Spanish language Q&A Forum

hi. Im a litttle confused as to when we use "fui" to represent the past, and say "i was" vs "estuve" vs "era" .... To say, for instance, "i was en Mexico" I can say both "estuve en Mexico" and "fui en Mexico", whats the actual difference between the two...

thank you, Elaine

Hola, I see most of the reflective verb examples are habitual sentences, such as "todas las mananas", "todos los dias", 'siempre" etc. Is this usually how a reflective verb would be used? at least in the beginner's context? Gracias

Por lo general el video es bueno pero la presentadora no hace caso a la pronunciación. No pedi diferenciar unas palabras.

La transcripción tiene un error en la última oración : "....comentar Éste...".

"Do you have a cellphone?" (formal) = "Tiene usted un celular".

Yes yes yes, I know it's more common to have "Usted tiene" but that is also more ambiguous of a statement vs a question. "Tiene usted" leaves no question of it AND it's presented in the lesson as possible and I was still marked wrong saying I should have just used "Tiene". That is a real basic mistake for a website that I trust to teach me more Spanish than I have learned on Duolingo, especially when Inma already stated below apparently you added it to correct answers a year ago.

Hola Inma,

1) My answer was "disfrutamos de esta cena maravillosa" but it was marked wrong.

Can you, please, explain when the verb disfrutar needs the "de"?

2) "y hizo una salsa de guacamole muy rica": I'm not sure, but I thing it sould be e hizo, or am I wrong?

Un saludo

why is this not accepted as correct when A mí me molesta.... is?

The hint says write number in digits but the answer is given as the word.
