Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hi there, 

I’ve seen this use of que a few times but can’t find any explanations for the rules.

For example- Hay tantas cosas que aprender. 

Hay muchísimas cosas que hacer.

I know que can be used as to/than in comparisons but I don’t understand the use of que here.

What is the difference between deber in El pretérito indefinido + El infinitivo (compuesto) and deber in El condicional simple + El infinitivo compuesto? Both lessons say they mean Should have 

Good morning Kwiziq team, 

As always I love your content. 

I’m not sure if this is covered in another lesson, if so feel free to direct me to it! Just sometimes struggle to remember when the verb in the yo form of the preterite indefinido for “ir” verbs end in í or e. 

I think it’s verbs like introducir that threw me off; is it because that one is an irregular verb ending in ducir? Just that you highlight the consonant change, but not that the ending changes too? 

Kind regards, 

Fran 

It seems that the llevar construction from B1 Spanish is more flexible?

For example if I want to say "He had been working with his dad for a few months", then I could write:

  Él llevó trabajando con su papá por unos meses.

  Por unos meses él llevó trabajando con su papá. 

  Él llevó trabajando por unos meses con su papá. 

Far more forgiving grammatically than the hacía constructions.

Hola Inma,

I really enjoyed this 'reader'. I'm a big Rosalía fan! 

I'm just curious about the 'artistas plásticos' mentioned in this article. Is this simply describing artists that create art from plastic? 

Gracias :)

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

THank you

Quiz statement:  Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero esta nos aprobaba fácilmente.

My translation: That teacher explained things very well but this one passed us easily.

Quiz translation: That teacher explained things very well but with this one we passed [the subject] easily.

How I would translate that back into Spanish: Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero, con esta, aprobamos fácilmente.

The translation of the second clause seems to change the focus, with the subject being the teacher (passing the students easily). I realize it’s subtle but do you think it makes a difference? Did the second teacher go easy on the students or did they just connect better with her teaching?
