Hola,
Would it be possible to substitute Concurso and Recordar in the paragraph?
Kind Regards

Hola,
I don't understand how 'debido a que' is a wrong answer in the test for this question?
Ella dejó a su marido ________ su mal humor y sus celos.She left her husband because of his bad temper and jealousy.
I guess it's because it's a combination of nouns (humor, celos) without any further embellishment, but it's confused me because of the explanation referring to a noun, rather than nouns plural:
"If we use debido a que, it can never be followed just by a noun, it needs a phrase."
Gracias,
Do the grammar rules for "nunca" here also apply for "tampoco". Consider the following four sentences.
Ella no pudo entender tampoco la pregunta.
Ella no pudo entender la pregunta tampoco.
Ella no pudo tampoco entender la pregunta.
Ella tampoco pudo entender la pregunta.
In all the examples, “no” comes before the verb, but it’s not explained in the lesson. Is it always required?
Hola,
Just wanna clarify the translated answer for "I almost fainted". The correct answer given in the exercise is "¡Casi me desmayé!". On the lesson on 'Using por poco/casi/un poco más y + present tense for nearly/almost', says the verb should be conjugated in El Presente so my answer was "Casi me desmayo" which was marked as incorrect. Are there other considerations we should note with this construction?
Thanks,
Benhur
Hola,
I have just completed a test with the above sentence to be completed with an adverb.
I do not have a problem with the adverb but with this part of the sentence:
... no nos quedan más ...
Can you please explain how the above equals 'we have no more' in English? I wonder why it is quedan and not quedamos.
Many thanks for you help.
Saludos,
Colin
I thought I understood that an accent is used when cuándo is a question but now It’s also used when it isn’t. So when do we use cuando without an accent? I can’t work it out.
I've come across an online site that made a statement about Spanish adjectives of nationality that end in an accented e, i.e., é. However after poring through my various resources, I haven't been able to find such an adjective that ends in é, with an accent. I believe the English nationality of Burkina Faso is Burkinabé, but that is a noun. I need adjectives.
Do you have any suggestions? I hope you can assist me in this matter.
I look forward to contributing to the answers that others have, too.
Thank you in advance.

Hi, just a small error. Both examples are the same.
Fui a su casa para hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.
Here, we could have used the preposition "a"with the same intention:
Fui a su casa a hablar con él.I went to his house to talk to him.The translation of the sentence is missing. Why is there hubieras after si?
