Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hi Inma,

that's interesting. I will check when my grammar books were printed.Thanks for your prompt reply

Your English original is: "the tango is one of the most sensual dances that exists in the world". During the course of the exercise, I felt that "exists" should really be plural, so I put "existen" in my translation answer - and that was accepted as correct. However, your final Spanish version still makes it singular.

Hola Inma,

I do not understand the use of subjunctive here. Can you, please, explain?

Un beso

Ελισάβετ

"Alfredo se quedó tan sorprendido que se puso pálido"

Por qué no es "se puso tan sorprendido"? En la explicación de grammática 'Using convertirse en / ponerse / hacerse / quedarse´, se dice que se debería usar ´quedar´ por los cambios permenantes, y poner por los temporales.

hello, 

I was wondering if there was a way to copy and paste the texts? I realise they are not just "mere" text files as you can click and find out meaning/grammar points etc but it'd help to review them without being online and without any help/hints.

thanks in advance.

This sentence must surely read:

María got cross when Marcos arrived home very late.

Hello, I'm wondering why the subjunctive here is used but then not in the same sentence:

"no la dejes ir y cuida su amistad"

shouldn't it be: "no la dejes ir y cuide su amistad" since both are suggestions?

Thank you
