If I'm correct, it appears from the quiz that "aquel" and the equivalent "todo aquel que" forms have identical meanings. Would it be worth adding a note in the lesson to clarify that "todo aquel que" is simply another alternative?
If you are also an elderly man? Can you use "¿Cómo estás?" when greeting Gerardo?
Hola,
Is there a lesson which develops this theme, and discusses when the definite article is used with the noun in the body of a sentence - and if there are times when this is not the case?
Thanks. John
Is there a lesson that explains how to pronounce when a word ends with a vowel and the following word beginns with a vowel?
________ afilada hacha. The sharpened axe.HINT: Bear in mind the adjective is in front of the noun
Can I assume La is the correct answer because the adjective is before the noun, but if it is without an adjective then it would be El?
I don't understand why naranja is plural in one example and singular in the other.
Puedes coger las flores naranja del jardín.You can take the orange flowers from the garden.Estas flores naranjas son muy bonitas.These orange flowers are very pretty.I used "mirar" and that was corrected to "ver". Is the difference somewhat the same as the difference between "watch" and "see"?
I'm still a little confused about how to determine which to use - cual or que. In this lesson, you have an example that says:
"En esta tienda hay flores bonitas, ¿cuáles prefieres?
In this shop there are pretty flowers, which ones do you prefer?In a quiz I took here, I used cuales for what seems to be an identical sentence to me and it was marked wrong and said I should use "Qué":
¿________ flores prefiere?Which flowers do you prefer?
Is the difference that cual/cuales are used on their own and not before a noun? So only "which one/s". And If I want to say "which specific-thing" then I use que?
For example:Hay flores. Cuales te gusta?There are flowers. Which ones do you like?versusHay rosas y margaritas. Cual flor te gusta mas?There are roses and daisies. Which flower do you like more?
Is that correct?
Thank you!
On my latest quiz, I was asked to write “Alicia has as much joy as Carmen.” I chose “Alicia tiene tanta alegría como Carmen”, because I understood “tanta” means “as much/as many…as”. My answer was wrong. The correct answer is “Alicia tiene tan alegría como Carmen”. I thought “tan” here meant ”as…as”. Did I misunderstand something from the tan/tanta mini-lessons?
