Hello, in another context, I have come across the expression:
No le di la mano hasta que no supe su nombre.
Would it also be correct, and have the same meaning, to omit the second "no" ?
And, in the 3rd example on this page, could one also say:
No vas a salir de casa hasta que no recojas tu habitación.
?
thanks!
A suggestion, add “Cuando plus subjunctive” to the title. It would be easier to search for a lesson on when to use the subj with cuando.

Hello Kwiziq team,
As always I love your content but had a query about this particular question...
I did get the correct answer to this question (picaróna); however i was wondering why it isn’t “una poca” instead of “un poco” when the friend you’re talking about is feminine (as it’s amiga not amigo).
Here’s the question:
Tu amiga es un poco ________. Your friend is a bit mischievous.HINT: "picarón" = masculine for mischievous
Thank you in advance! Fran
In the example ' Segun lo que me dijo Manuel, todo parecia ir bien' the verb is translated in the present tense. Isn't 'parecia' the imperfect?
I don’t see the “imperfecto” conjugation available in the drop down list….what is the correct answer!
In this lesson, you have a note near the bottom saying literal translations from English to Spanish don't always work and to not say: "No puedo esperar a..." (I can't wait to...). I notice Shawn offered an option to say “no ver la hora de…”. But I haven’t found other standard or colloquial ways to say, in Spanish, “I can’t wait to…”. Can you help with that? Thanks!
What is the difference between:
ser + [noun]
and
ser un + [noun]
What is the use case for each?
What does "Niños, dejad de hablar tanto." mean?
Just wondering if we can use the preterite tense for questions or if the present perfect tense is the only option. There are two examples of questions, both using the present perfect tense: ¿Tú has montado en globo? ¿Has jugado al golf alguna vez?
Thanks.
