Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hola,

I have not seen this type of construction before which i think translates as "Settling here ........"  Is it just something common in Spanish that we learn as we go along or is there a lesson about it?

Another point .... would it be possible to get translations of the weekly lessons underneath the final transcript when the exercise is finished, so that we can check our understanding?

In this lesson it said to translate “Dad’s computer”. So I entered “La computadora de papá”. It said that is incorrect and should be “El ordenador de papá”. Can you help me understand why computadora would not be correct? Thank you!

i have two questions for this one first why there is an a after venir is it coz its 

equivalent to be able to ?

second why five is las not la five is a number singular thx in advance for the support gracias

Hola Inma,

"Cuando le conocí", is this a case of leísmo?. 

My answer was lo conocí and it's been marked wrong.

Could you, please, explain?

Saludos

I got this correct in the quiz b/c I followed the hint but I don't understand the use of Imperfecto over Indefinido here if there is a specific time period in the past identified. Why trabajaba rather than trabajo? (I know the hint says "used to" but the question still stands.) Thank you!

En el año 2010, usted ________ para una escuela primaria.In 2010, you used to work for a primary school.HINT: Conjugate "trabajar" in El Pretérito Imperfecto.

Why can't I use Ustedes - 'ven'

Why are numbers written with the feminine article when telling time "es la una y media", but written with the masculine article when writing the date, "mi cumpleaños es el uno/primero de enero"?

Wouldn't "rosas" be the correct form of the adjective to go with "lámparas"?

One of the links above (Ser or Estar?) talks about DOCTOR CLIF. DOCTOR for "ser" includes description, origin, character, time, occupation, and RELATIONSHIP. Is that wrong or am I missing something?
