“La llamaría, pero no contesta.” “La llamaría, pero no contesta.” Hola, I’m confused. I would/should/could call her but she doesn’t answer. If he called and she didn’t answer it seems “La llamé, pero no contesta” makes more sense. Muchas gracias, Shirley.

Conjugation for poner inthe presentI thought that the following quiz sentence should be conjugated for the "Me" form, which is the same as the "Yo" form for "I" and that is how I answered, selecting the form "pongo" but the robot said the correct answer is "pone"....Is this correct?
¿Me ________ un café por favor?Could I have a coffee please?(HINT: Conjugate the usted form of "poner" in El Presente)

English translation doesn't make sense

In the lesson, these sentences do not make sense to me in English:

Ofrecerían más descuentos cuando pasara la temporada de invierno.They might offer more discounts when the winter season was over.Pararíamos para descansar cuando llegáramos a Toledo.We might stop for a rest when we arrived in Toledo.
Why are pasara and llegáramos translated in English as the past tense when they refer to future events that haven't happened yet? It sounds more natural to me to say "when the winter season IS over" and "when we ARRIVE in Toledo."

Thanks again
