Hello,
I found the following sentence in a Spanish grammar book that I am studying: “Por que es azul el cielo?”
I thought the sentence would be: “Por que el cielo es azul?”
What kind of rule does the first sentence fall under and how would I know when to structure my sentences like that? For example, would this only happen with questions?
Muchísimas gracias!
Hola,
RE: what this means: [the] when used
It talked about the use of [the] colours
I was wondering what is the meaning of the use of brackets [ ] and ( ) in these tests.
Sometimes it seems that this means that the word in brackets is used in Spanish, but if I remember correctly,
sometimes it does not mean this.
So if there is a way to find out what these means and any others, would be very appreciated.
Thank you.
Also wishing you the best in this New Year to you and your team!

Hola Inma,
Just to let you know that the questions for this lesson are missing.
Gracias y saludos
In writing exercise "A perfect day in Granada", I am expected to use simple present tense to talk about the near future plans. And the "ir + verb" structure is not accepted as an alternative correct answer. Why?
Every episode of News in Slow Spanish starts with "Es jueves, ..." and so I got the answer to this wrong. So to clarify,
do we use "estar" plus a preposition to be less formal and it's correct, but more formal to use "ser" and that form doesn't take a preposition?
________ la discusión del otro día, Martín no me dirige la palabra.
Because of that argument the other day, Martin is not speaking to me.
Por eso de
A medida que
Porque de
Así que
Why is "porque de" incorrect?

If you wanted to say we like to run, would you still use 'gusta'? I.e. Nos gusta correr? and the same with Se gusta correr and Os gusta correr?
Gracias :)
