since you=vosotros is plural English speakers would say "Do you all/yall (local to southern US)/you guys" want me to pick you up.

would people agree with this?

How exactly do we use this as it means "Curiosities" as well!!

I heard some intresting facts about you.

He oído algunos curiosidades de ti.

Is it okay to say this?
