Spanish language Q&A Forum

In the first sentence, is it possible to omit the “de” ? ie, “escoger entre todas las fiestas” ?

If so, does the nuance of the meaning change at all?

Could you also say “Me había regalado un esqueje”?

¿Cuántos euros te quedan en la cartera? -Me quedan ochenta.
How many euros do you have left in your purse? -I have eighty left. 

The above is using preterite translated to present perfect. This is a subject I have some trouble understanding. Wondering if quedar is one of those examples of language that doesn't translate exactly and have to accept it as an expression used and not over think it?

Hi, I have a couple of questions on this exercise:

1) The average temperature was 16 degrees

Kwizbot     La temperatura media fue de 16 grados
You   La temperatura media fue de 16 grados.

You could also say: La temperatura media era de 16 grados 

Hi, I don’t understand how either “fue” and “era” can be used here.

Can you please explain.  Thank you. Nicole

Also would my sentence be acceptable? If not, why not?

2) and it was very nice to stroll down the street.

Kwizbot           y fue muy agradable pasear por la calle.
You                  y fue muy agradable ir de paseo a través la calle.

Is my answer acceptable? and if not, why not?

Thank you.

Nicole

You guys have the "correct" answer as bebe poco. Bebe poco means drink a little. Don't drink a lot would be "no bebas mucho" ...I'm staring to wonder why I'm paying so much money for a Latin Americna course that has consistent errors both in Spanish and English and also teaches variations that are not Latin American Spanish. 

Te ________ hasta que me aburrí y me fui.I was waiting for you until I got bored and left.

Twice now I have entered 'estaba' but the correct answer is shown to be 'estuve'. I thought that when an action is either interrupted or where there is no specific beginning or end, it's the imperfect. Can you please clarify? Thank you.
