Spanish language Q&A Forum

Can you explain the function of “lo” in Ella lo huele todo? Is it because oler needs an object?

Doesn't coger mean the f swear word? What can I use in Latin America to say coger without getting laughed at/smacked in the face? 

Hi, 

Could you please add a lesson covering how to use the term (un) ... por ciento? 

Thank you,

Best,

Emanuel

'If Cristina had married him'  -  why is 'se hubiera casada' marked wrong?

I used to think Spanish was an easy language, but that was before I actually started learning it earnest.
I am now at 17% in level BI. Although the program reports a steady increase in my confidence, I am hanging onto it by a thread. The difficulty of the language is increasing geometrically.. I don't even want to think about levels B2 and C1

“Como”can be written with and without accent, it depends on whether it has a interrogative or comparative function.

I answered the question with the plural they form vienen and you marked it wrong and it wasn't wrong

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!

Can the speaker say, ¨Ojalá aprueba el examen¨

or does he have to say it the other way, ¨Espero aprobar el examen.¨

Thanks.
