Qué provocar el subjuntivo en esta frase:
Tendremos que usar cuanto dinero tengamos. Es muy caro.
?
I always thought "lo" meant "the thing", is this correct in some other context?
In the test, I got this one wrong:
Dame todo ________ tengas en el bolso. Give me everything you have in your handbag.
The correct answer was "lo que," but I thought it was "que," my reason being that I thought "que" referred to the single word "todo." I'm still confused as to why "que" is incorrect, so any clarification would be great! Thanks.
Ella ________ famosa después del anuncio de la tele. She became famous after the advert on the TV.
This example seems to be a consequential change (resulting from being on TV) not a voluntary change. The answer given is hacerse, but volverse seems more adequate if my understanding is correct. But this isn't even listed as a verb of change in the lesson.
Isn't quedarse a better choice than hacerse? I thought hacerse meant a change as a result of a conscious and voluntary effort on the part of a person undergoing the change?
These verbs are so confusing!!!
In one of the quizes engish scentence "After the blow, you didn't remember anything" one is asked to conjugate recordar in the El Pretérito Imperfecto tense. I used "recordaba" but this was marked as incorrect. recordabas was marked as corrrect. Why is the "You formal" conjugation not correct for the above scentence?
In the example: "Su hijo quiere que ustedes lo escuchen."
Would this be translated: Your son wants you to listen to it? As if it is a recording or radio announcement, etc?
Why the use of "lo" for "him" and not "le"?
Thanks,
Kaly
Hola a todos,
‘Da igual cuál sea tu sueño...’
If I’m correct then I understand this sentence to mean, ‘It doesn’t matter what your dream is...’ The latter part of the sentence says, ‘it can be related to your lifestyle’. It’s the part of the sentence that says, ‘...no tiene por qué estar relacionado con trabajo...’, that I’m struggling with. I think I’m right to understand that it means, ‘it doesn’t have to be related with/to work’. I’m just not grasping the use of ‘por que’ here? Please could you explain it to me?
Many thanks

Doesn't rosado also mean pink?
Is there a reason why "and you can see advertising" translates as "es posible encontrar publicidad." Would "y [se] puede ver publicidad be acceptable?
¡Hola! Am new here .I have a problem with the placement of 'usted'.For example ¿Usted tiene nietos?and ¿Tiene Usted nietos? Are both of the sentences correct? When or in what context do you use Usted before the verb or after.
