Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hola Foro y los expertos

Tengo una pregunta a propósito de la part de la oración  'pero he de insistir en que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Por qué, usamos 'en' aquí.  No es  possible decirlo igualmente sin 'en', 'pero he de insistir que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Why is the present subjunctive not more correct for the following sentence? The lesson says it should be the imperfect subjunctive...but I think this is incorrect; this would require it be "you have had" rather than "you have"

"Maybe you have lots of friends in England"

In the question:

They will be very cold when they go to Scotland next December.

It seems to me that this is a quite certain plan, like one of the examples here: ‘ Cuando voy de vacaciones a Tenerife me hospedo en el hotel Olimpia.’

So I thought the answer should be in the indicative:

Tendrán mucho frío cuando irán a Escocia el próximo diciembre.

But the correct answer was in the subjunctive:

Tendrán mucho frío cuando vayan a Escocia el próximo diciembre.

Why is that? Is it a mistake?

hola,

both tiempo and estacion are used for season, why?

Also, entonces and asi are bothed used to say "so".  When do you use each?

Finnally for yo suelo, what verb is suelo conjugated from to mean usually?

gracias

In English, we also say that a book is "heavy reading" when the subject matter is academic or complicated and detailed.  A subtle difference between heavy reading and difficult to read.  A book might be difficult to read if it is badly written.  Not quite the same as "heavy reading"

Does the same subtle difference exist in Spanish?

hola,

how do you know if a verb should be reflexive or not? Why is there both sentar and sentarse?

Oh I'm trying so hard, but I'll be 103 years old before I understand whether to use the imperfect or the simple past!
