Hola

In relation to "después de que", I have questions:

(1) why "hallase" (instead of "se halla") is used in this sentence:

"...es el final de un camino [...] después de que la Guardia Civil hallase en la 'tablet' de la víctima un enigmático mensaje."

(2) what construction is this? what are the grammar rules?

Muchas gracias.

elija las construcciones que mejor se adapten a contexto de la frase: (ir a +infinitivo,pensar +infinitivo, presente, futuro)

1.te Lo juro - siempre ........... a tu lado, incluso dentro de 30 años.

2.Qué........ el viernes, porque no veo que tengas ningún plan concreto.

3.qué edad crees que tiene la sra. nowakowa? creo que .......... unos 45, pero no estoy seguro.

4. en julio .............. a la playa con toda la familia, ya hemos reservado una casa de campo y comprado los biletes.

Hola,

I have a particular interest in art, so I enjoyed doing this exercise. Yet, I have to agree with David that this lesson was possibly more challenging than the AI level. 

I needed to listen to the measurements several times because I was unfamiliar with the use of "veinte coma dos" for example. (Although, I should have guessed, since this is similar to the French use of a comma instead of a decimal point.) After the first measurement, I was able to understand the second one. A good learning experience for me. I am coming back to Spanish, and have a lot to review and much more to learn for the first time.

May I suggest that there is a link to a lesson about numbers with decimals? 

Gracias y Saludos

Andando, que os retrasáis.

Hola, a better english version would be: Come on, because you are behind.

I use the app SpanishDict to help me check myself on certain concepts, especially on conjugations. For this concept, the gerund, the app uses past and present participles. Frankly, I did not receive a whole hell of a lot of instruction when it came to the difference between a participle and a gerund when I was younger but hey, I turned out ok! I have gotten the gist but the two things don't do the same thing  in Spanish as they do in English. I asked a Spanish professor friend of mine about this and he said one of them  (I can't remember which) was the gerund and the other is the participle. Is he correct? I got a questions wrong because I typed one form but it was actually the other. Also, is SpanishDict throwing me off?  

Hola! Would it be possible to have examples with each word? I find it difficult to contextualise without a sentence. Gracias!

How do I say I like someone, rather than I fancy someone? Or indeed that I don't like someone! For example, I like him but I don't fancy him.

we will offer you the most romantic experience ever = os ofreceremos la experiencia romántica jamás vista

In the lesson the structure always includes más or mejor.

Should it be   os ofreceremos la experiencia más romántica jamás vista?

Gracias

Why do we say "ciento por ciento"? Ciento is more than one hundred so shouldn't it only be cien por ciento and cien por cien?

Hola. Solo para que sepan... 

Esta pregunta apareció en el Quiz. Mi cuenta tiene la versión latinoamerica activada, y normalmente no vemos preguntas sobre conjugaciones de vosotros porque no la usamos. 

Es probable que ________ en el intento.It's possible that you'll die trying.(HINT: Using the "vosotros" form, conjugate "morir" in El Presente de Subjuntivo.)
