Este se negó a entregárselo. What does Este mean here? I know it means usually means “this”.
Thanks a lot,

Hola,
¿Qué es la diferencia de significado entre "Alguien no tiene que hacer algo" y "Alguien no tiene por qué hacer algo"? Y ¿por qué no se use "por que", sino "por qué" con el acento?
Gracias! (I hope that all made sense!)
Hola,
I think "jugo de naranja y zanahoria" should be also an accepted answer because they seem to use the word "jugo" in Latin America.
Thanks,
Daria.
I have read the answer given to Ralph. At the very least this is a VERY bad example to give in a lesson. The answer demonstrates that either tense could be used depending on the message the writer wishes to convey.
Hello! I always get mixed up on when to use unos vs algunos vs varios. Can you either give a super-quick review or point me to a resource that contrasts these forms? Thanks so much!
"Mathematics" can be taken as a singular noun. Therefore it seems that a correct format in Spanish would be
"te gusta mathematics".
The test asked to translate "I like white wine" to Spanish, but indicated "Me gusta el vino blanco" was the correct answer. The English sentence seemed unspecific to me, as though the speaker was making a general statement about a category of wine they liked. To add an article seems to imply the speaker likes a specific kind of wine ("I like the white wine"). Is this the same implication in Spanish? Could one say "me gusta vino blanco"? Or is an article always required, and unspecific preferences would require "un/una"?
Thank you.
