From the examples given it's hard to tell why a native speaker would choose one of these adverbs in preference to another one in any given situation. Is there any guidance on this? Why would I choose 'igual' over 'lo mismo', for example, if they both mean the same thing?
¿Cuándo ________ vosotras que se habían casado?When did you find out that they had got married?(HINT: Conjugate "saber" in Pretérito indefinido)
To enjoy? Do you mean disfrutar?
Desgustar is not in my dictionary.
This is another quiz where one or more answers are correct is not noted.
I notice that Spanish often inserts el/la where English doesn't. Like "como la observación, la intuición y la lógica." whereas in English one writes "like observation, tuition, and logic."
Is there a rule for this?
I see quite some time has been devoted to this subject. The first time I read the hairdresser example, the English struck me as quite wrong. I would add my two cents as follows:
If I went to the hairdresser, I'd spend a lot of money or If I went (had gone) to the hairdresser, I would have spent a lot of money.
Those seem to me to be the simplest way to correct it because one can't correctly say I would spent.

Hola,
In the sentence "The hotel has a very big swimming pool surrounded by grass", shouldn't 'cuenta con' be an acceptable alternative to 'tiene'?
Gracias,
Benhur
Just wondering if we can use the preterite tense for questions or if the present perfect tense is the only option. There are two examples of questions, both using the present perfect tense: ¿Tú has montado en globo? ¿Has jugado al golf alguna vez?
Thanks.
