It's interesting to note that these two tense usages occur in English as well, e.g.
-- Oh, Albert's not at home. -- No, he was playing in a rugby match today, didn't he tell you?
-- What was the name, sir?
-- What were you asking for this painting?
-- Where were you going tomorrow?
Are you going to the theatre with her? : ¿Tú vas a ir ___ al teatro?
Using preposition con followed by a pronoun to say with me, you, him, her, us, you (plural), them
The correct answer was "con ellos" but shouldn't it be "con ella" (which wasn't an option.
The professor gives the certificate TO ME, looks like a indirect object pronoun ie me te le nos os les. Yet the lesson uses mi an adjectival pronoun?? In the test the answer requires Ella a subject pronoun as do some of the examples.
In the reflexive pronoun chart in this lesson I think you should also include se to be used for yourself (singular formal) and also yourselves (plural formal).
I am having trouble with these. I was thinking "con el que", "para el que", etc meant "... which" as in 5124
and that "con lo que" and "de lo que", etc. meant "... what", as in 5125.
But then I missed some questions because I used "con el que" instead of the correct "con lo que". Can you help me out?
Thanks
In English there is a difference between 'stop smoking' as in put down the cigarette your smoking right now and 'stop to smoke' as in in quit smoking for good. Anything like that in Spanish?
Hi,
The translation given for the above sentence is 'They are saving money in order to buy a house.'
Money is not mentioned in the Spanish sentence, so has it been included in the translation for completeness or because it is inferred because something is being bought?
On an unrelated topic, could you please explain why all Spanish greetings such as 'Buenos Dias' are in the plural?
I am really enjoying learning Spanish using this site. Others I have tried do not have the European pronuciation and sometimes use different words.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,

I am curious of the "la he" / "las he" used in a few examples. In what lesson is that discussed? Thank you.
