Can you add Chao or Ciao for Good bye?

Gracias Silvia for reminding me to find time to read this classic!

I have had 2 copies of this wonderful novel ready and waiting to be read for some time now; one English copy and the other in Spanish.

For anyone that may be interested, Netflix are showing the adaptation of this fabulous story- it was released on the 17th I believe. It's my Netflix film for this weekend :))

There Will be and There is going to be are identical in meaning. Is that the same for habrá and va a haber. Google translate doesn’t seem to make a distinction. 

In the third sentence, all the words in the list of nouns have a definite article in front of them, except for "tiranía." Why is that? It seems inconsistent.

Is there a specific quiz related to this topic that I can practice? How do I access that?

Diga a los señores Moreno y Ruiz que pueden pasar a mi despacho.

Is it incorrect to use "puedan" rather than "pueden" in this example sentence?

Thanks in advance,

Kaly
