alguno vs algunos, alguna vs algunasThere seem to be a lot of confusion around this subject. especially when using the word 'some.'
Could you please explain the difference illustrated in these two examples.
Tengo muchas postales de Venecia,
¿quieres algunas?
I have many postcards from Venice, do you want some?
He imprimido nuestras fotografías del viaje, ¿quieres ver
alguna?
I have printed the pictures of our
trip, do you want to see some?
And just as an aside, the sentences in English should be separated by either a semi-colon or a period, not a comma. When a comma is used to separate two independent clauses, it's called a comma splice or a run-on sentence. I'm not trying to be a know-it-all. This is in the spirit of having the best grammar.
What is the difference between usage of Cómo and Qué when one is trying to ask questions about 'How'? I have seen both Cómo and Qué used for How?
Whats the best way to differentiate?

I'm confused by the use of third person (instead of first person) of haber. Why is the sentence not "Ultimamente, me he dado por flirtear con mi jefe"?

1. I find it difficult to think in terms of the Imperfect subjunctive in examples which allude to an event in the future, e.g. "Ojalá nosotros viniésemos el año que viene"... Could we also say "Ojalá nosotros vengamos el año que viene"?
2. [A comment rather than a question]: I personally prefer the "-s-" option for constructing the Imperfect Subjunctive because there is less chance of confusing it with a future construction.
I've just moved from A2 to B1, did anyone else find it a huge step? I seem to be being asked questions about tenses that I haven't been taught. I used a different online language class before I came to Kwiziq, and may have already known a lot up to Level A2, has it always been this difficult? :-)
foggy and sunny both are adjectives, the why is it hay niebla and esta soleado?
