One question was ____________ mucha niebla. Hay or esta. I used esta wrong. In fact mucha is never even translated. So why is it Hay, not esta and why isn’t mucha translated
Voy a perderme el viaje a Cuba a menos que ________ un milagro. Why is the answer " occura" if it follows an adverbial clause. Shouldn't it be in the subjunctive form?
Hola,
I was wondering what the English term is for "madre de día". I have searched online and didn't find anything that would fit well.
I believe it would be "day care worker"?
Thank you and I hope you and yours and the team and their families are all doing well in these difficult times.

How could we get to know that this exact word is a stem changing verb? Isn’t there any recognition for them?
Buenas tardes,

Son una buena distracción durante este tiempo difícil.
¡Gracias Shui!
Hola! Tengo una pregunta sobre la otra traducción para esa frase. Podríamos decir que "más que" significa como "more than" en inglés? Como "Te extraño más que nunca" --> "I miss you more than ever"? O no tengo razón en esa traducción (en inglés)?
Muchísimas gracias y que tenga un buenísimo día!
Like Alan, I was puzzled by the use of the subjunctive in some of your examples, particularly this one:
"Coge un par de plátanos, los que estén más maduros" - because to me it seemed that the speaker had indeed noticed that some of the bananas were riper than others. Maybe it makes sense, though, if s/he had not yet seen them - but in this latter case s/he would probably have said: "Coge un par de plátanos, preferentemente dos que estén más maduros" - [is that correct?]
I can understand the use of the subjunctive when it is referring to the future - e.g., your sentence-example which begins: Quienes lleguen… [because it is not yet known who will reach the top first].
