I know ser means ‘to be’ in terms of characteristics and estar means ‘to be’ in temporary sense or in terms of location but why does this exercise use estar for ‘to be clear’ and ‘is cloudy’ but ser for ‘can be unstable’?
Test question uses "Nos impresiona que," with the subjunctive however this lesson referenced for the answer never discusses this grammatical construction. It would be good to add this to the lesson so there is no ambiguity.
It is ok to respond back with "Y tu tambien" when someone says to me in Spanish "Que tengas un buen fin de semana."
‘We had to play football without kneepads’ - in English we say shin pads (UK) or shin guards (US). Knee pads are what you use for skating. SpanishDict is telling me shin guards are ‘espinilleras’, but I have no knowledge about about which is correct/if one word may be used in a certain country and another elsewhere etc
The quizzes have a tendency to ask good and interesting questions that aren’t in the lessons. Could you please add a note that “el mayor/menor” is an exception and that we don’t say “el más menor/mayor”. Thanks. Otherwise a great lesson!
Good lesson. I like this concept of partitives.
Can we use "uno de" in place of "alguno de" to mean "one of"? Or is "alguno" only used in this context in Spanish?
Also, is there a list of partitives that use "de", such as "cada uno de" or "pocos de"?
Thanks!
No seas tonto. It feels like we are describing a temporary condition. Why is ser used?
Hi, I used the word "trancón" for traffic jam, but it was not recognized as a correct alternative. How come?
Isn't there an exception for locations of events? For example in: "¿Dónde es la reunión?"
