When to use tener in measurements

Is is possible to explain when to use tener alittle more? I found on the internet that we use tener when talking about an abstract noun or direct object. Is that correct? If so then when do I use mide+measurement etc. ?

Imperfect or indefinite?

Hola,

Los mariscos en Grecia estaban riquísimos

I would have said eran riquísimos - because it's a characteristic.

Why am I wrong? :)

Gracias,

Mi madre se peina el pelo con un cepillo nuevo

Hi,

Could 'el pelo' be removed from the above sentence and still retain the same meaning. I assume that peinarse means to comb one's own hair.

Thanks.

indicative vs subjunctive

Hola Inma,

"Lo de que las películas de acción son muy emocionantes"

would it also de correct to use sean instead, given the informacion already known?

(As you can see, i'm still strangling with the subjunctive.)

masculine pronoun él

Hola Inma,

I can' t understand the use of él here: ¿Que nunca has oído hablar de él?

Sounds like referring to a male person. Why don't you use ello here, since it's about a mountain?

I've seen this stuctrure elsewhere, but still don't understand it. Can you, please, explain?

Un salulo
