Hola! Yo tengo una pregunta- agua is feminine but the sentence says “el agua es clara”. Is this an exception? Are there others like this? Thank you!
It should be: "El armario estará listo para ser usado todo el invierno."
Also any high-school Spanish teacher would wince at the sight of all those misplaced commas.
A suggestion from a native Spanish speaker: get your reading practice from somewhere else.
A very enjoyable read-along exercise and then well worth browsing through to check new vocab. I loved the café chorreado! So, Inma now has the nickname, "Sara".
Hola,
Is it always hace falta, or again is it subject dependent?
If I wanted to say 'we need to sand the furniture' do we say 'hacen falta lijar los muebles' as muebles is plural?
Gracias,
I don't understand the construction of the sentence: You do not have my permission to talk to me this way
“no te consiento que me hables así” surely implies: I do not permit you to talk to me this way
Is this wrong:
Tú no tienes mi permiso para hablar conmigo así.
In a children's story, people named a baby tapir "Tapete". Does the name carry a meaning of affection by changing the word tapir and making it sound cute? Or do they just want to name the baby tapir with the meaning of the word "mat"? Thank you!

One of the sentences top practise this lesson is "Instrumentos africanos han sido tocados por los músicos". A lot of Spaniards told me to rather not place the subject first when it has no article, as it wouldn't sound good in there opinion. Could I alternatively say "han sido tocados instrumentos africanos ...", or doesn't this work?
In the sample question "Cuando vuelva Carlos, dile que quiero hablar con él." why is "quiero" not in the subjunctive tense? Didn't we learn in a different lesson than if a verb comes after 'que' that switches subject that it should be subjunctive?
