Miguel tiene una novia y tu tienes
demasiada ( incorrect answer). The correct answer is demasiadas
Miguel has one girlfriend and you have too many.
Una novia is singular so why is my answer demasiada wrong.
Regarding this lesson, I do not understand how to choose the correct answer in the question when the lesson says that either gender can be used depending upon some vague circumstances. How can I, the speaker, determine which gender to use? This is a complete mystery to me. Please help.
Thank you, James
I had searched for “Subjunctive” and came across something entitled “It’s complicated explaining the Subjunctive”. It seemed to be what I was looking for, so I clicked on it. However, I was taken to a lesson on facíl/difícil. Can you correct the link? Basically, I’m trying to mover beyond the long list of situations requiring the mood, and understand the underlying principle(s). Somewhere I saw an article making a distinction between the informational and the intentional. Would you have any references covering this question? Thanks very much. John Nolan
I would like to ask if this construction is often used in Spanish. Is it in some cases interchangeable with cuando? Can it also mean immediately after? E.g. : al regresar del museo me tumbé en la cama? Al plus infinitive seems to be a very convenient construction.

Hola forum y los expertos
Mi pregunta es sobre la frase 'Sin embargo, se les atribuyen aspectos positivos' y su alternativa 'Sin embargo, se les son atribuidos aspectos positivos'. Entiendo bien cómo se funciona la primera frase usado, pero no entiendo la alternativa porque confundido por la construcción gramática 'se les son atribuidos'.
Me podríais explicar la construcción gramática 'se les son atribuidos' por favor
Hi,
Is there a way to replace the above pronouns when there is little context. For example, by using 'de él, de ella ...'?
Thanks.
Saludos,

This is from a recent Kwiz. I chose hacen instead of están. When I was looking at the English clue in the parentheses, it sounded "past tense " to me. That is not the case as están is a present tense verb. What is going on here?
Extremely poor designation on this question! Either Ahí or Allí should be accepted since there is no way of knowing the even approximate distance by stating "phone conversation." A phone conversation can be held between people living in the same city, in which Ahí would be appropriate, or in another country, in which case Allí should be used.
