Spanish language Q&A Forum

I am confused because we are practicing the present tense of the verb but why are the examples in the present continuous? 

Hi Inma,

Thanks a million this is really interesting and insightful to the use of Spanish. Saludos. John

At the top of my page it says: Note that this is a Europe focused lesson. Your active focus is Latin America

Obviously Latin America covers a huge range of countries/dialects but generally speaking how would this differ in Latin America?

Thanks!

I don’t understand any of this at all, whatsoever. I’ve read it many, many times, including the comments. I know there is a difference between Spain Spanish and Latin American Spanish for has/have, but how can one differentiate between them? I am so lost. 

Instead of al comienzos?

why does it show the numbers instead of spelling out the numbers?  

You might have fried too much the potatoes.

You might have fried the potatoes too much.  (Is better in English)

In the last section of the translation, "between the practical, incredulity and mysticism" is translated as "entre lo práctico, la incredulidad y el misticismo."  I don't understand why the práctico gets lo as it's article (other than because the hint said so).  Can you explain, please.  Thanks

Shouldn't the English translation listed be "We [sit] on the bench that's furthest away." Instead of "We [are sitting] on the bench that is furthest away. 

I understand that you are asking for the El Presente conjugation of sentarse in this question. I originally answered it as something like "estamos sentiando" because I saw [are sitting]. 

Because in another question a few below goes like "Ella [esta comiendo] en el restaurante." I understand this one is asking for Presente Progresivo/Continuo.
