I used the imperfect subjuntive - "'Es sorprendente lo lejos que viniera este artista en su carrera" Why gave you used the preterite? I've looked up the phrase Es sorprendente and it does say it will take the subjunctive as is an impersonal phrase.

Es sorprendente lo lejos que este artista llegó en su carrera

Hi,

In the above sentence, could 'la culpa' be replaced with 'culpar'?  This way it would be like English.

Thanks.

Best regards,

Hi,

Quick question about the above sentence.  Could the word order be the same as in English i.e. la tension... se notó mucho?

Best regards,

"-¿A ________ vamos a ver esta noche? -A Luis y Gerardo."

I wrote 'quién' because I thought the questioner wouldn't necessarily know that they would be seeing more than one person. That answer was marked wrong.  Would we normally use the plural when asking about an unknown number of persons?

EDIT: I just looked at the question again and see that there was a hint (which I managed to miss) about which PLURAL to use,  but my question about which we would normally use still stands.

I encountered this in a video:

John es estudiante. Roger es UN estudiante también. 

Why does the article appear when también is added? Is this correct?  If so, what is the explanation?

(Google translate also adds the indefinite article when también is used.)

A esto libro le faltan dos paginas. I found this sentence and him confused why we use a with it

This was an excellent lesson - topical of course, but so easy to follow because of the perfect diction. Gracias. John

Can I use debo instead of debería? For example:
