Consider "review" rather than "revise"Be careful not to confuse this with acabar to express "to have just done something". See this lesson to revise this:

Unless this is a britishism I am unfamiliar with, I think you mean "review" instead of "revise".

Can these be use for agreement?

All the examples are for when someone disagrees with the first statement. Could these ever be used to express agreement?

what is the rule?

This lesson seems to be completely ambiguous: sentir - "what" we feel.

sentirse - "how" we feel, not what we feel.

Cada vez que veo esa película siento escalofríos. How do I feel? - "shivery"

Ella siente pena por la gente pobre. How do I feel? - "sympathetic"

Me siento emocionada por la generosidad de la gente. - What do I feel? - "emotion"

Surely there has to be a better set of rules for differentiating sentir from sentirse.

I'm confused about the you

¿Tiene un bolígrafo?Do you have a pen? (formal you)

From the sentence, I think it means he/she has a pen. Why would it become do you have a pen?

usage of "cosa que" for "which"

Apropos of ' "Lo que" vs "la cosa que" ', I sometimes see "cosa que" used to mean "which", as in

Querían detenerme por robo, cosa que no hice.

Is this usage correct? If so, is there a lesson that discusses it?

More examples here:

Thanks!

Para tentar a la suerte

Hola,

Why is there an 'a' is this sentence? Is suerte considered a 'person' for the personal a to apply or is it an obligatory preposition after tentar?

Gracias,

Benhur

Hay demasiada fruta en la nevera .Hay demasiada fruta en la nevera .

ıs that wrong sentence? why don't we say 'hay demasiadas frutas en la nevera'.?

because fruit is countable.ı think we should use 'many ' for countable and in spanish many is damasiada.

Suyo / suya

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,

Colin
