We can't use the gerund as an adjective...so why is there "casas colgando"? Isn't it the gerund here?

Creo que no   -Wouldn't this call the subjunctive (conozca) NOT the present indicative?

why does "a tan solo 2 minutos de empezar" mean "2 minutes before starting" but "a los 2 minutos de empezar" mean "2 minutes after starting"?.. why does the meaning change because of an added word?

I think it should be noted that there are some additional adverbs which can be combined with de:

cerca (de)

adelante (de)

arriba (de)

Please confirm/update?

In this piece, the future events are expressed using ir, a, and the infinitive. My two-part question is whether, in the circumstances depicted in the piece, the simple future tense and/or the present tense could be used to express the future and under what circumstances each of the three choices is either indicated or preferred.

Muchas gracias de antemano.

Regardless of gender, would you always use un when talking of self?  For instance, Soy un cocinera mala. 

A sentence in the quiz for this lesson says, "Me ofrecieron trabajo...." Should be "Me ofrecieron un trabajo."

Que inocente y romantico!  Mi lo gusta!  Yo espero mas!

The following was a post made 11 months ago.  It seems the problem is not completely fixed Inma as the same thing has just happened to me.

Uh no. So in one lesson you guys said calor was feminine. Even though in three years of Spanish I've always only seen it as masculine. But in fact it can be either according to the RAE. Now in this lesson I marked it as feminine and you guys say I'm wrong. So you guys need to fix this answer or at least be consistent.

Hola A

Yes, that was a mistake on our part and I just fixed it.

If you see something unusual you can send us a message and we will be very happy to sort it out : )
