I am totally confused on this one. Does the adverb agree with the noun?
I translated "I gave some flowers to your mother" as "Yo le di unas flores a tu madre". It was marked wrong and I can't work out why. I've looked at a couple of other websites and I still don't understand what I've got wrong. One site says that the "le" has to be used. The given answer didn't have "le" in it. Even if the "le" is optional, is it actually incorrect to use it, or have I got it all wrong? Thanks.
Dear Kwizteam,
I noticed that this construction places a comma before 'que' but not before 'porque'. In English, if the subordinate clause follows the independent clause, there is no comma. In Spanish, does this depend on the type of subordinate conjunction used?
Regards.
Bueno
Porque usar « A »
Porque usar « le » , no « la » (esta femina)??
I thought general experiences were talked about in the Imperfect. The time markers given in this lesson match up with https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/learn/theme/746448.
And also this lesson seems to indicate using the Imperfect:
Using the imperfect tense in Spanish to express habits or repeated actions in the past (El Pretérito Imperfecto)
I have only now noticed that I read 'brought' for 'bought', but the rest of my question stands.
why is Tú vuelves del trabajo a las cinco not translated into you're returning from job at 5
In the sentence "Creo que habrás pensando como yo" I believe that it should be " habrás pensado" or "habrás estado pensando".
Isn't it?
Thank you in advance!
Best regards

No aceptaba que su amigo tuviera una serpiente en casa.
She couldn't accept her friend having a snake at home.
Why does this not translate to:
"She didn't accept that her friend had a snake at home."
In other words, why isn't "had" the translation for "tuviera" instead of "having"?
