When talking about unknown information, use cuándo.

When talking about known information, use cuando.

Will this always work?

Thanks.

There is something wrong with your software.  I am doing SER conjugation in the present and select options are in english

Why do you say "votar por" and not "para", since the person you vote for benefits?

Luis and I haven't broken up but we gave each other some time to think.

I put "pero" because this seems like new information as much as a substitution, or at least it's a very complex substitution.

BUT, one of your example sentences for "pero" is, roughly, "I can't go out tonight, but I'll go out tomorrow." In one of your earlier replies, you give this example: "Ella no puede venir hoy sino mañana. (substituting)S he can't come today but tomorrow" 

I don't understand why these two seemingly interchangeable examples are given first as an example for "pero" in the main text and then as an example for "sino" in the comments. 

 This seems much more like a substitution, no? 

In the example, the direct object was being called for. Why use the "le" form, then?   

I wonder if the chosen translation depends on the context? 

Why isn't this en EL verano?

From the quiz:

Ben ________ la alarma.

Write ''Ben had been woken up by the alarm.

había sido despertado por

Could I also say, "A Ben le había despertado la alarma."?

Thank you.
