Spanish language Q&A Forum

For those that might be interested...

The adaptation of the famous novel 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' (Cien Años de Soledad) by Gabriel García Márquez has finally arrived on Netflix! 

Another Spanish film that I found very interesting is 'The Red Virgin' (La Virgen Roja) depicting the life of the famous Spanish writer Hildegart Rodríguez. This film is on Amazon Prime. 

Both great films for practising our listening skills. 😀

This left me somewhat down hearted.  I thought I was further along than my terrible score!  I guess I'll keep trying in the hopes I won't do this bad in the future.  :(

nos sentamos en una banqueta, de lo más felices mientras la música....

In the lesson on emphasis all the examples use a masculine singular adjective ( I put de lo más contento ) but was marked wrong. Is it really wrong?

Gracias

How do we get lessons to clear from our listing.  I seem to do the lesson, get both test questions correct, but the lesson stays in my list.'

Thanks.

Así como en los deportes, donde necesitamos practicar hasta obtenermos mejores resultados, también es así con los idiomas. Devemos practicar hasta alcanzarnos nuestro objetivo que es hablar, charlar, comunicarnos. Así como en los deportes, debemos siempre mantener nuestra motivácion hacia nuestro objetivo.

the English translation of "la puedes cocinar a la plancha" is rendered as "you can cook it on the plancha".  Is "plancha" an English word? I have never heard it before and I don't know what it means.  I looked it up and it says "flat top grill".  I'm not even sure what that is.  Is "plancha" a word that is used in Brittish English?

Why is con used in this sentence: yo sueno con vivir in Cuba? Co means with right?

I have a question about the sentence: "Le dare el dinero que le debo por si acaso se me olivida despues."  If I understand, this sentence expresses the idea that the speaker feels that it is fairly likely that they will forget.  If they thought that it was unlikely that they would forget, then the conditional clause would say "..se me olvidara".  So myy question is: What if the main clause were in el preterito indefinido (Le di el dinero...)?  Would the conditional clause still need to be "...se me olvidara"?  If the speaker considers the condition in the subordinate clause to be less probable, the conditional clause would use the imperfecto do subjunctivo (...se me olividara) whether the main clause refers to a future action or a past action?  Is this correct?Sorry, I don't know how to type accents.

Could a correct translation option also be "En la madrugada"?
