Spanish language Q&A Forum

I don't know how to access the audio.  Please advise.

There seem be so many ways to say this in Spanish: "fuimos a dar un paseo" is one I hear a lot.  "Hemos paseado" (or "hemos caminado") translates as "we have walked" rather than "went for,.".   It's very confusing! 

I wrote 'el fin de la semana pasada' and it was corrected to 'el fin de semana pasado'.  I can see why the definite article was dispensed with, but 'semana pasado'?  Surely the adjectival form of 'pasado/a' is used, rather than the past participle?

It only says "We can also form the superlative of some adverbs with the suffix -ísimo", but not which ones these are. 

There's something on cerca & lejos, but how about other irregular adverbs (those having an independant form, like bien)?

It seems these would not have any -ísimo from, as I neither found "lo hiciste bienísimo" nor "lo hiciste buenísimo", but solely "lo hiciste muy bien".

Te apasionan los Ferrari pero no has conducido ninguno.

My question really isn't about "ninguno;" I love the explanation!

It's about "los Ferrari." Are brand names always singular, even when you're talking about all or more than one of them? For example, are these correct?

Me encantan los Toyota. Is the article masculine because "coche" is masculine and Toyotas are cars?

Me encantan mis/los Nikes. Is the article plural because "shoes" are always plural, or is it singular because Nike is a brand name?

Thank you!

Some verbs in the preterite indefinido have tildes and some don't. Is there a rule for when they are used or not used, as i'm finding it difficult to remember when to use them?
