Just wondering what triggers the subjunctive in this example sentence from the lesson:
Se trata de que nos reunamos para pasar un buen rato
Thanks.
Thanks!
No todavía se ha terminado el partido.No se ha terminado el partido todavía.I put argentina nacional instead of nacional argentina. Can't the adjective go after the noun here or does it have to be before it? Thanks.
Usually with expressions of uncertainty, such as "tal vez" or "quizas", we use the subjunctive. Do the expressions "a lo mejor" and "lo mismo" indicate more certainty, since they don't trigger the subjunctive?
But pronunciation: in the Spanish muy is the U treated as W as in ruido, cuido or is the U given strength and sounded separately. Is muy MWEE ot moo-ee or muu-ee? cuy is cwee or cuuee. I've always believed that Y is treated as another vocal. a e i o u and Y meaning that u before Y = W so muy = mwee
Hi,
I am trying to determine the part of speech of the phrase 'cómo reaccionaría'.
What form of the verb reaccionar is 'reaccionaría'? I cannot find it in the verb tables I use.
Thanks.

Question in A1 Focus Test
Mi vecina Patricia es ______.
Hola,
I put "maleduca" because it's a woman, it's singular and when "maleducar" is conjugated in El Presente, it comes up as "maleduca." Why is it marked wrong? Why is "maleducada" the correct answer?
In relation to that, I don't feel the question has been covered well because we have not encountered that word previously and I cannot find it in any lessons on the Lawless website.
Gracias por la respuesta!
Ese hombre me recuerda mucho a mi padre. Tiene los mismos ojos.
That man reminds me of my dad. He has the same eyes.
La escena de amor en la película me recuerda a nuestra primera cita.
The love scene in the movie reminds me of our first date.
Both of these examples use "me recuerda a"
In the quiz:
El olor de esta comida ________ mi niñez.
The smell of that food reminds me of my childhood.
The answer is: me recuerda
Could you please explain why the "a" is omitted in this example?
vado una sorpresa negativa al tener un niño en vez de una niña, porque no te lo esperabas ¿no?"
(I imagine you may have got a negative surprise
Native English speakers would say “an unwelcome surprise”, “a negative surprise” sounds very odd
