Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hello!

In the example, ¿"Una iglesia"? ¿Qué es eso?, why is it eso and not esa?

Please explain when we should use "Yo soy " and "Yo estas" - in what contexts??

THank you

hola 

does this literally mean " its official number of inhabitants being xxx personas" ? 

I am confused with the word order:   can you also say " su cifra oficial siendo.xxx.."   ? 

I feel putting " siendo" at the beginning demands a number first . Such as " xxx  siendo su cifra" 

Could you elaborate ? 

Muchas gracias!

¡Hola!

May I ask why is the phrase "Encantado de conocerle/te" is translated as Pleased/Nice "to meet" you in English and not Pleased/Nice "meeting" you, if the preposition "de" is followed by an infinitive verb in this phrase? 

Thanks!

Saludos, Inma and disculpame,

pero, I notice that there are a lot of "p" popping sounds in the audio of "Ropa de Invierno" and remembered hearing that the Spanish alphabet should be able to be pronounced in front of  a candle without blowing it out. How are the lips and tongue placed to pronounce "p" , "t"  and "s" to achieve that goal, please?
