In the example given:
"¿Tienes algún problema? No, pero gracias por preguntar."
Why is it not "algúnas" to match the gender of problema?
I'm thinking they should sound the same in both peninsular and Latin American Spanish. If that's true then why the spelling change?
Can anda and venga be used the same way? Come on!
I have also heard " anda anda!" Is that just for emphasis?
These statements actually aren’t disagreements at all. They are contrasts or comparisons. Disagreement with someone saying “I am X” would be replying with something like “No, you are not X.” Replying by saying “I am not X” is not disagreeing, but rather comparing yourself to the first speaker.
It is frustrating that this program isn't teaching me something before quizzing me on it, or helping me understand why it's wrong. Am I missing something, or is the program missing something? If it's me, what am I missing?
The lesson says "Remember that when you use this structure with an adjective, the adjective must agree with the subject." but none of the examples actually demonstrate this. It might be a good idea to throw in some feminine and plural adjective examples to more explicitly demonstrate the agreement!
I chose the Latin American option rather than the Spanish, but I am often hearing a lisp spoken such as, "Laura y Sarah son francesas." The "c" in francesas is spoken with a lisp sound, which is not the way it would be pronounced in Latin America.
Gracias !
In the reading exercise Espiritu Navideño, the woman is described as espíritu mágico de Navidad. How come, the ending is not changed to match the feminine "mujer"?
In the example:
"Los que hayan reservado con antelación pueden ir a esa ventanilla"
why is it 'hayan' and not 'han'?
