Cuando + subjunctiv + imperativ (=future intention?)Is it correct that when there is a imperativ in a cuando sentence it is about a future intention? The example in the lesson is "cuando vayas al mercado compra fruta y verdura". Because you want to happen it in the future it is vayas and not vas. Is that correct? I had a hard time understanding this, there is only 1 example with the imperativ, and it is not mentioned in the lesson. The rest in with the much more easier simple future.

Recordar in El Pretérito Imperfecto

In one of the quizes engish scentence "After the blow, you didn't remember anything" one is asked to conjugate recordar in the El Pretérito Imperfecto tense. I used "recordaba" but this was marked as incorrect. recordabas was marked as corrrect. Why is the "You formal" conjugation not correct for the above scentence?

Other meaning of Quedar?

Is it correct that "quedar" can also mean "to be (located)"?

E.g. In a supermarket you might ask "¿Dónde quedan los cereales?"

Lo de que María se va a vivir a Francia, ¿es verdad? Part 2

Why lo de que? Maria is a noun. Why isn't it lo de?

When there is no doubt, why the subjunctive?No dudo en absoluto que nosotros nos ________ siempre.I have absolutely no doubt that we will love each other for ever.HINT: Conjugate "querer" in El Presente Subjuntivo."No dudo que" would express certainty, so why the subjunctive here?

Why do these verbs need the irregular stem change?The pronouncitation without the change does not seem awkward to me.

Agreement of participleIt might be helpful to state explicitly (rather than just relying on the examples) that the past participle in the passive form must agree in number and gender with the object.
