The question (with no other information provided) is "Drive safely!. One of the options is "Conducir con cuidado".There is another lesson on Requests / Commands / instructions where if I have got it right the infinitive is used without the preopisiton "a".. Why doies it not work in this instance?
Me extraña que él quiera venir al cine con nosotras. (I'm surprised he wants to come to the cinema with us.)

Examples from above:
Mis amigos, que se llaman Luis y Mario, me visitarán mañana. My friends, who are called Luis and Mario, will visit tomorrow.
El director del colegio, el cual trabaja duro, es respetado por todos. The headteacher, who works hard, is respected by everyone.Both of these are "who" examples. Are que and el cual interchangeable for these? Would it also be correct correct to say "que trabaja duro"?
Thank you :)

do you use this verb In the same
way as gustar, encantar etc
