Is it grammatically acceptable to use 'otra vez' instead of this expression?
e.g. Yo trabajo otra vez en esa tienda.
These verbs all mean "to turn", but are they the same?
Thank u so much
I would like to find the lessons that correlate to the 'bad' areas of my brainmap, to add them to a notebook. In a perfect world, I would just click on the brainmap area to get to them, but as this isn't possible, what's the quickest way to find them please?
¿Enserio güey? Qué tal? Formal?
Hello! Could you differentiate when you might use these two phrases? For example, if the sentence is - I am about to take a shower:
-Estoy a punto de ducharme
-Estoy para ducharme
Are these sentences saying the same thing or is there some nuance that I'm missing out on?
I struggle with translating "the weather is very good." My inclination is to write "el tiempo está muy bueno," because it is acceptable to use está for some weather related expressions per your very helpful guidelines.
Is there any 100% reliable way that you can suggest for when to use hace vs está. Is it a matter of learning off these phrases / expressions and that they are invariable? Is anything to do with "temperature, cold, hot and weather" always expressed using hace?
Finally if I wanted to say "In Rome, there is good weather today." Could I say "En Roma hay buen tiempo hoy?" or is this invariably expressed using hace?" Thanks John
Hello,
I found myself in quite a bit of confusion, and this may/may not be due to the fact that the same grammatical "term" has different names but are/may be the same thing.
I have spent hours trying to decipher these various terms and wonder if you could please tell me
1) if any are the same thing and
2) what possible synonyms/terms could we come across in both Spanish and English for each of them?
3) a short explanation for each (and/or referral to a lesson)
Terms in question:
Pasiva Refleja
The Passive Se
Impersonal Se (pronoun “one”/impersonal "you")
Se impersonal refleja
Thank you for your help.

The question is:
Qué ________ por ese chico?What do you feel for that guy?
The answer given was sientes. However for me a possible answer to the question could be "I feel happy for him" which translates (hopefully) into Me siento feliz para él. So should the answer to your question not the reflexive "te sientes"
