The word "ambiente" was new to me. I'm surprised that for a beginner lesson/practice that a "hint" wouldn't have been given for this word which I wouldn't consider a part of basic vocabulary for beginners.
Hi, translators are saying it should be:
Qué día tan maravilloso
but
Qué terrible accidente
Can you explain the different placement of the adjective in these examples please? And why "qué accidente tan terrible" doesnt' seem to be an option?
Thanks,

Hello, I don’t understand why it is “le ayudó” rather than “lo ayudó” in the final sentence. To me, it is saying she helped him, so “him” is a direct object which would suggest “lo”. Thanks for your help. Tony
Huir -> Huyendo
Seguir -> Siguiendo
Shouldn't it be Siguyendo?
For example
Ellos no saben cuándo van a llegar
Ellos no saben que lleguen?
Yo no sé cuándo van a llegar
Yo no sé que lleguen/llegarán?
They all have an element of doubt in which would suggest the subjunctive but there is a rule here that I am not understanding fully!
Thanks

In the example "Estas mesas, las cuales he comprado recientemente, son de madera.
These tables, which I bought recently, are made of wood." the "I bought" is not conjugated. Comprado is in the present tense, is this correct or should it be comprade - I bought in past tenseI still can't get it right when to use the definite article. La televisión or just televisión? Television in general? It's always a 50-50 guess for me.
Hola Inma,
Ayer me cobraron de más en ese bar, _conque_______ dudo mucho que vuelva a ir.
They overcharged me in that bar yesterday, so I very much doubt I will return.
This sentence is from a test a took here. Dudo and vuelva have the same subject, yo. Is there a rule for this? I thought, in order to use the subjunctive, there must be different subjects. Can you, please, explain?Muchas gracias

El padre le da la receta a la señorita. Senorita was the indirect object noun, why add to “le” in front of the da？And,：Qué le hace el médico al enfermo? Enfermo was also the indirect object noun, why add to “le”?
And, ：Le receta el médico al enfermo unas pastillas? Enfermo was also the indirect object noun, why add to “le”?
