It seems to me that when conditional is used que takes on a similar function as si.

Could we replace que with si?

E.g.

No estaría bien que tuvieses tanto tiempo libre.

No estaría bien si tengas/tuvieras tanto tiempo libre.

Hi, I'm, hopinh you can help out with this query -

In this sentence: "¡La casa va a estar preciosa!" we have 'estar' used, why isn't this 'está', or 'estaría', or 'estará'?

Thanks!

One of the examples sentences is:

 Me alegro de que hayas viajado a diferentes países.

Is the “de” obligatory  or may  it be omitted?

ie,  “Me alegro que hayas...”

Do salud and sanidad both mean health. How do you choose which one to use?

I would like to see more short videos like this with the transcription to help train our ear to decipher to run on words that  are difficult to decipher when natives speak naturally.  

Creo que además de frases coloquiales, es lo que más me falta en nivel C1

Gracias

Would you explain more clearly when one does or does not use "de" in this form? As far as I can extrapolate, if an infinitive is to follow, we use "de" but otherwise no?

Or is it optional in any instance?

Hi!

So I used caer instead of colgar because I remembered caer being used as "to suspend" somewhere. Does it sound odd/wrong to use it like that?

Thank you!

Edit after I found the answer: Caer is INTRANSITIVE, can't use it like that. I found examples of how it works when used as "hang", but your thoughts are always appreciated!

Can I switch the two parts of the sentence and keep the basic structure of each clause and keep the meaning?  For example, instead of "Haciendo unos muebles de madera me corté con la sierra.", could I say:  "Me corté con la sierra haciendo unos muebles de madera."

When nationalities that end in "e" are plural, when is an "s" added? Or is it never added?
