Spanish language Q&A Forum

In an A1 writing exercise about ordering at a restaurant, I encountered the phrase "How can I help you?" with the hint "Lit. What do you wish?" I was not prepared with an answer so I learned a new phrase!

Are the phrases interchangeable? 

Thank you,

Why 'comí' una lubina, then 'tomé' un trozo, but with the same english translation?

In a quiz, I wrote "Estamos adentro de la sala." and it got marked wrong.  It said that the only correct answer was "Estamos dentro de la sala."  In the notes on this topic, it says that "adentro" and be used for "inside a place" but not for "inside a thing".  It seems like "la sala" is a place.  Why is it wrong to use "adentro" in this case?

¿Dónde_____una floristería, por favor?

I answered "está" but it's saying it's "hay" even though the examples shown in the lesson show

¿Dónde está el parque?

Why was I incorrect?

[A comment, not a question]: "Guión" is interesting because the Academia in Madrid recently ruled that it had to be spelled "guion". They added that they were not prescribing how it was supposed to be pronounced. A lot of people (in Spain; I'm not sure about América?) still pronounce it with two syllables, as if the 'o' carried an accent: 'ó'. It does become a bit problematic when you expand it to "guionista" - where there is no obvious indicator telling you to make it four syllables (i.e., separating the 'ui' from the 'o') > gui_on'ista.

llevar and tomar mean ¨take¨, are they the same?

How would you write “My leg and knee hurt”? It seems like I could write it “Me duele la pierna y la rodilla”, but not “Me duelen la pierna y la rodilla." Are either of those correct?
