la cosa que, cosa queMe cancelaron el viaje, cosa que me fastidió mucho.
They cancelled my trip, which annoyed me a lot.
this sentence uses cosa que in the middle of the sentence
the notes state otherwise using la cosa que and it says only for beginning of the sentence not middle
am i right to conclude, cosa que = lo que in the middle of the sentence, whereas la cosa que = lo que in the beginning of the sentence.
can i also further conclude below
Le encantan los documentales de historia, cosa que/que/lo que/lo cual (yo) encuentro aburrido = I find [the fact] that she loves history documentaries boring.
cosa que/que/lo que/lo cual are all interchangeable and replacement with no change in the meaning in the middle of the sentence?
la cosa que/lo que for the beginning of the sentence.
I incorrectly answered "para" because there was a specific time of day in the sentence. I am thinking that was not correct if this translates (loosely) as "sometime in the morning I eat breakfast at 9am". So a/en/por would be correct for this?
Pitting your last two points against each other, should this be "Y email?" or "E email?"
I read elsewhere that when quedar is used to express the idea of ending up in an emotional or physical state, it does not require reflexive pronoun. Is this accurate ? So if I have a scenario of 2 persons fighting and the one of them left a mark on the second and it left him standing still from the shock. Do we use ‘se queda inmóvil’ or ‘queda inmóvil’ ?
In this note, it says quedar is for emphasising the result of an action, quedarse is for expressing the result of a change. What difference is there? It seems all the same. Example, va a quedarse contento con esta noticia. She is going to be happy with this news. ¡Laura va a quedarse pasmada con la noticia!M
I am not clear on when to use which term. In the passage, there is "el esfuerzo medioambiental" and also "modelo ambiental". Are they interchangeable? Thanks.
Here is another example of the nonuse of an article in Spanish that I do not understand. "The city was an environmental model" is "la ciudad fue modelo ambiental" not "un modelo ambiental". I do not understand why there is no indefinite article like there is in English.
I wish there were a lesson explaining how the use of articles in Spanish differs from English. For example, "he has a good heart" is "tiene buen corazon" not "un buen corazon". Another example, "I will be in the first row" is "estare en primera fila" and not "en la primera fila".

la cosa que/lo que for the beginning of the sentence.
to summarise some of the info provided in the comments.
am i right to say the below:
Le encantan los documentales de historia, que/lo que/lo cual (yo) encuentro aburrido = I find [the fact] that she loves history documentaries boring.
Le encantan los documentales de historia, que/los que/los cuales (yo) encuentro aburridoS (agreement of the adjective is necessary here) = I find history documentaries boring.
meaning to say, que = lo que = lo cual are interchangeable and replaceable with no change in meaning. same for que = los que = los cuales ?
Hoy invito yo, así que escoged ________ os guste.
This sentence has subjunctive so am i right to say it means = choose whatever you like?
if it means = whatever you like, then why is cual or cuales wrong for this sentence?
thanks
