When do you use “de bajo de” versus just “bajo” for under? Also why does lobster not have the definite article? Thanks.

In the quiz, I got the sentence

Antes de que tú digas nada, .... ( before you say anything )

Why is 'nada' here ? Can it be 'algo' ?

Another example from the other lesson is, though I don't remember the exact phase but it's like

No creo que hayan llegado todavía.

The original phase to be denied should be 'han llegado ya'. Again, why it changed to 'todavía' ?

I agree that whole expression has something negative, which hasn't happened yet. But I'm confused, because the phase in 'que' is totally affirmative.

So the expression in 'que' isn't independent from its use ? And how ?

Which of the following articles could you use with the letter "t" in Spanish: "te"? Question 2

Does this mean I would never use EL or Un with Te?

Thank You

Aunque + Subjuntivo

In the test you say the situation is hypothetical but the answer is in the future tense. Shouldn't it be in the subjunctive?

current opinion about past completed past actions

Hola Inma,

I have a question about present tense opinions of completed past actions. I know the for the English phrase, "I don't think we have done anything wrong to regret", one says, "No creo que hayamos hecho nada malo para arrepentirnos." However, if one changes the English phrase to, "I don't think we had done anything wrong to regret", shouldn't the translation change to, "No creo que hubieramos hecho nada malo para arrepentirnos"? Google does not change el preterito perfecto de subjuntivo to el pluscuamperfecto de subjuntivo for this nuance. I think it should. Don't know if this is addressed anywhere else on this site. Can you comment for my benefit?

Saludos,

Wylie
