Thanks for the explanations here. I am still a little unclear how the last two examples can be Pret Indefinido as no mention/suggestion of timeframe?

Thanks!

Pronunciation of words with accents?

Hola,

It seems like all previously accented words, such as lámpara, pájaro drop the accent, so that pronunciation is on the penultimate syllable - pajarito, lamparita?

Is that the case and are there any exceptions?

Gracias,

después que+infinitive vs después de que+subjunctive

Regarding "After I tried so hard...", couldn't "Despúes de que me esforzara tanto..." be another acceptable answer?

I think this might be more common in written Spanish?

Saludos

Quienes vs queLos fontaneros, ________ vienen esta tarde, van a arreglar el grifo.The plumbers, who are coming this afternoon, are going to fix the tap.

Would my answer (quiénes) be correct if I didn't have the accent? If not, can you explain why not? The correct answer was shown as "que"

different meanings for "seguro"Busca en la estantería. Seguramente estén abajo, no arriba.Look on the shelves. They are probably at the bottom, not at the top. Why is "seguramente" being translated here as "probably" instead of "surely" and where does the word "probablemente" fit into the discussion here?
