Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hi, I'm really struggling with this one, and there are only two possibilities!  It's "Aquí tienes 20 euro por si……. dinero para un taxi.", with the options of necesitas and necesitaras. The questions says that the speaker thinks there's a low probability of the money being needed.  The correct answer is the imperfect subjunctive, necesitaras.  I suppose that it has to be that because the present indicative is not permissible in this structure, but I don’t know why.

Thanks in advance,

For the last sentence, can't we use 'llevar' to talk about time spent doing something? 

You say it's more common to drop subject pronoun but this is not reflected in the answers

What if I want to use querer in el preterito indefinido, but I don't want it to be interpreted as tried or refused?  Por ejemplo:

Yesterday, I wanted apples, but today I don't.

The action is complete, it requires the preterito indefinido, but I don't want to interpret the sentence as: Yesterday, I tried apples, but today I don't.

'Tis a conundrum for me.

What, if any, are the circumstances in which "si" introduces a clause that is followed by the indicative mode of a verb, rather than the subjunctive mode?

Would it be fair to say that tan is an adjective and tanta (o,as,os) is an adverb?

What does it take to move from A0 to A1? I am allegedly testing at 89.91% at A0 right now and am puzzled why I am not able under to "Choose your focus" to select A1 material? It would seem for goal setting one should know what it takes to move up. Am I missing something?

I am currently taking lessons from a tutor from Latin American who told me that in describing past experiences you would specifically use the past perfecto-He viajado en Mexica instead of the preterito. You contradict this. I wonder if this means you can actually use either and it's just a preference.

It was very interesting to learn about the exams for public sector jobs in Spain. Good range of vocabulary and verb tenses. The native speaker was appropriately paced and clear for B1. Thank you for this exercise.
