In the quiz the answer was con Uds but I chose what I knew wasn't the right answer ustedes because the Uds would be capitalized in the middle of the sentence. I'm pretty sure that's not correct either. Anyway, I don't think we need these kind of trick questions. My thought is that is a poorly created test question. That said, I'm interested if one ever capitalizes Uds in the middle of a sentence or if the capitalized Uds is standard for the abbreviation of usted and I am wrong here.
Hi, can we use antes and despues for dates? For example "before Friday" or "after Monday".
In the section about no porque you say: "if the causal subordinate clause is negative, it allows both the indicative and the subjunctive (without changing the meaning)."
A says that no porque must be used with the subjunctive according to the Cervantes Institute, and you (Inma) seem to agree with him, saying: "with no porque you use the subjunctive."
I just did a Kwiz where "no porque era" was a correct option.
So, what is going on there? Can no porque take both the subjunctive and the indicative or just the subjunctive?
Kwizbot: y el código de vestimenta dice que
I: y dice el código de vestimenta que
How much less preferable is my response to Kwibot's here?
Not really a question, but a statement! Now that I am halfway through level A2 I feel that the information that I need to form whole sentences is being taught, I have used other software in the past, but the depth of the courses in Kwiziq are amazing.
Please keep adding the content like you do, I feel I will be a lifetime client :-)
The kwiziq page "Ser vs Estar in Spanish: Using ser in Spanish (not estar) to talk about time, days, dates and seasons" (Ser vs Estar in Spanish: Using ser in Spanish (not estar) to talk about time, days, dates and seasons) says
Hoy es lunes. = Today is Monday. ("Today" is singular.)
but
Son las tres de la tarde. = It's three o'clock in the afternoon. ("It" is plural.)
Why are these different?
is there a rule if adjectives are before or after the noun?
Tengo dos hermosas hijas OR Tengo dos hijas hermosas?
can you use cuanto antes for as soon as possible in the last sentence?
