Spanish language Q&A Forum

I am curious of the "la he" / "las he" used in a few examples. In what lesson is that discussed? Thank you.

With es que we introduce a cause which is often at the same time a "justification or an excuse" for doing something or having done something.Direct from lesson

What is “As I don’t have any money”  if it not a justification?

What is “As I don’t have any money if it is not the cause”

IT POOR TEACHING IF YOU GIVE AMBIGUOUS QUESTIONS AND THE MARK THEM WRONG   

I have the same comments about the questions on Alguno  

Hello,

I've lost how to get to the page/site where you have the Spanish text on one side, and the translation on the other side.  However, the text is invisible and you can refer to it as needed.  

How do I get those articles?

Thank you.

Hi,

I was comparing two of the sentences above:

Clara se lava los pies cada día

and

Nosotros nos ponemos crema solar en la cara.

In English, both refer to plural objects i.e. her feet and our faces.  In Spanish, los pies but la clara.

I wondered why Spanish refers to 'la clara' rather than 'las claras' as there is more than one subject therefore more than one object.

Thanks.

ln the present tense version of this lesson we learned that we could use the infinitive (sometimes) by dropping the "que". (The "sometimes" was not really explained, but I think one of the users may have clarified it in the comments.) Are we to infer from its omission in this lesson that we cannot similarly use the infinitive when the first clause is in the pretérito? 

Hi Inma

Thanks for your quick response.

By extension can I also combine nunca and tampoco in the same sentence as shown below

Ella no pudo nunca entender tampoco la pregunta.

Ella no pudo entender nunca tampoco la pregunta.

Ella no pudo entender nunca la pregunta tampoco.

Ella nunca pudo entender la pregunta tampoco.
