Your approach to address this subject is confusing. Please consider rewriting the teaching or add a new teaching in ONE lesson addressing all possibilities. Include all possible questions and answers about what date,day, month, year etc.
I miss the rationale behind this. is this something to learn 'by heart'? as in, just learn these exceptions and you're good to go?... or is there some reasoning, eg. that without the accent it would be pronounced wrong.. this because of ?
¡Chicos, esto no es justo...otra vez! ;)) Hablando de cosas tan deliciosas...me encantan los pintxos y por supuesto me encanta el vino de Rioja.
¡Bueno, eso es todo, me voy a España para comer algo de buena comida y vino! Jajajaja :))
P.S. Thank you for all the fantastic and really informative translation exercises that you provide for us. I really enjoy them!
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.

Hola todos
So I can have a better understanding of this subtle distinction between these 3 conjunctions (pero/sino/sino que), can you please confirm if I'm correct in these following 3 examples which all share the same 1st clause:
SINO >>> El médico no me recetó un jarabe __sino__ unas pastillas. (Because simple SUBSTITUTION )
PERO >>> El médico no me recetó un jarabe __pero__ con la condición que lo vea la próxima semana para una revisión. (Because MAKING A LIMITATION to the 1st clause)
SINO QUE >>> El médico no me recetó un jarabe __sino que __ me dijo que necesité una operación . (Because DIFFERENT CONJUGATED VERB IN 2ND CLAUSE)
Hopefully this can clarify these nuances in my head once and for all!
Saldudos y gracias, ~Oscar :)

Hello, I wondered if you could check if this lesson, under JUGAR there is only one option for it's meaning, but I was asked a question that may have needed a separate part of the lesson. Something about "playing with someones feelings:
Thanks
Does Spanish allow combining this construction to say:
“No se qué ves en ese chico. No es totalmente feo pero ni que fuera Brad Pitt.”
Or could/should I say, “No es feo pero (tampoco) no es como si fuera...”
Thanks!
the words "such as" in the text do not appear in the Spanish translation
Based on the answer choices, shouldn't the mini-quiz questions "Her baby doesn't eat any fruit..." read "My baby doesn't..."?
