In one quiz there was a sentence: Hace calor. Saldré al jardin un rato. Voy a salir sounds more natural and is what I hear more often from South Americans. Is the use of the future tense more common in Spain?
Why is the last sentence written as "y no abusemos de ellas"? I thought that it should be "no las abusemos". Is there a rule for when you put "de ellas" at the end of the sentence? I thought that you weren't allowed to have pronouns on the end of sentences in Spanish.
Is "se" ever used with gustar outside the case of reflexive liking each other?
Hola Inma! Why we said para el ninos not por el ninos? I am still getting confused between both of them. Thank you!
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?
Ella se mudó allí hace dos meses. Is this correct? The lesson says we can't use the preterite with hace + time.
Hello,
I get very confused when coming across these various terms that may or may not mean the same thing.
Can you please tell me how these are called in English, and if any and which ones are synonyms? and am I missing any terms that would fit in this category?
Impersonal refleja (se)
SE IMPERSONAL
Impersonal Refleja
La pasiva refleja
Thank you for your help in deciphering this.

Hola,
Would just like to say thanks for adding these preposition lessons recently (de been really helpful as well).
Hoping that definite article use is also on your upcoming list! (I find that the deployment of them isn't directly explained anywhere on Kwiqiz, and I really trust your teaching)
Gracias,
Hola,
I think “les” is an indirect object pronoun in this phrase. I thought a direct object pronoun would be used because it is “we helped them.” We are the subject they are the direct object. Can you explain?
Many thanks. John
Should the 2nd example above not have read ' you may well have been ill' without the 'as' which would be said in different circumstances e,g, you may as well have been ill for all the good you did ??
