I get that sentir goes before a noun and sentirse before an adjective. But in a test the question was "Yo siento que voy a explotar, comí demasiado."
How do we know whether to use sentir or sentirse in a sentence like this?
The table has two examples of verbs not three.
Hi,
The word order in the above sentence confused me. If the word order was changed to:
¿Tu madre te dio el dinero?
would this change the meaning of the sentence?
If not, is the word order in the original sentence commonly used?
Thanks.

I wrote 'el fin de la semana pasada' and it was corrected to 'el fin de semana pasado'. I can see why the definite article was dispensed with, but 'semana pasado'? Surely the adjectival form of 'pasado/a' is used, rather than the past participle?
I think this also translates correctly;
Adorno el árbol de Navidad para que todos admirarlo mañana.
as an alternative to
Adorno el árbol de Navidad para que todos lo admiren mañana.
Two correct answers as choices in the original question unless hinted to use subjunctive
Just a query.. why is it " tenemos que conocer nuestras emociones" (no "a"), but "para poder controlar a estas" (with the personal "a") in the same sentence referring to the same object? Is this inconsistency typical of conversational speech?
My test question asked for the El Presente Continuo - i’m new to learning Spanish and skipped the question as I thought I didn’t know how to tackle Continuo - only to find that when I selected “Explain” I was directed to the El Presente Progesivo, which I have studied. So are there the two descriptions for this grammar and should your lesson not say El Presente Progesivo or Continuo (for those, like me, who don’t always think outside the box) ?
