and pretérito perfecto compuesto (twice) in the same lesson for the same verb form. Is it possible to use just one.
Also, in my experience, ha invitado has usually been translated as has invited rather than invited/ ha visto as has seen rather than saw. So, I would then translate había visto as had seen. This is very confusing. Help. K
Hola a todos,
No hay muchas carreteras ________ conducir despacio. There are not many roads where one can drive slowly.HINT: ¿Dónde or donde?
Although the required answer here is ‘donde’, I instinctively want to write ‘donde se puede’. So it’s ok to leave out the ‘se puede’= ‘one can’ and just use the infinitive, in this instance ‘conducir’? I appreciate that this quiz is only to determine whether to use ‘donde’ or ‘dónde’ but it just read oddly to me.
Gracias :)
Hi there Inma,
would you say that this structure is more formal than 'mientras' ?
Espero que todo vaya bien contigo,

Hello,
I'm just wondering about the use of the reflexive comprarse. It is used in this example:
En esta tienda pueden comprarse unas joyas muy bonitas.You can buy very nice jewels in this shop
Why is the reflexive used here, and in general when do we use comprarse instead of comprar?
Thanks!Marcos
Hello, please can you explain why the above sentence is using a subjunctive conjunction! As far as I was a aware, repetition, description, ifs, mental states and obligations use subjunctives, but I do not see anything like that here.
I had never heard that before.So, I can retract my question.
In this exercise you give the statement: "Me gustas mucho." In all the info at this site I only see gusta and gustan used (singular and plural) which I understand. Could you please explain this form of guitar?
