In the last sentence, the word "ojalá" has the accent in the wrong place.
Greetings everyone!
Why is Después de que has lavado los platos podrás ver un poco la tele
incorrect?
In the example "Usted está pálido", I might be referring to someone looking unwell, correct? However, if I was pointing out that someone is pale because they are very white skinned just by nature and I was describing them to a friend, I would say "El es muy pálido", correct? And use the ser conjugation?
I disagree strongly with this answer. Despite the fact that the future tense can be used for speculation, the norm in conversation is "Qué pasa?" in everyday conversations. At best, both responses should be marked correct. I think it would be well for Kwiziq to center responses on normal, everyday conversations in quizzes rather than obscure literary ones.
Hi,
The above sentence seems to satisfy the requirements for sino: the first part is negative and the second part is a substitution.
Can you please explain why is requires pero and not sino.
Gracias y saludos.

How can I know which form of the ordinal number to use? For example, twelfth has three forms. Are there particular circumstances when one is called for in lieu of another?
Sorry for not writing in Spanish. I´m not there yet.W
1. I notice that in the headings of this subject, the "de" is placed in parentheses and that while most of the examples keep the "de", a couple don't, that is only "antes que" is used. Can you explain why this is so? Is there a grammatical reason or rule?
2. Is there a subtle, nuanced difference between "Despues de que" and "Luego de que", or are they completely interchangeable regarding meaning and use?
3. Is the tense of the subjunctive verb in the subordinate clause (i.e., presente de subjuntivo vs. pretérito imperfecto subjuntivo) determined by the indicative tense in the main clause?
What does that expression mean?
